ATTORNEY GENERAL PROPERLY SUBPOENAED DOCUMENTS RELEVANT TO WHETHER A NON-PROFIT WHICH COUNSELS WOMEN AGAINST TERMINATING THEIR PREGNANCIES WAS PRACTICING MEDICINE WITHOUT A LICENSE, HOWEVER THE SUBPOENA MUST BE TAILORED TO PROTECT THE RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION.

The Second Department, in a full-fledged opinion by Justice Cohen, determined the attorney general properly subpoenaed documents relevant to whether the non-profit Evergreen was practicing medicine without a license, but the subpoena had to be tailored to protect the First Amendment rights of Evergreen personnel. Evergreen counsels women in an effort to convince them not to terminate their pregnancies:

​

There is no question that the Attorney General’s investigation is of the utmost importance to protecting the health and safety of women. However, it is equally important that such investigation be carried out with respect and sensitivity to the constitutional rights of those involved. While the subpoena seeks documents that generally bear a reasonable relation to the subject matter of the Attorney General’s investigation, the demands are not narrowly tailored to require production of only those documents directly related to Evergreen’s alleged unauthorized practice of medicine. Thus, we limit in scope the demands set forth in the subpoena to require the disclosure of only those documents that are substantially related to the Attorney General’s legitimate need to gather evidence to determine whether Evergreen has engaged in the unauthorized practice of medicine and which do not unnecessarily intrude on Evergreen’s First Amendment right to freedom of association. Matter of Evergreen Assn., Inc. v Schneiderman, 2017 NY Slip Op 05086, 2nd Dept 6-21-17
