KS Board of Healing Arts revokes abortion doctor's license and demands $93K bond when she files suit

This is disgusting. Dr. Neuhaus never broke any laws. She was the second opinion for Dr. George Tiller, who provided abortions. And because she worked with Dr. Tiller, (who was murdered), the state took her license to practice medicine away. So she sued to get her license back and now the state wants her to post a bond of $93,000 to cover the state's costs in defending her lawsuit.

TOPEKA — A northeast Kansas doctor who lost her license over referrals to the late George Tiller’s abortion clinic is fighting state regulators’ efforts to force her to post a bond of nearly $93,000 as she appeals to the courts.

Attorney Kelly Kauffman said Thursday that physician Kristin Neuhaus can’t afford to pursue a lawsuit against the State Board of Healing Arts if she is required to post the bond, which would cover costs incurred by the board as its staff pursued sanctions against her. Neuhaus filed her lawsuit in August in Shawnee County District Court in hopes of regaining her license.

“It basically closes the courts to her,” Kauffman said. “They have to know that.”

The board filed a request earlier this month for District Judge Franklin Theis to order Neuhaus to post a bond for $92,672 while the doctor pursues her lawsuit. Neuhaus’ attorneys filed their objection last week, saying an “impossible” bond would deprive Neuhaus of her constitutional rights to due legal process.

Her husband's blog:

NO MONEY, NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!

A motion was filed last week in Shawnee District Court, Topeka, Ks. by the Kansas Board of Healing Arts (KSBHA) demanding a “bond” of $93,000 be posted on our family property before that court can proceed in hearings with my sweetheart’s attempt to regain her medical license.

The silence is deafening, millions of hoodwinked Kansans, blinded by their racism, homophobia or their own selfishness; in spite all, the echo as an artillery barrage of the feminist ferment keeps pounding. The numerous "official" hands of the intolerant Theocracy governing this 34th member of the federal union considers us more dangerous than all these cowering herds of silent ass raped citizens.

Abortion is the law of the United States of America, no matter what the fanatical Christian radicals in the Kansas government would have it's lobotomized citizens believe.

Political and terrorist opportunists of all kinds have battered my lover and comrade-in-arms.

They have sought at times to kill her, defame her professional reputation, integrity and ability; for decades, but never have I witnessed such a vile organization of religious and political stooges now operating as the Kansas Board of Healing Arts. Their demand for $93,000 before we seek justice in a federal courtroom betray the democratic premise of “Equal Justice Under Law.”

4 of the 9 practicing medical doctors on KSBHA recused themselves from judgment on her. This was not reported in any Kansas news media. The world's foremost expert and editor-in-chief of the diagnostic manual of psychiatry, Dr. Michael First, wrote in support of her use of the computer software to document information about these patients. This was also never reported in the Kansas news media, or admitted as evidence in her defense.

Of the 9 - 10,000 women who received medical and surgical 1st and early 2nd trimester abortions, none have filed suit against her care. The complainant who filed the original paper with KSBHA is a convicted felon, part of a well-financed organisation successfully seeking to gain credibility in Kansas.

A solid majority of the members of KSBHA are either new political appointees by the current governor, or re-appointed, of those three are directly involved in, or financially derive support from the "pro-life" movement in Kansas.

The whole sordid decade-long persecution of her and my family are chronicled in the now public court records available at the "Welcome to Brownbackistan" wordpress site. Google, you know how to Google.

If the State of Kansas attempts to take our tiny 10 acre farm (15 years paid on the mortgage) we are calling on all free-thinking Free State people to stop the sale. It is all we have.

My name is Michael Caddell, sweetheart to Dr. Kris for over 25 years and I approve this message.
