Rush Limbaugh's medical records will stay sealed pending further review by the Court. The ACLU will be allowed to join the case.
An appeals court on Tuesday ordered prosecutors to turn Rush Limbaugh's medical records over to the courts and keep them sealed until further review. The court also ruled that the American Civil Liberties Union can join the conservative talk show host in fighting to keep the documents private, creating an unlikely alliance in the case.
Limbaugh's attorneys argue that the seizure violated Limbaugh's privacy and that the investigation was politically motivated. No criminal charges have been filed against Limbaugh. The ACLU joined the case Monday in support of the claim that Limbaugh's constitutional right to privacy has been violated.
