Doe v. Borough of Barrington was an American personal privacy lawsuit that was adjudicated in the US District Court in New Jersey in 1990. In the case, the court decided that a family's privacy rights were violated when a police officer told their neighbors that the husband, John Doe, had HIV/AIDS. He had divulged that information to the officer during a search. Because the information was given to a state employee in confidence, and because there was no compelling government interest in giving that information to the neighbors, the police violated the family's privacy rights by repeating it.

Due to the release of this information, the family, referred to as Doe, suffered substantial harm due to the stigma attached then to HIV/AIDS. (en)
