A few days ago, Richard Kaul, M.D. informed us that the U.S. Supreme Court has docketed for consideration his writ of mandamus in the matter of Richard Arjun Kaul v Christopher J. Christie (16-CV-02364).
Kaul wants “$28,000 trillion” in financial damages resulting from what he calls the “illegal revocation” of his medical license by the state of New Jersey.
He is asking the Court to take up his lawsuit with 22 motions for summary judgement against former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners, Warren Buffet, Greg Przybylski, M.D., the North American Spine Society, the American Medical Association, various insurance companies, educational institutions, health systems and journalists.
Kaul had his medical license revoked by the state of New Jersey in 2014. He then sued the defendants.
“Gross and Repeated Malpractice, Negligence, and Incompetence”
A U.S. Federal Judge, Kevin McNulty, dismissed the case, writing that the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners revoked Kaul’s license because they found that “Dr. Kaul’s performance of spine surgeries on 11 patients without proper training and experience constituted gross and repeated malpractice, negligence, and incompetence.” The Board further imposed the statutory maximum fine of $20,000 for each of the 15 counts of malpractice and misconduct charged, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. All told, the Board imposed $475,422.32 in civil penalties, fees, and costs.
“Racketeering, Evidence Tampering, Perjury and Obstruction of Justice”
Kaul claims his evidence “proves that the defendants, a collection of influential and wealthy neurosurgeons, insurance companies and hospitals engaged in prolonged patterns of racketeering, evidence tampering, mail fraud, wire fraud, perjury and obstruction of justice. In addition to the defendants’ crimes, this case has exposed judicial corruption by the defendants of the district court judges, and led to the filing by Kaul, on April 4, 2019, of a lawsuit against Democratic Party Leader, Senator Charles E. Schumer, the judge’s brother-in-law, and others.”
Kaul’s email to us states other forms of relief sought in the case pertain to political campaign finance reform and a “Reformation of American Medical Boards.”
He says there are currently “over four hundred (400) physician suicides annually in the United States, with the majority being related to corruption within state medical boards and the for-profit Federation of State Medical Boards. Kaul and Dr. Arnold Feldman, an internationally recognized pioneer in minimally invasive spine surgery, will be initiating legal action against these entities to effectuate a change in the process of physician regulation in the United States, to mitigate the physician suicide epidemic.”
Next, the Supreme Court will determine if Kaul’s filing meets all the requirements for a hearing by the Court. We’ve been in touch with the Court and they promise to keep us posted.
I hope he prevails, this racket against Drs and Nurses, and the licensing boards needs to end. Abuse of power, and discretion. The boards target individuals, based on reporting unsafe practices , or whistleblowing. which protects the public . The Boards have taxpayers UNLIMITED tax payers funds, (and the majority of the people paying have no idea what is really going on) and feel that they are weeding out dangerous Drs.
The boards will take anyone willing to lie and put their statements in a notice of charges and opinion from an ADmin Law Judge who never rules against a board, and put them on www. People read it and think it has to be the truth , nothing can be further ! Sociopaths that get on the board of these agencies.
There are no real details of the individual cases against the good doctor in this article for anyone to truly grasp all that is in play. While it is easy to say the defendants are horrible people, what actually occurred in each situation?
Equally, it could be easy to say the doctor did wrong, but yet again, this article provides no clear details to fully understand the overall case. It is merely implying one side of what is a huge court case.
Chronic pain patients, of which I am one, have been unjustly targeted since at least 2015 when the sick and disgusting CDC Guidelines were being developed. For decades the medical system has consistently failed chronic pain patients by providing a poor pain management system.
Well if you do some history on the guy he got in a lot of trouble in Britain by killing someone with his injection and left the patient for 35 minutes before he called the police. He did surgery on people with no malpractice insurance which is against the law in most state and where it is not it has to be clearly noted in the doctors office. ( In case I would leave) Basically he lost the lawsuits and not want to blame everyone else for his mistakes. Well as a chronic pain patient I dont see this guy any better then anyone else. Meanwhile who is going to give him a trillion dollars. This is done only for press for his cause and the article does not tell the whole truth. Unfortunately it seem like some reporters do not so background information but just quote people no matter how deranged they are. I. Fact this guy medical license was pulled in the UK. It should be pulled hear.
You don’t listen, do you?…
See my lengthy comment below if Mr. Eisner allows it to be posted.
Dear Mr. Walter Eisner
Whether you and others believe it or not there is mass conspiracy ongoing to destroy healthcare licensees via illegal trade associations called State Medical Boards, the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), hospitals controlled by these same entities, State Bars, Government officials and Big Pharma.
I have a document from the FSMB directly advocating for the destruction and removal of Integrative Medicine doctors from the medical profession because they are economically hurting allopathic doctors. I’m happy to email you a copy.
I have a Louisiana Senate Bill, put together by Senator John Milkovich, that attempted to get Due Process Rights for physicians. Mr. Milkovich is a lawyer by trade. The LA Senate passed it, but not the Representatives of the State. Accused rapists, murderers, thieves, pedophiles etc. get Due Process Rights but not physicians? What the hell is going on with that? Can you explain that sir? I have a copy of the 2018/2019 SB if you are interested in investigating further.
