State prosecutors in Florida are moving forward with plans to obtain medical records related to Tiger Woods' DUI arrest, according to a court filing submitted Monday in Martin County Circuit Court.
The document reveals that prosecutors intend to subpoena Woods' medical records from a hospital where he purportedly received treatment following his arrest on March 27. The filing represents a significant development in the ongoing legal proceedings against the professional golfer.
The subpoena request comes nearly three months after Woods' arrest in Martin County. Prosecutors appear to be building their case by seeking access to medical documentation that may shed light on the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The use of the word "purportedly" in the court filing suggests that the treatment Woods allegedly received has not been independently confirmed by prosecutors, making the medical records a potentially important piece of evidence in the case.
Woods faces DUI charges stemming from the late March incident in Martin County. The case continues to unfold as prosecutors pursue various avenues of investigation, with the medical records subpoena representing the latest step in their efforts to gather evidence.
The Monday filing in Martin County Circuit Court marks a procedural advancement in a case that has drawn considerable public attention since Woods' arrest earlier this year.
