| Court Type: | District Court of Appeal |
| Court: | Fla. 5th DCA |
| Judge: | Judge: Jay P. Cohen |
| Rule(s): | Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.280; Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.350 |
| Issues: | The trial court compelled Petitioner to produce hard drives and SIM cards in her possession, and Petitioner sought a writ of certiorari, alleging that the order gave Respondent access to potentially privileged and/or private materials, and did not allow her to review the materials first before turning them over to Respondent. |
| Resolution: | The Court quashed the trial court’s order. The order did not protect against potentially confidential or privileged information, and allowed Respondent unfettered access to Petitioner’s information, thereby causing irreparable harm. |
