SUMMARY
A medical-journal reprint of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals opinion in the federal government's Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act enforcement action against the Hoxsey Cancer Clinic. Bibliographic metadata (title, journal, year, volume, issue, page, PMID) fetched and confirmed directly from PubMed. The full opinion text (hosted on law.justia.com and casetext.com) returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch from this runner and is NOT independently verified for verbatim quotation; the finding that the government's evidence established that specific representations about named individuals in Hoxsey's promotional booklet were false is used only as a paraphrase, cross-confirmed by two independent Perplexity search calls that reproduced consistent text from the same law.justia.com case page, not treated as a verified verbatim quote.
