Harvey v. Cincinnati Ins. Co.

- 2017 Ohio 9226
Syllabus
The trial court erred by ordering that Appellant authorize the release of his medical records relating to his eyesight and that Appellees may then inquire about Appellant's eyesight. The release order is overbroad, as it may include medical records protected by the physician-patient privilege. And the record is insufficient to decide whether the order allowing further inquiry is justified. Judgment vacated remanded.
