The authors dicuss legal, medical and ethical aspects and conflicts in decision making arising from a March 2003 Court Decision of the Bundegerichtshof (BGH) on "passive" and "indirect" euthanasia (Sterbehilfe). They analyze legal, cultural and social implications of this high court decision for the development of German jurisprudence and public discourse.
