California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Med. Bd. of California v. Superior Court of Sacramento Cnty., C064592 (Cal. App. 2012):
The language in section 822 regarding mentally ill licentiates is very different from the statutory language analyzed in Griffiths v. Superior Court (2002) 96 Cal.App.4th 757. That case involved section 2239, which expressly provides that an alcohol-related conviction is conclusive evidence of unprofessional conduct that may be the subject of discipline. No such equivalent language is found in section 822 regarding mentally ill licentiates.
