Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts Rejects Fundamental Right to Assisted Suicide

Here is a link to an article in the National Right to Life News about this important decision. This decision follows the trend (which is of course not universal) of state  supreme courts (even quite liberal such courts) rejecting the argument that there is a fundamental constitutional right to assisted suicide under the state constitution.

Separate opinions in the case (which is called Kligler v. Healy) were more receptive to the argument that there is a narrow right to assisted suicide.
