The family of the late American comedian Bob Saget has been granted a temporary injunction to block the release of records from the investigation into his death.
The emergency motion was filed on Tuesday to stop sensitive information being shared with anyone other than Saget's wife and daughters.
A court ruling stated sharing such information would cause Saget's loved ones "severe mental pain, anguish, and emotional distress".
The actor, who was known for his role as Danny Tanner in the US sitcom Full House, was found dead on 9 January in a Florida hotel room. He was 65.
A Florida medical examiner ruled his cause of death as an accidental blow to the head, likely from "an unwitnessed fall", with no evidence of illicit drugs present.
The lawsuit, brought on behalf of Saget's wife Kelly Rizzo and his daughters against the Orange County Sheriff's Office and the Medical Examiner's Office, sought to block the release of evidence taken from the scene that they say depicts Saget's body "graphically".
Documents obtained by the PA news agency stated: "The court finds that plaintiffs will suffer irreparable harm in the form of severe mental pain, anguish, and emotional distress if the requested temporary injunction is not granted."
The temporary injunction will remain in effect until further order by the court.
