Washington v. Glucksberg
text:
Washington v. Glucksberg, 521 U.S. 702 (1997), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, which unanimously held that a right to assisted suicide in the United States was not protected by the Due Process Clause. Some legal experts have argued that this case was incorrectly decided stating that it failed to recognize the issue of assisted death as a "fundamental aspect of the right to privacy" and therefore, the Court should have used strict scrutiny rather than rational basis review.
