Answer to Question 1

False: A court order for medical records requires mandatory release of patient information.

Answer to Question 2

Seeing such a note may predispose the manager to assume the patient will be difficult or hard to satisfy. This predisposition may alter the way the manager approaches the call, and may actually prejudice the manager against the patient.
