How can I get my medical records removed from a case?
My husband has been charged with severe charges that could result un him doing a lot of time. The state was able to obtain my medical records as evidence against him even though I never consented to them looking at my medical records.. the state said they have rights to my records because the hospital is the one who called them and gave them to the pokice.. is there anything that I can do to despuye that and have my medical files removed from his case since I so have a right to privacy? The state prosecuters have been very rude theough this whole process with me and have even mocked me

The best way to prevent your medical records from being introduced into evidence with respect to your husband's crinminal matter is for you to consult with your own attorney about filing a motion to prevent the records from being introduced into evidence as a violation fo your Constitutional Right of Privacy. You attorney should coordinate matters with the presumed criminal defense attorney of your husband.
