Tiger Woods’ lawyer vows to fight subpoena for prescription records in DUI case

Tiger Woods' attorney is challenging a subpoena for the golfer's prescription drug records in relation to his recent DUI arrest in Florida. Woods was arrested in March after his SUV crashed, and authorities found pain pills and signs of impairment, though a breathalyzer test showed no alcohol. Prosecutors are seeking Woods' prescription records from Lewis Pharmacy to investigate potential drug use. Woods' attorney argues the subpoena violates his client's right to privacy and is requesting a hearing to determine its necessity. He also seeks a protective order limiting access to the records if the judge deems them necessary for the investigation. Woods has pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence.
