Sam Brownback, a strong abortion opponent, in office for almost 18 months. Neuhaus can challenge the board's decision in court, and her attorneys expected her to appeal if the board rules against her.

Neuhaus, from Nortonville, a small town about 30 miles north of Lawrence, has an inactive medical license that allows her to provide limited charity care, but she had asked the board to reinstate her to a full, active license.

Abortion opponents have scrutinized Neuhaus for years and raised questions about her activities.

Tiller once faced misdemeanor criminal charges that alleged that by relying on Neuhaus for referrals, he wasn't getting the independent second medical opinion required by state law. He was acquitted two months before his murder, but at the time of his death, a separate complaint was pending before the Board of Healing Arts.
