In this case we examine a search warrant and its supporting affidavit used by the State to seize forty-two sets of patient medical records from the office of plaintiff-appellee Dr. Kerry Monick. In a special proceeding, the circuit court suppressed thirty-eight sets of these records on the ground that the warrant was unconstitutionally overbroad in scope to warrant their seizure.
