Follow Up on Nevada Pharmacy Case

Here is a more recent article regarding Sanchez v. Wal Mart Stores et al. I posted an article from the Wall Street Journal earlier.

I was interviewed by USA Lawyer's Weekly regarding this case recently and I will post the article when it is online.

My thoughts on the defense are different. Rather than saying that this would be a burden on pharmacists and that not all pharmacies have Internet access, the focus should be on the woman. If the state had time to put her on a list of people suspected of doctor shopping, why couldn't the state bring charges against her? Target the offender, not the pharmacists.
