Salon.com Arts & Entertainment | Judge considering Limbaugh records case: "Rush Limbaugh's attorney urged a judge Tuesday to limit the medical records that prosecutors can review for their investigation into whether the best-selling commentator illegally purchased painkillers.

Attorney Roy Black said the records, which were seized in 2003, should be reviewed by a judge before they are opened to prosecutors."

...

"Prosecutors seized the records after learning that Limbaugh received about 2,000 painkillers, prescribed by four doctors in six months, at a pharmacy near his Palm Beach mansion. They contend that Limbaugh engaged in 'doctor shopping,' or illegally deceived multiple doctors to receive overlapping prescriptions."
