Supreme Court dismisses medical disciplinary ruling for limiting evidence when defendant denied guilt.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the Supreme Medical Chamber's disciplinary ruling against Dr. Zygmunt D. regarding the death of a patient. The Chamber had convicted the doctor for negligence but limited the evidentiary hearing to the defendant's statements and the victim's mother's testimony, excluding autopsy and examination reports. The Court held that because the defendant denied guilt, the Chamber violated procedural rules by failing to examine all relevant evidence required by the Criminal Procedure Code.
