What’s in it

This bill relates to disclosures of psychological test material. The bill allows a person in possession of psychological test material, unless otherwise ordered by a court, to disclose the psychological test material of an individual if a demand for psychological test material has been made pursuant to a discovery request or a subpoena issued in litigation in a civil action and the cognitive abilities of the individual who is the subject of the test are at issue in the litigation. The bill provides that a court shall seal psychological test material by a protective order and bar such material from disclosure to any person not directly involved in the litigation if, in a civil action involving sexual abuse, the court receives such material from the subject of the test.
