Richter v. State Med. Bd. of Ohio

{¶ 17} I concur in the majority opinion. However, I write separately to restate that the issue before the court is not whether the board had the authority in February 1996 to permanently revoke appellant’s license. Roy v. Ohio State Med. Bd. (1995), 101 Ohio App.3d 352, 655 N.E.2d 771, answered that question in the affirmative. The question is whether the board has the authority to refuse to process an application for reinstatement by an applicant whose license was “permanently” revoked in February 1996. The majority opinion answers that question in the negative.
