Richardson v. Simpson
Richardson v. Simpson
Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the court was delivered by
The state board of dental examiners revoked the license of W. S. Richardson to practice dentistry. He obtained an injunction restraining the board from enforcing its order. On appeal to this court the injunction was set aside. (Richardson v. Simpson, 88 Kan. 684, 129 Pac. 1128.) The trial court found that the dentistry board, in hearing and deciding the case, “acted honestly and impartially, and not arbitrarily, but . . . that its act was oppressive.” (p. 686.) From the entire record this court was of the opinion that the trial court had used the term “oppressive” in the sense of unduly severe. It has been brought to our attention in a petition for a rehearing that in the course of further proceedings it was stated by the judge of the district court that this court had misconceived his meaning in this regard. In view of this we withdraw so much of the original opinion as undertook to place an interpretation on the word “oppressive” as used in the findings. The decision of the case, however, is adhered to. In our judgment the
The petition for rehearing is denied..
