Abstract:
This essay distinguishes between several end-of-life actions, focusing on euthanasia. The study accomplishes four objectives. First, it identifies factors defining euthanasia. Second, it analyzes the latter topic from the perspective of patient rights, state interests, and standards of evidence. Third, the article examines a series of state court rulings and how these decisions have influenced legal and constitutional thought. Finally, the study recommends integrating the judicial approach utilized here with ethical and public policy perspectives.
