Ex parte Tombigbee Healthcare Authority d/b/a Bryan W. Whitfield Memorial Hospital (IN RE: T.N., an individual; A.V., an individual; O.J., an individual; and I.P., an individual v. Leland Bert Taylor, Jr., and Tombigbee Healthcare Authority d/b/a Bryan W. Whitfield Memorial Hospital)
On Application for Rehearing
APPLICATION OVERRULED. NO OPINION.
The original opinion in this case was released on December 15, 2017, before my appointment to the Court. I have reviewed the materials filed on original submission, along with the filings made in connection with the application for a rehearing filed by Tombigbee Healthcare Authority d/b/a Bryan W. Whitfield Memorial Hospital. I agree with the Court's opinion with the exception of its denial of the Authority's request for a protective order pursuant to § 22-21-8(b), Ala. Code 1975. As to that issue, I agree with Justice Shaw's dissent. Accordingly, I would grant the application for a rehearing and issue a writ of mandamus directing the circuit court to issue a protective order.
SELLERS, Justice.
Shaw and Mendheim, JJ., dissent.
