LIMBAUGH'S MEDICAL RECORDS SUMMONED
WEST PALM BEACH - Rush Limbaugh says prosecutors have subpoenaed
records from his doctors as part of the investigation into the
conservative radio commentator's prescription drug use.
Prosecutors are trying to determine whether Limbaugh visited several
doctors to illegally receive duplicate prescriptions of controlled
narcotics. Limbaugh sought treatment for his admitted addiction to
painkillers in October and has not been charged with a crime.
On Friday, the state's 4th District Court of Appeal in West Palm Beach
gave prosecutors 15 days to respond to Limbaugh's appeal of a Palm
Beach County judge's order allowing them to review his medical
records, which remain sealed.
