Michael Jackson's nutritionist Cherilyn Lee has been served with a subpoena for the singer's medical records, the Associated Press reports.

Los Angeles County Coroner's officials are currently at Lee's Inglewood office, her spokeswoman, Belinda Foster, confirms.

Relive Jackson's most unforgettable moments.

The news comes hours after the Drug Enforcement Administration and homicide detectives raided the office of Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray, seeking "manslaughter" evidence. Lee's spokeswoman says she's cooperating with investigators, and a subpoena was only necessary because the records are protected by law.

Lee -- who treated Jackson between January and April -- has alleged the singer asked for Diprivan, a powerful anesthetic administered via IV, for help sleeping. The drug is central to the investigation of Jackson's death by cardiac arrest on June 25.

Jackson's longtime dermatologist, Arnold Klein (the biological father of the singer's eldest children, Prince, 12, and Paris, 11), was served a subpoena by an L.A. County Coroner official on July 14.
