I got word today that Narconon of Georgia's appeal hearing is probably going to happen in June or July of this year.  This probably means that they are going to be operating their business until then, at least. 

Keep digging everyone. The end is near...(+):-)

Bummer! That's four or five months too long for them to keep messing with people's lives.

It's a slow-moving machine in the halls of State Government. Truthfully, NNGA has had about a decade longer than they should have, but who's counting?

Inefficient, it is.  The way it works is this:  DCH's inspectors inspect, then DCH's deciders decide, and then facilities file for administrative appeals.  This where this matter stands. 

Because DCH-HFR (Healthcare Facilities Regulation) appear to process each appeal (to include scheduling the hearing on the same) in the order in which it was received, and NNGA did the same thing that all or most other healthcare facilities being given any type of negative decision do, the unfortunate result is gridlocked delay. 

Although there should definitely be an malevolently evil anti-social cult / go to the front of the line exception, sadly, there is apparently no such exception. 

Commissioner Cook - given the Inspector General's report and the blatantly obvious on-going threat to life presented the NNGA being allowed to continue on with its unfettered cult business as usual - could presumably pick up the telephone and do something about this disgrace of a travesty, but apparently hasn't be bothered to do so.

By the way, when it eventually does happen, the hearing of NNGA's appeal will take place in a courtroom on the 8th floor of the 230 Peachtree Street office building in downtown Atlanta, which is the offices of the Georgia Office of State Administrative Hearings (OSAH), and it will be fully open to the public and the press.

Good catch, ethercat!! Any reason why it's only in the New Life name and not Narconon of Georgia, too?

My guess would be that the last inspection cited the sauna with deficiencies, but it could be too that they didn't want to type it all out and/or viewed the two as one (which they are).
