658G-18]  Waiver and preclusion of privilege.  (a)  A privilege under section 658G-17 may be waived in a record or orally during a proceeding if it is expressly waived by all parties and, in the case of the privilege of a nonparty participant, it is also expressly waived by the nonparty participant.

     (b)  A person that makes a disclosure or representation about a collaborative law communication which prejudices another person in a proceeding may not assert a privilege under section 658G-17, but this preclusion applies only to the extent necessary for the person prejudiced to respond to the disclosure or representation.
