Question: Divorce, Marriage, Alimony - Michigan

Asked on 10/6/2009
Can a patient receive substance abuse treatment or counseling without a medical record being kept?
I am in a child custody dispute with my husband regarding his substance abuse. He has already received treatment 2 years ago and is relapsed. He has agreed to substance abuse counseling as a part of our custody arrangement, but will not allow it in the order or sign any document pertaining to his agreement. Can he ask that no record be kept of his s/a counseling? How can I be protected if another incident occurs with my minor son due to his use?

He can ask under the court rules that the custody agreement, or the relevant part thereof,  be held under seal so that it is not a  part of the public record.
