Conrad Murray Keeps Medical License In Nevada

The man accused in the death of Michael Jackson has received some good news. TMZ.com is citing sources at the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners who say Doctor Conrad Murray has been allowed to keep his medical license in Nevada. Murray's license in California was recently suspended as a condition of his bail in his ongoing manslaughter case involving the late pop star. Murray also has a medical practice in Texas, although the Texas Medical Board has yet to make a ruling on his license there.

Murray was Jackson's doctor when the singer died on June 25, 2009 from cardiac arrest. Jackson was later found to have lethal levels of the drug propofol in his system, which Murray has admitted to supplying. Murray's trial for an involuntary manslaughter charge will begin on March 24th.
