How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- statutory provisions regarding patient confidentiality did not share the same purpose as provisions concerning the confidentiality of Chiropractic Board investigations and so could not be read in pari materia
- “Because these statutes are not in pari materia, do not share a common purpose, and are not intended to be construed together, it follows that one provision could not be considered as controlling over the other or as creating an exception to it.”
