Ziegler v. Superior Court

This is the second occasion that the parties have been before this court on a special action. The petitioner and the real parties in interest are plaintiff and defendants respectively in a medical malpractice action. The medical charts of 24 previous patients have become an evidentiary issue in the action. On September 2, 1981, the respondent court ordered the respondent doctors to disclose the names of all 24 patients to the petitioner.
