(DE 35) is GRANTED IN-PART AND DENIED IN-PART, and Defendant’s Motion to Compel
(DE 43) is GRANTED.
I. 	BACKGROUND
Plaintiff was a cruise ship passenger on the Carnival Magic (DE 22 ¶¶ 8, 13). 	Plaintiff
filed this lawsuit against Defendant asserting claims arising out of an alleged sexual assault by
Defendant’s former employee onboard the ship (id. ¶¶ 66-145). Plaintiff alleges that Defendant is
strictly liable for the sexual assault and false imprisonment by its employee, and for intentional
infliction of emotional distress (id. ¶¶ 55-87). 	Plaintiff also brings negligence claims against
Defendant for failure to warn, negligent security, and negligent selection/hiring, training, and
retention (id. ¶¶ 88-145). 	Specifically, Plaintiff alleges she was sexually assaulted and falsely
imprisoned by a former Carnival crewmember after she agreed to go into his cabin on March 22,
2024 (id. ¶¶ 18-22, 66-74). According to Plaintiff, she suffered damages, including but not limited
to psychological damages (id. ¶¶ 65, 74, 87, 96, 99).
Defendant disputes Plaintiff’s claims and maintains that Plaintiff voluntarily went to the
crewmember’s cabin and engaged in consensual sexual actions while she was there (DE 26 at 10).
Defendant interviewed the crewmember as part of its investigation into Plaintiff’s allegations, and
he maintained that all the actions inside his cabin were consensual (id.). 	The crewmember’s
account is reflected in a written witness statement and on body worn camera video (“BWC”)
obtained by Defendant’s security team during its investigation into the incident (DE 42 at 4).
According to the Amended Complaint, Plaintiff did not report the alleged sexual assault while on
the cruise ship (DE 22 ¶ 25). 	Defendant was notified of the assault by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (“FBI”) (DE 49). Defendant corresponded with the FBI via e-mail and provided the
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 2 of 14
3
FBI with information and documents about the alleged sexual assault, including the crewmember’s
written witness statement (DE 42 at 2).
In her Motion, Plaintiff seeks to compel production of the crewmember’s written witness
statement that Defendant provided to the FBI (DE 35). 	Plaintiff argues that Defendant’s
production of the crewmember’s statement to the FBI constitutes waiver of the work-product
doctrine (id.). Additionally, Plaintiff seeks to compel the inspection of a portion of Defendant’s
ship in relation to her negligent security claim. Plaintiff seeks to have her security expert inspect
the ship from the elevator where Plaintiff and the crewmember met on the night of the incident to
the crewmember’s cabin, where the alleged assault occurred, including inside the cabin.
Defendants contends that the crewmember’s written witness statement is protected by the
work product doctrine, and Defendant has not waived that protection (DE 42). Defendant argues
that it disclosed the information from its investigation in a cooperative manner to assist the FBI
with a criminal prosecution (id.). Defendant also objects to the inspection of the ship as irrelevant
and beyond a reasonable scope allowed under Rule 26(b)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure (id.). 	Defendant claims the request is overboard and irrelevant, as there are no
allegations that related to the designs of the hallways, the Lido Deck, or where Plaintiff and the
crewmember met (id.).
With respect to Plaintiff’s claimed psychological damages, Defendant’s Motion seeks to
compel Plaintiff to submit to a Rule 35 psychological examination with its neuropsychologist
expert, Dr. Kaia Calbeck (DE 43). 	Defendant represented that Dr. Calbeck’s examination will
consist of an oral portion and a written examination consisting of the following measures: (a)
Personal Assessment Inventory (PAI), (b) Symptoms Inventory Malingering Scale (SIMS), (c)
Trauma System Inventory-2 (TSI-2), (d) Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and (e) Beck Depression
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 3 of 14

Inventory (BDI) (id. ¶ 12(a)-(3)). 	At the November 5, 2025 hearing, Plaintiff’s counsel
represented that she is willing to submit to the examination; however, Plaintiff requested that she
should be allowed to audio or video record Dr. Calbeck’s psychological examination of her.
Defendant maintains that Plaintiff is not permitted to record, whether by audio or video, any
portion of Dr. Calbeck’s medical examination, as that is precluded under Rule 35.2
II. 	LEGAL STANDARD
Rule 26(b)(3) codifies the work product doctrine within the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure, which govern the scope of a discovery in a case:
(A) Documents 	and 	Tangible 	Things. Ordinarily, 	a 	party 	may 	not 	discover
documents and tangible things that are prepared in anticipation of litigation or for
trial by or for another party or its representative . . . . But, subject to Rule 26(b)(4),
those materials may be discovered if:
(i) they are otherwise discoverable under Rule 26(b)(1); and
(ii) the party shows that it has substantial need for the materials to prepare
its case and cannot, without undue hardship, obtain their substantial
equivalent by other means.
