Naum v. United States

Issue: Whether the elements of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(l) as defined in United States v. Moore, requiring the government to prove unlawful distribution of a controlled substance "outside the usual course of professional practice" and "for other than a legitimate medical purpose" can be applied in the disjunctive, permitting the government to prove only that a prescription was prescribed "outside the usual course of professional practice" or "outside the bounds of professional practice" solely for violation of a professional standard without regard to the medical legitimacy of the medication.
