You can't go after laws like this on a general basis. You have to have a specific case. TROs are only for immediate (i.e. emergency) situations, not general (theoretical) concerns. So, if you don't have a specific case with specific damages immediately to occur, a TRO should really NOT be granted. Joe P.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
