In Florida, voters in 2004 passed a law that is supposed to prevent dangerous doctors from practicing medicine. It's known as the three strikes malpractice law and requires that doctors with three findings of malpractice lose their license. But then the Florida legislature in 2005 got involved and made it nearly impossible for the board of medicine to levy a strike, the Palm Beach Post reports. The law says a strike happens after a judgment of malpractice by the court in a lawsuit or a finding by the board of medicine or an arbitrator. But even after those things happen, the medical board has to go on to use a strict standard to decide whether it's a strike.
