Nazir Khan v. Presence Chicago Hospitals Network, et al.

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, No. 21-2159 · judgment January 5, 2022


Certiorari denied · January 17, 2023
Pre-decision estimate: 0% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.

Questions presented

  1. Whether the hospital can terminate the privileges of a physician who is physically and mentally normal on the basis that he did not cooperate with the cognitive disability testing. Such testing is illegal, unethical, violative of statutory provision. Termination was based upon fraud with misrepresentation of facts.

  2. Defendants had no federal claims, lacked subject matter jurisdiction. District court should have dismissed their motions as void. 7th circuit appeals court must declare judgment void because appellate court may not address merits of District court, and appeals court took no actions, on the other hand
