Misconduct in another jurisdiction may be a basis for disciplinary action in New York State

Bueno v. Ambach, 82 A.D.2d 935, Appeal Dismissed, 54 N.Y.2d 1024

The Appellate Division concluded that the Commissioner of Education properly revoked a physician’s license to practice medicine in New York State on the basis of his record in other jurisdictions.

Holding that “it is clear that misconduct in other jurisdictions can be the basis for a disciplinary action in New York...and also that the transcripts of the hearings were properly...in evidence,” the Appellate Division  dismissed Bueno’s appeal.
