Judge temporarily blocks release of records from Bob Saget's death ... (ABC News)

The family of Bob Saget has filed a lawsuit to block the release of records from his death investigation, court documents show.

On Wednesday, Circuit Court Judge Vincent Chiu granted the temporary injunction that bars the sheriff and medical examiner's office from releasing any of Saget’s death records. The comedian and actor, who was most famous for his role as Danny Tanner in the sitcom "Full House," was found dead in his Florida hotel room on Jan. 9, authorities said. The Orange County Sheriff's Office said in a statement Wednesday that while it is "sensitive" to the privacy concerns, "that must be balanced with our commitment to transparency, compliance with the law, and the public’s right to know." The court found that the family has a "clear legal right or interest" in the records, Chiu wrote in his order, "and that the public interest is served by the entry of a temporary injunction to allow the Court adequate opportunity to weigh Plaintiffs' legitimate privacy interest against the public's claim for disclosure." The chief medical examiner for Orange and Osceola counties said that the manner of death was an accident. The family's complaint contends that media outlets have filed or plan to file public records requests seeking the release of the records and argues that no "legitimate public interest would be served" by their release.

A Florida judge's ruling Wednesday on records related to Bob Saget's death investigation will keep sensitive information, including video and photos of his.

The death records pertaining to Earnhardt and Saget aren’t the only ones that have been subject to court challenges. “Anything that we do that’s paid for with taxpayer dollars is a public record, except for those things for which there are a public records exemption: photographs, video and audio recordings." Ninth Circuit Judge Vincent Chiu added in his ruling that the “plaintiffs have a clear legal right or interest in the Protected Records as the surviving spouse and children of Mr. Saget.” The family said in a statement that officials concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something and went to sleep, noting that no drugs or alcohol were involved. Nelson said that while photos and videos are exempt under Florida law, an autopsy report isn't. Rules governing the release of autopsy reports and related documents vary from state to state.
