Objecting to release of records is possible, but you would need a specific legal reason to objection. In California, a party to a lawsuit may seek any information that is either relevant to the pending lawsuit or "reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence". That is a pretty broad standard and while it often results in useless fishing expeditions, judges are reluctant to block a party from seeking information.
