A. Within thirty (30) days after the Insurance Commissioner, district attorney, Attorney General, or opposing party in a civil, criminal or administrative proceeding, serves on an insurer a written request by certified mail for disclosure of an insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document under this act, the company that prepared or caused the document to be prepared may file with the appropriate court a petition requesting an in camera hearing on whether the insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document or portions of the document are privileged or subject to disclosure. Failure by the company to file a petition waives the privilege for this request only. B. A company asserting the insurance compliance self-evaluative privilege in response to a request for disclosure under this act shall include in its request for an in camera hearing all of the information set forth in subsection E of this section. C. Upon the filing of a petition under this section, the court shall issue an order scheduling, within forty-five (45) days after the filing of the petition, an in camera hearing to determine whether the insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document or portions of the document are privileged under this section or subject to disclosure. D. The court, after an in camera review, may require disclosure of material for which the privilege in Section 1 of this act is asserted if the court determines, based upon its in camera review, that any one of the conditions set forth in subsection B of Section 2 of this act is applicable as to a civil or administrative proceeding or that any one of the conditions set forth in subsection C of Section 2 of this act is applicable as to a criminal proceeding. Upon making such a determination, the court may only compel the disclosure of those portions of an insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document relevant to issues in dispute in the underlying proceeding. Any compelled disclosure will not be considered to be a public document or be deemed to be a waiver of the privilege for any other civil, criminal, or administrative proceeding. A party unsuccessfully opposing disclosure may apply to the court for an appropriate order protecting the document from further disclosure. E. A company asserting the insurance compliance self-evaluative privilege in response to a request for disclosure under this act shall provide to the Insurance Commissioner, district attorney, Attorney General, or opposing party in a civil, criminal or administrative proceeding, as the case may be, at the time of filing any objection to the disclosure, all of the following information: 1. The date of the insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document; 2. The identity of the entity conducting the audit; 3. The general nature of the activities covered by the insurance compliance self-evaluative audit; and 4. An identification of the portions of the insurance compliance self-evaluative audit document for which the privilege is being asserted.
