George Zimmerman Wants to Stop Subpoena for Medical Records

Hearing Friday as Zimmerman fights prosecution request for medical records

The former neighborhood watch leader charged with fatally shooting Trayvon Martin is objecting to prosecutors' request for his medical records.
 
George Zimmerman asked a judge this week to stop a subpoena for his medical records. A hearing is set for Friday.
 
Zimmerman says the request is too broad and will include information that is irrelevant.

Zimmerman Appeals for New Judge
 
The medical information would be made public if it is released to prosecutors under Florida's discovery rules.
 
Zimmerman is asking that the judge review the medical records and decide which, if any, should be released.
