The appellant veterinarian appealed the penalty and costs order of the Discipline Committee following a rehearing.
The Committee had ordered a one-month suspension and $65,000 in costs after the Divisional Court previously set aside some, but not all, findings of professional misconduct.
The appellant also brought several preliminary motions alleging prosecutorial misconduct, bias, and constitutional violations.
The Divisional Court dismissed the preliminary motions as being without merit or previously decided.
The Court also dismissed the appeal on penalty and costs, finding no error in principle and that the penalty was not clearly unfit.
Costs of the appeal were awarded to the respondent College in the amount of $15,000.