The public and individuals such as yourself have no idea what is occurring. Most physicians don’t understand until they are personally affected. It is nothing short of a Kafkaesque totalitarian dystopic nightmare. Prior to the sham hearings physicians are given no Due Process rights, no Discovery, withholding of records, intimidation of witnesses along with many more illegal behaviors. Medical Boards attempt to force physicians into signing all their rights away via a Stipulated Order (SO) which is nothing more than “a gun” called license revocation put to your head. Most of the time the physician isn’t even allowed to have a lawyer present or speak on their clients behalf.
If the medical board dislikes you for any reason such as:
• a competitor to their favored friends and associates,
• Integrative Medicine physician,
• physician who stands up for their Due Process and Constitutional Rights,
• physician who refuses to submit to the medical board lies and sign a SO,
• a physician who attempts to “educate” the board or tell them they don’t know what they are talking about,
that physician will end up in a hearing – if they can still afford one because typically the first thing the Medical Board does is they shut down financially the physicians they are attacking.
Medical Board hearings have predetermined outcomes. The Oregon Medical Board (OMB) has never lost a hearing and never will because they control the entire sham from the start of the investigation until license revocation. The victim physician hopes justice will be served at their hearing, but they quickly realize that there will be no justice. The OMB, along with legal counselor and prosecutor AAG Warren Foote, run these sham hearings where blatant perjury, hearsay, ex parte contact and much more occurs. You have no Constitutional or Due Process rights at these hearings. And to demonstrate how utterly dystopic this entire process is the OMB is able to overturn any Proposed Order written by the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) overseeing the hearing. All board members to date have been given absolute immunity by State and Federal Courts for blatant criminal acts.
Mr. Eisner, if you want to really go down the rabbit hole you need to speak to me. First look into the HCQIA of 1986. That’s when the problems really started. It’s author, Senator Ron Wyden from Oregon, refuses to discuss the horrific effect this has had on physicians. He will be hearing from me at his next Town Hall meeting because he and his staff refuse to discuss this issue in his office for 10 years now. I have a copy of HCQIA of 1986 if you’d like me to email it to you.
Now comes along the North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners 2015 SCOTUS decision which outlines the rules and structure these boards are to operate under to receive “Parker immunity”. These boards have been warned by a number of legal authorities to follow these Midcal rules, but State government thumbs their nose at the SCOTUS. As a result, the state governments have left the board members out to hang. These rubberstamping board members, many who are quite psychopathic and dysfunctional themselves, are nothing more than part of a private trade association and therefore can be sued in their person and State DOJs have no right or ability to defend them. The FSMB is part in parcel of this conspiracy where they too profit from these sham hearings just as the boards, State DOJ and ALJ’s do – they all have a pecuniary interest in the outcome of these hearings.
Of note, anyone doing spinal surgery has lawsuits – it comes with the territory. If I was given the opportunity to review these neurosurgeon’s charts attacking Dr. Kaul regarding their patient and surgical care I could find numerous instances of poor and deadly care. Same goes for the State Medical Board and FSMB members. I know for a fact this is true regarding the OMB physicians and have numerous documents to validate my statement.
Boards are protecting extremely bad docs who are their friends, partners associates…..it’s very bad here in OR – criminal bad. I’m talking sexual predators, drug users, faux experts utilized by the OMB, use of a gun to threaten Residents, docs with high morbidity and mortality outcomes who are seemingly lost regarding patient evaluation and treatment, etc. Again, I have numerous examples including the current Board Chair of the OMB Dr. Dean Gubler who the hospital he was associated with refused to hire him as a hospital employee though the rest of his group were offered contracts. Reason for this is that Dr. Gubler is highly volatile, but more importantly he is known by staff, Residents and even medical students as a horrible doc. Why isn’t he being investigated? That question will be asked at the January 2020 public OMB meeting.
I could go on. I have already written much on this subject including a chapter published January 2017. Unfortunately, as long as the ignorant listen to the one sided story put out by these private trade association medical boards they won’t understand. Medical Boards are removing whistleblowers, innovators and some of the best docs I have had the pleasure to meet and/or speak too. I can give you a number of stories from across the US that validate that statement. AS long as nothing is done physician suicides will continue, excellent physicians will be discarded as they and their families are destroyed and patients will suffer. The medical boards hide behind a shield of protecting public safety. This is easily disproven hogwash.
Here is a website I put together drdovervsomb.weebly.com for more info. Medical Boards may operate slightly differently from state to state, but the outcome is the same. If you’d like to learn more please contact me through my phone number and/or email listed on my website. I have a ton of documents I can forward to you. Docs have had enough and through individuals such as me organizing others and lawsuits like Dr. Kaul’s things will change. There will soon be a tidal wave of legal court challenges to these boards and once the public learns of how boards are not protecting their safety, and are in fact endangering them, they will join in also.
The ball is in your hands Mr. Eisner. Let’s see what you do with it. Don’t just walk off the field with it.
Respectfully
Eric Dover, MD
