Opinion
ORDER
Original jurisdiction is assumed. Writ issued prohibiting Niles Jackson, District Judge, Oklahoma County, or any other assigned Judge from enforcing the order filed November 10, 1993 in Cause No. CJ-93-6324-65 on the docket of the District Court, Oklahoma County, styled Johnny Higginbotham, et al. v. Cox Cable of Oklahoma City, Inc. There is no statutory discovery method contained in the Oklahoma Discovery Code that requires a plaintiff in a personal injury lawsuit to execute in favor of the defendant a general medical authorization entitling defendant to obtain all of plaintiffs medical records. 12 O.S. § 2503(D)(3) qualifies the physician/patient privilege “to the extent that an adverse party in said proceeding may obtain relevant information regarding said condition by statutory discovery.” 76 O.S.1991 § 19(B) applies only to medical malpractice plaintiffs.