(B) Protection Against Disclosure. If the court orders discovery of those materials,
it must protect against disclosure of the mental impressions, conclusions, opinions,
or legal theories of a party’s attorney . . . concerning the litigation.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(3). “‘[D]istrict courts are entitled to broad discretion in managing pretrial
discovery matters,’ including when ruling on the applicability of the work-product doctrine.”
Republic of Ecuador v. Hinchee, 741 F.3d 1185, 1188 (11th Cir. 2013) (citations omitted).
“Generally, the work product protection is waived when protected materials are disclosed in a

materials, scoring sheets, raw data, and any and all other materials used or created during the
compulsory medical examination based on the agreement reached by the Parties at the November
5, 2025 hearing. If the Parties are unable to resolve the disclosure of the materials, Plaintiff may
raise this issue in an appropriate motion to the Court.

manner which is either inconsistent with maintaining secrecy against opponents or substantially
increases the opportunity for a potential adversary to obtain the protected information.” Niagara
Mohawk Power Corp. v. Stone & Webster Eng’g Corp., 125 F.R.D. 578, 590 (N.D.N.Y. 1989).
“Although the party seeking work-product protection bears the initial burden for establishing that
the documents are entitled to such protection, after that initial burden is met, the burden shifts to
the party asserting waiver to show that the party claiming the privilege has waived its right to do
so.” United States Sec. & Exch. Comm’n v. Herrera, 324 F.R.D. 258, 262 (S.D. Fla. 2017).
III. 	DISCUSSION
A. PLAINTIFF’S M OTION TO COMPEL
The Parties agreed as a threshold issue that the crewmember’s written witness statement is
privileged pursuant to the work product doctrine. Instead of attacking the privileged nature of the
crewmember’s statement, Plaintiff asserts Defendant waived its claim to work-product privilege
by disclosing the crewmember’s statement in a way that would substantially increase the
opportunity for potential adversaries to obtain the information. Plaintiff further argues that even
if Defendant did not waive work-product privilege for the document, she has a substantial need to
obtain the crewmember’s statement.3
Turning to the first issue, courts look at several factors to determine whether a party’s
voluntary disclosure of a document to a third-party waives a claim of work-product privilege.
“Attorney work product protection extends to material obtained or prepared by counsel in the
course of their legal duties provided that the work was done with an eye toward litigation.”
Drummond Co., Inc. v. Conrad & Scherer, LLP, 885 F.3d 1324, 1334–35 (11th Cir. 2018) (citation
3 In the briefing, Plaintiff also asserted that Defendant’s Amended Privilege Log was deficient. At
the November 5, 2025 hearing, Plaintiff withdrew this assertion. 	Therefore, the Court does not
address the sufficiency of Defendant’s Amended Privilege Log.
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 5 of 14

omitted). 	“The purpose of this protection is to protect the integrity of the adversary process by
allowing a lawyer to work ‘with a certain degree of privacy, free from unnecessary intrusion by
opposing parties and their counsel.’” Id. (quoting Hickman v. Taylor, 329 U.S. 495, 510 (1947)).
However, “[w]ork-product protection is waived when protected materials are disclosed in a way
that substantially increases the opportunity for potential adversaries to obtain the information.”
Stern v. O’Quinn, 253 F.R.D. 663, 681 (S.D. Fla. 2008) (citation and quotation omitted). But, “not
every situation in which work-product materials are disclosed warrants a finding of waiver.
Rather, the circumstances surrounding the disclosure are key to determining whether an actual
waiver of the work-product protection has occurred.” Id.
In Brown v. NCL (Bahamas), Limited., the court analyzed whether a defendant cruise line
waived work-product privilege for documents it voluntarily provided to a law enforcement agency.
