One of the doctors who pleaded guilty to supplying Matthew Perry ketamine reportedly filed an appeal requesting the court to resentence him as a drug dealer, rather than a physician.<\/p>\n

Dr. Salvador Plasenia recently filed documents in court alleging the judge wrongly punished him for being a physician who violated his position of trust, according to TMZ. He reportedly requested that the Ninth Circuit dismiss his 30-month prison term.<\/p>\n

Plasencia, who previously pleaded guilty to four ketamine-distribution counts, claimed the \u201cFriends\u201d actor didn\u2019t approach him for legitimate medical care but rather as a source for access to ketamine, according to the court documents. His attorneys argued that the judge should have sentenced him as a common drug dealer rather than as a doctor who broke his patient\u2019s trust.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors alleged Plasencia provided Perry with ketamine in the weeks leading up to star\u2019s death. He didn\u2019t dispute the claims, but reportedly argued that he felt it was unfair that he received a harsher punishment than others tied to ketamine distribution in the case, namely defendants Mark Chavez and Erik Fleming, according to the court documents.<\/p>\n

Plasencia also challenged other aspects of his sentence, according to TMZ. His attorneys claimed he faced inappropriate double-counting related to allegations that he altered records during the investigation into Perry\u2019s death, the court documents read.<\/p>\n
