CONTEMPORARY LEGAL ISSUES: THE TERRI SCHIAVO CASE
After 15 years, in a persistent vegetative state, the controversies sorrowing the death of Terri Schiavo before her death, remain controverted today, in what has been described as the longest and most litigated right to die case in U.S. history. Notwithstanding the dispute between her parents and husband, and courts and Congress, the law and theology, according to a recent poll, 80% of Americans believe Terri Schiavo had a right to die, and that she should have been allowed to die with dignity. A distinguished panel of experts will help you understand the compelling issues which arose in this case. Guests are the Most Reverend, Salvatore Cordileone, Auxiliary Bishop of San Diego, Steven Smith, Dean, California Western School of Law, and Richard Sheridan, Senior Vice President, and General Counsel, for Scripps Health.
