Aria (1991)

Stephen D. Newman: Dr. Seliger

Quotes 

• Dr. Seliger : Unfortunately, it falls under the category of privilege.

  Mike Logan : Whose? I mean, the girl's dead.

  Dr. Seliger : Privilege does survive the death of a patient.

  Phil Cerreta : Does that include prescription history, doctor?

  Dr. Seliger : Priscilla asked me for something a few weeks ago. I told her I didn't think it was necessary.

  Mike Logan : Yeah, because her friends are telling us she didn't even like painkillers.

  Dr. Seliger : I'd say that was an accurate statement. Really, I wish I could help.

  Phil Cerreta : Doctor, we understand that. Now bottom line, we just want to know who can waive that privilege.

  Dr. Seliger : If the court appoints a personal representative, they'd have the authority to sign a waiver on Priscilla's behalf.

  Phil Cerreta : Ah.

  Dr. Seliger : It would probably be her mother.
