More details to this question:
I'm trying to get my fiance a criminal attorney. I know very little about his case and can't answer most questions potential lawyers ask. I also don't want to talk over the jail phone about case information. As his power of attorney how could I go about obtaining his discovery? Its a criminal case in florida.

Many county clerk's offices have considerable information online that accesible to the general public. You need a power of attorney for that. Go to the clerk's website and look up your fiance's name in a record search. Im sure a lawyer who is interested in taking on the case might do a little leg work and get the infor themselves. Good Luck.

I believe most attorneys would not accept a power of attorney unless it stated specifivally about discovery.
The best way is probably that she direct her attorney in writing to send you a copy.
