Facts: Our client UL, hired firm to represent her against a complaint filed against her license by the Board. The complaint was initiated by her former employer. The complaint alleged that she misappropriated morphine. After an investigation was completed by her employer she resigned. Her resignation was not accepted, and she was terminated.
Outcome: The firm submitted a response packet to the allegations which detailed how UL did not misappropriate morphine. The firm argued that the evidence was not sufficient to prove that she took the morphine for self-use or that she failed to administrator the morphine. The firm provided evidence that UL simply failed to timely document this single administration. Based on the arguments, the Board issued UL a corrective action. This action is not public and is not subject to an open records request. The action is also non-disciplinary. After UL completes her action, the matter will be dismissed.
