Dr. Conrad Murray, the doctor currently facing criminal charges over the death of pop great Michael Jackson, has once again been targeted by California’s medical board, who’ve asked a judge to suspend his license so he can not practice in the state.

With the Los Angeles County Coroner declaring the “Thriller” star’s death a homicide back in August 2009, Dr. Conrad Murray is in the hot seat over his administration of legal prescription drugs and anaesthetics. Jackson died from cardiac arrest following an overdose of Propofol, along with two anti-anxiety drugs, Lorazepam and Midazolam
Earlier this week, California’s state attorney general’s office filed legal papers, telling the court that the current limitations on Murray’s work practises weren’t sufficient. “While the defendant asserts that he will not practice in California, there is no legal bar to him changing his mind and engaging in practice in this state,” the legal suit states. “It is not just his ‘prescribing’ practices that are in question, but his fundamental judgment and skill as a physician.”

Due in court next week, Murray’s lawyer, Ed Chernoff, said he’ll be filing a response to the new suit in a few days. Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter.
