I respectfully dissent. I would grant cer-tiorari and quash so much of the order as requires the State to produce death penalty evaluation forms in five active first degree murder cases. These are clearly work product and do not become public record until the conclusion of the case. State v. Kokal, 562 So.2d 324 (Fla.1990); § 119.07(3)(n), Fla. Stat. (1993); see also Walton v. Dugger, 634 So.2d 1059 (Fla.1993); Tal-Mason v. Satz, 614 So.2d 1134 (Fla. 4th DCA), review denied, 624 So.2d 269 (Fla.1993).
