Question: because it was made by physicians and nursing home administrators who are private parties. The Supreme Court explained its rationale: "Those decisions ultimately turn on medical judgments made by private parties according to professional standards that are not established by the State." Id. at 1008, 102 S.Ct. 2777. The Court distinguished situations where the state "affirmatively command[ed]" the discharge or transfer of Medicaid patients, id. at 1005, 102 S.Ct. 2777, or where medical judgments were made by utilization review committees mandated by federal regulation. See id. at 1008, 102 S.Ct. 2777. A key inquiry under Blum and its progeny is which entity made the decision being challenged. See id. at 1005, 102 S.Ct. 2777; see also Kraemer v. Heckler, 737 F.2d 214, 220 (2d Cir.1984) (<HOLDING>); Catanzano v. Dowling, 60 F.3d 113, 117 (2d

(DE 50, pg. 33-34). This Court therefore RECOMMENDS that the District Court GRANT the Mo tion to Compel Arbitration as to Defendants Richardson and LBEG. See Provident Bank, 141 F.Supp.2d at 313-314 (granting motion to compel arbitration of claims including fraud, breach of fiduciary-duty, negligence, and rescission where arbitration clause provided that all disputes 'arising out of the agreement were to be settled by arbitration, and because all the claims arose out of alleged breaches of duty imposed by the parties' loan agreement); Sease, 697 F.Supp. at 1192-1193 (<HOLDING>) (citing Shearson Hayden Stone, Inc., 671 F.2d

Question: plea agreement between myself and the prosecutor." The State argues this provision controls over the following handwritten notation on the plea form: "Defendant reserves his right to appeal the adverse ruling on defendant's pretrial motion to suppress evidence." The State contends the handwritten notation, just above the preprinted waiver, was a pre-plea attempt to reserve his appeal rights, which did not survive the trial court's acceptance of the plea bargain. There is no reporter's record of the plea hearing, and the State does not explain why the following notation on the judgment was lined out: "Appeal waived, No permission for appeal granted." On this record, we conclude appellant did not waive his right to appeal. See Alzarka v. State, 90 S.W.3d 321, 324 (Tex.Crim.App.2002) (<HOLDING>). Cf. Freeman v. State, 913 S.W.2d 714, 716-17
