Doe v. Maine Board of Osteopathic Licensure
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the judgment of the superior court dismissing the three-count complaint filed by John Doe, DO, against the Maine Board of Osteopathic Licensure, holding that Doe failed to state a claim upon which relief may be granted as to any of his claims.
Two of Doe's complaints sought a declaration that pending disciplinary complaints against him must be dismissed because the Board did not provide him the required notice, and the third count claimed that the Board failed to address the complaints in a timely manner. The superior court dismissed the first two counts for failure to state a claim and the third count for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The Supreme Judicial Court affirmed, holding that dismissal of all three counts was proper on the grounds that Doe failed to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.
