The Legendary MUA Case in Stockton, California
Over 200 chiropractors were on the brink of mass arrests for performing Manipulations Under Anesthesia (MUA) in California. The pivotal Stockton MUA case, the first of its kind in the state, was a turning point. If Daniel Horowitz had lost, prosecutors were ready to launch widespread arrests.
Daniel Horowitz faced off against eleven expert witnesses from the Chiropractic Board and insurance carriers, thoroughly and systematically dismantling their arguments. The prosecution was exposed for withholding evidence and manipulating witnesses. In a scene reminiscent of a movie, jurors began offering candy to Horowitz’s chiropractor client from their communal “keep jurors awake” bowl halfway through the three-month trial.
The victory in the MUA case halted the arrests, and months later, the board issued regulations making MUAs a safe and accepted treatment. If you performed MUAs between 2003-2005, you weren’t arrested because Horowitz and Yates won the Origel MUA case.

$ 2 Million Dollars Collected from the Board of Chiropractic Examiners
Several years later, Daniel Horowitz sued the chiropractic board on behalf of whistleblower Carol Arbuckle. She revealed that the board had provided special treatment to a chiropractic board member whose license had lapsed and who had billed under someone else’s license. The chiropractic board fired Carol Arbuckle who sued for wrongful termination. The case went to trial and she ultimately recovered $2 million dollars.

He told me that he hadn't lost a trial in a long time and he didn't want mine to break the streak. I didn't either! We went to trial and he was in control of the courtroom. He was totally prepared. But I was still worried because the prosecutor was very good as well. Daniel was confident but honest. The jury really liked him. As you can tell, he won my case because I am here, writing this review. Thank you.Michael M.
