Hi,
My ex-partner has recently made some pretty extreme allegations about me, accusing me of some terrible acts of child abuse.
This has come out of the blue, as we have been co-operating quite well with the kids lately.
Although I was really shocked by these allegations, they were not entirely unexpected given that my ex has experienced psychological issues on and off since I first met him.
I have recently been told that he visits a psychologist near his work, and I am worried as to how his strange paranoia may end up affecting the kids one day.
If my ex was to take me to Court (I am assuming that this will be his end-game given the nature of the allegations), can I subpoena his psychological records from his psychologist?
I am asking this question because I have been given conflicting information on this, but can remember references to client/patient privilege that I often hear on TV shows.
