These allegations include making comments of a sexual or personal nature, performing an exam in a sexualized manner and unnecessarily performing an internal exam.
Starting at 9:30 a.m., media, legal counsel and people like family members of parties involved can attend the disciplinary hearing. A publication ban remains on the names of the complainants and any identifying information about them.
People attending the hearing will be asked to sign-in and abide by the publication ban, which includes no live broadcasting, no Twitter updates and no photos or video recording during the hearing.
