ORDER
R. STEVEN WHALEN, Magistrate Judge.
For the reasons and under the terms stated on the record on September 18, 2019, Defendant's Motion to Compel Discovery [ECF No. 16] is GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART.
The motion is GRANTED to the extent that the Plaintiff will sign releases for all psychiatric records, psychological records, and psychological or emotional counseling records, both pre-termination and post-termination, from the Center for Counseling, Dr. Shuja Haque, and Dr. Basivi Baddigam, as well as from any other provider of psychiatric or psychological evaluation or treatment to Plaintiff.1 The production of these records will be subject to a protective order as set forth on the record on September 18, 2019. Within seven days of this Order, the parties will submit to the Court a stipulated proposed protective order.
The motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE as to Defendant's request for other medical records.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
FootNotes
1. The Defendant also requested releases as to Dr. Parag Patel/Silver Pine Family Physicians, Henry Ford Macomb Hospital, and Henry Ford Macomb-Mt. Clemens Campus. It is unclear whether those entities treated Plaintiff for any psychological or psychiatric issues, as opposed to physical/medical problems. If they did provide psychological or psychiatric treatment, then Plaintiff will authorize the release of that information only, not physical or medical treatment.
