State Medical Society v. Board of Examiners in Podiatry

In State Medical Society v. Board of Examiners in Podiatry, 203 Conn. 295, 301, 524 A.2d 636 (1987) the Court held that a licensed physician had standing to contest the validity of an administrative action that enlarged the area of the body that fell within the practice of podiatry. State Medical Society v. Board of Examiners in Podiatry, supra, 203 Conn. 304. Such enlargement, the court held, could constitute unfair and illegal competition because it could constitute an illegal encroachment on the professional practice of the physician. Id., 304-305.
