Description
This is an original action of mandamus and the question it presents is whether the trial court has power to order the plaintiff
in a personal injury action to submit to a physical examination. Robert Noren, the petitioner, is the plaintiff in an action
pending in the superior court of Cook County, in which he seeks to recover damages for personal injuries that he alleges were
suffered in an automobile accident caused by the negligence of the defendant. Howard Strong, Jr., defendant in that action, filed a verified petition in which he alleged that he needed information as
to the nature and extent of the plaintiff's injuries in order to prepare for trial, and that he had no means of getting that
information without an independent physical examination of the plaintiff. He requested the entry of an order requiring the
plaintiff to submit to a physical examination by a physician chosen by the defendant, with all incidental expenses to be borne
by defendant.
