NEW BUSINESS Nothing scheduled OLD BUSINESS 1. Benjamin Levine, M.D. 25MA02389700 By way of background, on March 14, 2007 Dr. Levine’s medical license was suspended under the terms of a Final Order because Dr. Levine practiced medicine for years without a license and the required malpractice insurance. Additionally, Dr. Levine failed to reveal on his malpractice insurance application that he was the subject of two criminal indictments, even though the application requested the disclosure of any pending criminal charges. Dr. Levine appealed the Board’s decision, but on March 7, 2008 the Appellate Division affirmed the Board’s Final Order. On February 22, 2008 Dr. Levine requested reinstatement of his medical licensee since he has not practiced medicine for over 2 years and requested the Board grant him credit for "time served". On March 10, 2008 the Attorney General opposed the request. OPEN DISCIPLINARY ***SUPPLEMENTAL AGENDA*** I/M/O/ DAVID WEISS D.O. This matter is at the Office of Administrative Law.

DAG Gelber has responded and requests that the Board uphold the Judge’s Order. Relevant materials are attached.
