1Opinion of the CourtJustice Hope
The circuit court of Lake County found attorney Marc F. Benjoya in contempt of court for failing to comply with the court’s discovery order requiring production of the results of certain polygraph tests. Benjoya appeals, contending that the discovery order was improper because (1) polygraph evidence is not discoverable; (2) the information is privileged pursuant to sections 8 — 2101 through 8 — 2105 of the Code of Civil Procedure (the Medical Records Act) (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 110, pars. 8 — 2101 through 8 — 2105); and (3) the material is covered by the attorney-client privilege.
