South Dakota News: Court Decision
Published in the April 2006 South Dakota State Board of Pharmacy Newsletter
On May 27, 2005, the state of South Dakota’s Attorney General’s Office, by and through the State Board of Pharmacy, filed a Summons and Complaint against defendant Canada Services, formerly known as Canada Drug of South Dakota.
The Board argued that Canada Services had violated the following statutes: South Dakota Codified Law 36-11-15 by keeping a store for retailing medicines by a person other than a registered pharmacist and in that the defendant alone or as an agent for MediMart of Winnipeg, Manitoba, and persons who are not registered pharmacists and who were dispensing drugs and medicines in violation of SDCL 36-11-19.2, 19.3, and 19.8.
The Board sought injunctive relief in accordance with SDCL 36-11-65. On January 18, 2006, Judge William J. Srstka, Jr, granted the Board of Pharmacy’s request for injunctive relief pursuant to SDCL 36-11-65. Since then Canada Services has moved to Minnesota.
