Epstein #76318-054 Medical/Mental Health Records From To Date 2019/08/23 09:15 Subject: Epstein #76318-054 Medical/Mental Health Records Attachments: TEXT.htm, Certification of Identify Form.pdf Good morning I spoke with folks here and confirmed we can proceed under our usual procedure for releasing medical/psych records to defense counsel. Accordingly, please send me a cover letter confirming you're defense counsel of record, the attached certification of identity, and a Rule 17 subpoena (no need to be so-ordered; a clerk's subpoena is fine). Normally we would require a HIPAA release as well, but privacy rights don't survive death in this context. Once I receive the certification, letter, and subpoena,, I will have the USAO's Civil Division authorize the records release as wall counsel pursuant to United States ex rel. Touhy v. Regan, 340 U.S. 462 (1951) and the associated regulations. Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns. Thank you, Staff Attorney CLC New York Metropolitan Correctional Center 150 Park Row New York, NY 10007 p: 646-836- f: 646-836-7665 Page 12855 DOJ-OGR-00023952
