- Abstract
This article is based on a suppositional case, the core of the article is discussed about the euthanasia. The discussion from both of legal side and ethical side and draw a conclusion that under the background of the case, euthanasia is acceptable. But we must pay attation to that this case occurred in state Montana, in which the Supreme Court of Montana hold that under Mont.Code.Ann.§45-2-211, a terminally ill patient's consent to physician aid in dying can constitute a statutory defense to a charge of homicide against the aiding physician.
