Description

Dr. Aldemir Coehlo, M.D. ("Dr. Coehlo") filed an employment discrimination charge against St. Luke's Medical Center ("St. Luke's") after St. Luke's suspended his medical staff privileges because he refused to submit his surgical cases to a medical staff peer review committee. Dr. Coehlo, a native of Brazil, alleged that St. Luke's suspended him because of his national origin, in violation of the Arizona Civil Rights Act ("ACRA"). When the Arizona Civil Rights Division ("Division") subpoenaed St. Luke's medical staff peer review materials, St. Luke's refused to comply. Instead, St. Luke's filed a complaint for declaratory relief, asserting that the Division had no jurisdiction to conduct an investigation because St. Luke's and Dr. Coehlo did not have an employment relationship. The trial court granted summary judgment against St. Luke's on this issue.
