In its opinion, which is recommended for publication, the Court of Appeals sided with us and ruled that a patient cannot sue hospital/clinic employees who looked at patient records without the patient's permission, when information in those records was not released to anyone else inside or outside of the hospital/clinic.
It should be noted that these defendants deny that the records were viewed without the patient's knowledge/permission. They assert the lawsuit was baseless in fact. In any event, I am glad we got the lawsuit dismissed on purely legal grounds at the earliest stage possible--and then kept it dismissed.