155 F.Supp.3d 1335 (S.D. Fla. Dec. 9, 2015). 	There, the cruise line took a written witness
statement from a passenger who allegedly attacked another passenger. Id. at 1337. The cruise line
asserted that the written witness statement was protected from disclosure to plaintiff by the work
product doctrine. 	Id. 	The plaintiff alleged that the cruise line waived the privilege when it
voluntarily produced the statement to law enforcement – in that case, the port police. Id. The “key
issues [were] whether the disclosure to law enforcement was compelled, whether [Defendant]
waived the protection by disclosing it, and, if there is no waiver, whether Plaintiff has demonstrated
substantial need and ‘cannot, without undue hardship, obtain its substantial equivalent by other
means.’” Id. at 1338 (citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(b)(3)(A)). The court disagreed with plaintiff
and held that the cruise line did not waive its work product privilege by voluntarily providing the
statement to law enforcement and that plaintiff did not demonstrate a substantial need for the
statement. Id. at 1343. In reaching that conclusion, the court explained that there was nothing in
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 6 of 14
7
the record to suggest that the defendant “was in an adversarial relationship” with law enforcement
when it provided a copy of the statement. 	Id. at 1341 (stating “the fundamental factor” in the
court’s analysis was “no adversarial relationship”) (emphasis omitted).
Plaintiff attempts to distinguish the facts of this case from Brown, because the alleged
assailant in Brown was another passenger, whereas in this case, the alleged assailant was a
crewmember. Plaintiff asserts that since the alleged assailant was a crewmember, Defendant was
in an adversarial relationship with law enforcement and thus waived its work product privilege for
any documents it provided to the FBI. Plaintiff relies heavily on a single sentence in Brown, which
opined, “If the alleged attacker had been a crewmember, then NCL’s motivation may have been
different and the nature of the relationship with port police likely would have been different as
well.” 	Id. at 1341. 	Defendant argues that the Brown court determined the “purpose” of the
defendant’s disclosure was to help law enforcement, which is also applicable in this case (DE 42
at 2-1) (emphasis in original).
Notwithstanding the dicta in Brown, the legal framework and analysis set forth in that
case does not compel a different result on the instant facts. Even though the crewmember accused
of committing the sexual assault was Defendant’s employee, the cruise line was not inherently in
an adversarial relationship vis-à-vis law enforcement. 	“In the context of work product, the
question is not, as in the case of attorney-client privilege, whether confidential communications
are disclosed, but to whom the disclosure is made – because the protection is designed to protect
an attorney’s mental processes from discovery by adverse parties.” Id. at 1338-39 (emphasis in
original). Indeed, “[w]ork product protection is waived when protected materials are disclosed in
a way that ‘substantially increases the opportunity for potential adversaries to obtain the
information.’” 	Id. at 1339. 	Plaintiff has not demonstrated how Defendant’s disclosure of the
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 7 of 14
8
crewmember’s statement to the FBI in a criminal investigation substantially increased potential
adversaries’ opportunity to obtain the information. 	Notably, the allegations in this case do not
raise any specter that Defendant, the cruise line, is criminally liable for the alleged sexual assault
or that the FBI was investigating Defendant. To the contrary, all representations indicate that the
crewmember’s conduct was outside his proscribed employment duties.
As Brown counsels, the most important factor is whether law enforcement and Defendant
were adversaries at the time of disclosures, and there is nothing here to suggest that they were. See
id. (“[D]etermining whether [Defendant’s] production of the work product statement to [law
enforcement] waived the protection depends in part on whether the disclosures was [sic] compelled
and, if not, the purpose of the disclosure (i.e. to help [Defendant] itself or to assist the [FBI] in a
cooperative, non-adversarial effort in its investigation of others).”); see also Meyer v. NCL
(Bahamas), Ltd., No. 16-CIV-23238, 2017 WL 3396410, at *5 (S.D. Fla. Aug. 8, 2017) (finding
no waiver of the work-product privilege when the defendant produced a witness statement to the
FBI, as there was no adversarial relationship between the law enforcement and the defendant);
United States v. Zahn, No. 22-CR-23, 2022 WL 17811346, at *10 (M.D. Fla. Dec. 19, 2022)
(same). 	Nothing in this record indicates that Defendant’s production of the crewmember’s
statement to the FBI was compelled, that Defendant was also a target of the FBI’s investigation,
or that Defendant’s production of the statement was self-serving or would somehow improve its
own position with law enforcement. To the contrary, Defendant submitted a Declaration stating
that the crewmember’s statement was provided to the FBI to assist in their investigation of serious
criminal allegations and was done without the intent to waive the work product privilege (see
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 8 of 14

generally DE 42-2).4 Where Defendant and the FBI were both investigating the alleged sexual
assault of Plaintiff, and Defendant provided documents to the FBI in furtherance of that
investigation, their interests were not adverse. See Integon Nat’l Ins. Co. v. Dickerson, No. 19-
CIV-201, 2020 WL 6335944, at *5 (N.D. Ga. June 18, 2020) (finding insurance company did not
waive work product protection when it provided documents to the fire department investigating
the arson of the insured’s home).
