Key legal question
Whether the physiotherapy licence withdrawal under cantonal health law was lawful
Extracted holding
No. The one-time misconduct and minor criminal sanction did not justify concluding that the appellant had lost the required trustworthiness or public trust.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that trustworthiness must be assessed in context, but it cannot be denied lightly. The appellant had an otherwise spotless career, reported the matter himself, cooperated, and apologized. The offence was an isolated lapse and did not justify the most severe measure.
