Rush Limbaugh Wins Another Court Ruling

A Palm Beach County, Fla., judge ruled Tuesday that prosecutors can't question any of Limbaugh's doctors without first notifying the top radio personality.

That would allow his lawyers to fight the subpoena issued to question the doctor and to raise privacy issues before a judge, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

Limbaugh's attorney, Roy Black, maintained in a court filing that state law bars anyone from questioning a doctor about a patient's medical condition without obtaining permission from the patient.

Black also said he should be able to be present at any questioning of Limbaugh's doctors to invoke Limbaugh's "doctor-patient privilege on a question-by-question basis."
