Newman v. Cuyler

Newman v. Cuyler
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 15, 1995 · Cobb, Dauksch, Thompson
664 So. 2d 352; 1995 Fla. App. LEXIS 12951; 1995 WL 739350 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Newman v. Cuyler

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Dr. Willie B. Newman and his professional association petition this court for a writ of certiorari to review the trial court’s order allowing Joequetta and Larry Cuyler to discover medical records belonging to other patients of Dr. Newman. The Cuylers are suing Dr. Newman for medical malpractice. We deny the writ. See Amente v. Newman, 653 So.2d 1030 (Fla. 1995) (holding that discovery request for medical records of non-party patients is appropriate where trial court determines that request is relevant and all identifying information of non-party patients is redacted from records).

PETITION DENIED.

DAUKSCH, COBB and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
