Summary

The New Jersey Supreme Court held that the State Board of Medical Examiners acted within its statutory authority to revoke Dr. Kenneth Zahl’s medical license for a pattern of dishonest and fraudulent conduct, even though no patient harm was shown. The Court reversed the Appellate Division’s decision and remanded for the Board to enforce revocation, emphasizing deference to the Board’s discretion and the lack of a requirement that patient injury precede revocation.
