To the extent permitted by any applicable provision of law, a
person who is the subject of a confidential record may have a copy of the
portion of that record concerning the subject disclosed to a third party. A
request for such a disclosure must be in writing and must identify the
particular record or records that may be disclosed, and the particular person
or class of persons to whom the record may be disclosed (and, where applicable,
the time period during which the record may be disclosed). The person who is
the subject of the record and, where applicable, the person to whom the record
is to be disclosed, may be required to provide proof of identity. (Additional
requirements may be necessary for special classes of records.) Appearance of
counsel on behalf of a person who is the subject of a confidential record is
deemed to constitute consent for the commission to disclose records about that
person to the person's attorney.
