Dr Malgozata Stadnik-Borowiec v Southern Health and Social Care Trust, Health and Social Care Board and Others [2014]

The appeal to the Court of Appeal relates to Orders by two separate Chairmen to impose deposit orders against the Appellant in the Tribunal to allow her to continue with her claims.

The Appellant was recruited as a GP by the Trust and latterly the HSSCB. A complaint was received by the Trust from the family of a patient about the alleged failure of the Appellant to attend a patient properly and subsequently the Trust Emergency Department consultant advised that she had administered a dose of medication to another patient which amounted to an overdose that would have been fatal if there had been a respiratory arrest.  These incidents were set against a background of previous incidents
