The appellant massage therapist appealed a penalty decision of the Discipline Committee imposing an eight-month suspension for professional misconduct.
The appellant argued the penalty was unreasonable because the Tribunal erroneously found he admitted to touching the complainant's sensitive areas.
The Divisional Court agreed, finding the admissions were not clear and unambiguous regarding sensitive areas.
The appeal was allowed, and the penalty was reduced to the four-week suspension already served.