On the other hand, a waiver occurs when a party, who is the target of a law enforcement
investigation, voluntarily discloses documents to the law enforcement agency. See United States
v. Bergonzi, 216 F.R.D. 487, 498 (N.D. Cal. 2003) (finding a waiver of work-product when a
company disclosed information to the Government “despite the fact that the Government was
investigating the Company”). For example, courts have found that if a party discloses documents
to law enforcement in an effort to provide substantial assistance, and thus receive a more lenient
punishment, the party waives its claim to work product protection for those documents. See, e.g.,
In re Chiquita Brands Int’l, Inc. Alien Tort Statute & S’holder Derivative Litig., 270 F. Supp. 3d
1332, 1340 (S.D. Fla. 2017) (“Because it produced the documents voluntarily to the DOJ in the
hopes of receiving more lenient treatment, compromising the asserted confidentiality of the
documents for its own benefit, and because it decided not to assert any privileges when it was
appropriate to do so, Chiquita has waived the attorney-client and work product privileges over the
documents at issue.”); Westinghouse Elec. Corp. v. Republic of Philippines, 951 F.2d 1414, 1428
(3d Cir. 1991) (finding Westinghouse and law enforcement were adversaries, as “[u]nlike a party
who assists the government in investigating or prosecuting another, Westinghouse was the target
4 In Brown, the court considered that the cruise line expected the information it gave to the port
police would “remain protected from disclosure,” and that expectation was “reasonable under the
circumstances.” 155 F. Supp. 3d at 1342.
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 9 of 14
10
of investigations conducted by the agencies” (citation omitted)); In re Initial Pub. Offering Sec.
Litig., 249 F.R.D. 457, 465 (S.D.N.Y. 2008) (finding Credit Suisse in an adversarial position to
law enforcement where “the SEC and USAO were investigating the possibility of wrongdoing,
and Credit Suisse disclosed the Memoranda to escape or limit liability”). 	There is no such
motivation for Defendant based on the information that has been provided in this case.
Finally, Defendant argues that there are important policy reasons for upholding work
product protection when a cruise line voluntarily cooperates with law enforcement in the
investigation of a third-party by providing information otherwise protected from disclosure. 	If
such voluntary cooperation waives the cruise line’s work product protection when the cruise line
is not the subject of the investigation, it could have a chilling effect on the cruise line’s willingness
to assist law enforcement in prosecuting offenses perpetrated onboard the ship, where law
enforcement has a diminished ability to investigate in the absence of the cruise line’s cooperation.
See Brown, 155 F. Supp. 3d at 1342 (stating that the cruise line “was effectively acting like a good
corporate citizen who cooperates with law enforcement and voluntarily produces information
(even work product) in response to a police request” in finding the cruise line and the port police
were not adversaries (emphasis in original)). Accordingly, for the reasons stated above and at the
November 5, 2025 hearing, the Court finds that Defendant did not waive its work-product privilege
by voluntarily providing the crewmember’s statement to the FBI.
Next, Plaintiff argues that there is a substantial need to obtain the crewmember’s statement
and that she would suffer undue hardship if not given access to the statement. 	Yet, no such
hardship is supported by the record. Defendant represented at the November 5, 2025 hearing and
in its Amended Privilege Log that the crewmember’s statement is a two-page handwritten
document (DE 35-2 at 3). Plaintiff has not articulated why she cannot obtain the crewmember’s
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 10 of 14
11
account of his interaction with Plaintiff from other sources, beyond her conclusory assertions of
hardship. 	Importantly, the BWC video of the crewmember’s verbal statements regarding the
alleged assault has already been produced to Plaintiff. 	Moreover, Plaintiff can depose the
crewmember as part of discovery in this matter. See Brown, 155 F.Supp.3d 1335 at 1343 (pointing
out that “in run-of-the-mill situations, no showing of special need can be made’ and noting that
‘[t]he court’s response is generally: do you own work. Go and interview the witness yourself or
go and take the deposition of party witness or subpoena the recalcitrant witness.’” (citation
omitted)). 	In light of the discovery that has already been produced and the tools available to
Plaintiff in the discovery process, there has been no showing of substantial need to overcome the
work-product privilege.
