SWINTON J. (ORALLY)
[1] The motion to admit fresh evidence is dismissed.
[2] The matter before us today is an appeal from a costs order of the Discipline Committee. The appellant seeks to mount a collateral attack on the Discipline Committee’s decision on the merits. An appeal from this decision was dismissed by the Divisional Court, and leave to appeal was denied by the Court of Appeal. It is an abuse of process for Dr. Venneri to now try to attack the decision on the merits in this costs appeal.
[3] In any event, the evidence does not meet the test for the admission of fresh evidence. We are not satisfied, having read the decision of the Discipline Committee, that the proposed evidence could reasonably be expected to have affected the result, when taken with the other evidence adduced. Nothing in this material suggests that Dr. Evans now considers HBOT to be necessary and effective for the patient S.H.
