Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fourth Circuit.

May 30, 2001.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Allison P. Burbank, Roy M. Bowes, Bowes & Marrero, L.L.P., Gretna, Counsel for Plaintiff/Appellant.

C. Byron Berry, Jr., Philip O. Bergeron, Adams and Reese LLP, New Orleans, Counsel for Defendant/Appellee.

Court composed of Judge STEVEN R. PLOTKIN, Judge MIRIAM G. WALTZER, and Judge PATRICIA RIVET MURRAY.


PLOTKIN, Judge.

The primary issue in this appeal is whether or not the term "unprofessional conduct" as used under the Medical Practice Act, La. R.S. 37:1261 et seq., provides sufficient notice to a physician that his conduct violates this standard. Appellant, Dr. Robert Little, was found guilty of unprofessional conduct and sanctioned to five years probation of his license to practice medicine. We affirm for the reasons that follow.