For the reasons stated herein and on the record at the November 5, 2025 hearing, Plaintiff’s
Motion to Compel is GRANTED IN-PART and DENIED IN-PART. 	Plaintiff’s request to
compel the crewmember’s written statement and cover email from Defendant to the FBI is
DENIED. Further, for the reasons stated on the record at the November 5, 2025 hearing, Plaintiff’s
request to inspect the areas on the cruise ship discussed at the hearing is GRANTED. Plaintiff’s
security expert shall be permitted to inspect the Carnival Magic from where Plaintiff and the
crewmember met at the elevator on the night of the alleged incident to the area of his cabin,
including the hallway leading to the cabin. The parties shall confer on a reasonable time and
manner for the inspection.
B. DEFENDANT ’S M OTION TO COMPEL
Defendant filed its own Motion to Compel, challenging conditions Plaintiff requested with
respect to a compulsory medical exam. For instance, Plaintiff asserts that she will be prejudiced
if the examination is not audio or video recorded, because her counsel and her retained expert will
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 11 of 14
12
not be able to see how the oral history was taken and how the tests were administered. Defendant
asserts that allowing Plaintiff to record the examination runs afoul of Rule 35 and its intent of
placing the parties on an even playing field. Further, Defendant maintains that the recording of
the examination could affect the unhindered flow of information.
“Under Rule 35 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, a court may order a party whose
physical condition is in controversy to submit to a physical examination by a suitably licensed or
certified examiner.” Hacking v. United States, No. 19-CIV-14449, 2021 WL 1342494, at *2 (S.D.
Fla. Feb. 16, 2021) (citation omitted). The rule “is silent on who may attend a compulsory medical
examination.” Goggins v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., No. 10-CIV-00826, 2011 WL 1660609,
at *2 (M.D. Fla. May 3, 2011) (citation omitted). “[T]he majority of federal courts have held that
third parties should be excluded absent special circumstances.” Calderon v. Reederei Claus-Peter
Offen GmbH & Co., 258 F.R.D. 523, 526 (S.D. Fla. 2009) (citation omitted). 	“In evaluating
whether to permit the presence of a third party, the party seeking to have the observer present bears
the burden of demonstrating ‘good cause’ for the request pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b), as the
presence of a third party is not typically necessary or proper.” Gordon v. United States, No. 20-
CIV-14118, 2021 WL 879204, at *2 (S.D. Fla. Mar. 8, 2021) (citation omitted).
Courts in this District have routinely declined requests for a third party to attend or record
a Rule 35 examination. 	In D.S. v. Carnival Corporation, which also involved a psychological
examination of a plaintiff by the same expert in this case, Dr. Kaia Calbeck, the court held that
plaintiff’s counsel could not attend or record the medical examination 24-CIV-24428, DE 67 at 2-
3 (S.D. Fla. May 19, 2025). The court also ruled that “neither a videographer nor a court reporter
may be present.” Id. at 3. Similarly, in Davanzo v. Carnival Cruise Lines, the court found, “[T]he
presence of an attorney and video equipment at a compulsory medical examination would be
Case 1:25-cv-21095-WPD Document 52 Entered on FLSD Docket 12/08/2025 Page 12 of 14
13
unwieldly, problematic, and unnecessary.” 14-CIV-20153, 2014 WL 1385729, (S.D. Fla. April 9,
2014).
Plaintiff offers no reason why the Court should deviate from the weight of authority in this
District that finds a plaintiff is not entitled to have a third-party present or record a Rule 35
examination. 	As explained in Davanzo, there are several concerns: (1) the attendance of an
attorney may well impede the doctor’s ability to conduct a comprehensive, orderly examination
and to ask all the questions he or she might otherwise ask; (2) the presence of a videographer, court
reporter, or other third-party could easily undermine the doctor’s ability to comfortably conduct a
physical examination; and (3) the videotaping of the examination could quickly hinder the doctor’s
ability to conduct and complete the examination and could also generate an awkward atmosphere.
Id. at *3-5. The Court finds the same concerns applicable here, which are magnified by the nature
of the circumstances in this case and the type of examination – a psychological examination of a
plaintiff alleging emotional damages from a sexual assault. 	Therefore, Defendant’s Motion to
Compel (DE 43) is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall attend her medical examination with Defendant’s
neuropsychologist, and Plaintiff is not permitted to audio or video record any of the examination.
IV. 	CONCLUSION
For the reasons discussed above and on the record during the November 5, 2025 hearing,
Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel (DE 35) is GRANTED IN-PART AND DENIED IN-PART.
Additionally, Defendant’s Motion to Compel (DE 43) is GRANTED. 	The Court ruled during
November 5, 2025 hearing, and the Court’s rulings are effective as of that date. To the extent the

Court made additional or more detailed rulings on the record that are not memorialized in this
written Order, those rulings are binding on the Parties as set forth on the record.
