Tom Kark QC represented the nurse, Ms Doherty, in her appeal against the decision of the County Court to uphold a refusal to register her. The principal issue in the appeal was: what the proper test was to be applied when considering whether an application for re-registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council should be granted.
Counsel was instructed by Lisa Catterall of the Royal College of Nursing.
The case is reported at: Doherty v NMC Court of Appeal [2017] EWCA Civ 1344
