of filing a Second Amended Complaint and narrowing the claims in this lawsuit. On November 4, 2004, Defendant informally produced copies of Plaintiff's medical records to Plaintiff's counsel, except for any records containing laboratory results. 2. Shortly thereafter, the parties jointly moved for entry of a Protective Order
concerning disclosure of medical records with laboratory results. 3. The Court granted the parties' Stipulated Motion for Entry of Protective Order on
November 16, 2004. (Docket No. 106). 4. On May 22, 2005, Plaintiff served Defendants with a copy of Plaintiff's First Set
of Interrogatories and Requests for Production. 5. The Bureau of Prisons has identified information that is responsive to Plaintiff's
discovery requests. However, some of this information contains Plaintiff's psychological records. Like medical laboratory results, the Bureau does not provide actual copies of psychological records to inmates, although inmates are allowed to review these records. 6. Defendant objects to the disclosure of Plaintiff's psychological records, unless the
disclosure of this information is authorized and governed pursuant to a Protective Order. This Protective Order would prohibit Plaintiff's counsel from producing copies of any psychological records to Plaintiff. However, this Protective Order is narrowly tailored such that it would not prohibit Plaintiff's counsel from disclosing the information contained in those psychological records to Plaintiff. 7. 2006. The deadline for Defendants to respond to Plaintiff's discovery requests is June 7,
