In re Quinlan (70 N.J. 10, 355 A.2d 647 (NJ 1976)) was a landmark〔http://www.libraryindex.com/pages/582/Court-End-Life-RIGHT-PRIVACY-KAREN-ANN-QUINLAN.html〕 1975 court case in the United States in which the parents of a woman who was kept alive by artificial means were allowed to order her removal from artificial ventilation.〔http://law.jrank.org/pages/3250/In-Matter-Karen-Ann-Quinlan-1975.html〕〔http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FSL/is_n4_v67/ai_20972811/〕 ==Karen Ann Quinlan== (詳細はtranquilizers, Quinlan passed out and ceased breathing for two 15-minute periods. After it was determined that she was in a persistent vegetative state, her father wished to remove her from the medical ventilator. Quinlan's primary physician and the hospital both refused. Quinlan's father filed suit in the New Jersey Superior Court in Morris County, New Jersey, on September 12, 1975, 〔"Couple Files Suit To End Life", ''Deseret News'' (Salt Lake City), September 13, 1975, p1〕 to be appointed as Quinlan's legal guardian so that he could act on her behalf; but the Court denied his request on November 10, 1975. 〔"Must Choose Life, Judge Says in Quinlan Decision", ''Milwaukee Journal'', November 11, 1975, p8〕 Mr. Quinlan appealed the decision to the Supreme Court of New Jersey, which on March 31, 1976, held that he could authorize the cessation of ventilation; and the hospital was bound to proceed with this order. After being removed from the ventilator, Quinlan continued to breathe until her death, in 1986, from pneumonia. The autopsy of Quinlan's brain found extensive damage to the bilateral thalamus.〔http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/full/330/21/1469〕
