Ashraf v General Dental Council: Admn 29 Jul 2014

The dentist appealed against an order for his erasure from the register, after findings as to misconduct in the filing of claims to the NHS, despite his acquittal by a criminal court.
Held: The appeal failed. Whilst it would not be usually fair to proceed with disciplinary charges brought on similar facts, it not need always be unfair to proceed.
