Bob Saget’s family is taking legal action against Florida authorities in hopes of keeping the comedian’s death records private.
In court documents filed on Tuesday, the Full House lead’s wife Kelly Rizzo and his daughters Aubrey, Lara, and Jennifer (whom he shared with his first wife Sherri Kramer) are suing Orange County Sheriff John Mina and the District Nine Medical Examiner’s Office to prevent the release of any records related to Saget’s death.
This legal move comes as an effort to stop outlets from reporting further on the star’s passing, as the complaint claims “certain news and media outlets have filed or plan to file public records requests.” The family would like to keep all those materials confidential, and the attorneys representing them claim that Bob’s family will “suffer irreparable harm in the form of extreme mental pain, anguish, and emotional distress” if officials allow the release of the reports.
They are asking for the court to grant a declaratory relief so that the docs remain “confidential and exempt from disclosure under Florida law.” Related: What TV Dad Bob Saget Taught Jodie Sweetin About Loss Speaking to E!
