<strong>POLI</strong> <strong>330</strong> <strong>Political</strong> <strong>Science</strong> <strong>Week</strong> 5 <strong>TCO</strong> <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>Answers</strong> (<strong>2017</strong>)<br />
1. (<strong>TCO</strong> 4) What are your initial, nonlegal, thoughts on this case? How would you decide it based on your<br />
own belief structures? For example, if you were the judge in this case, would you would allow Mr. Trident to<br />
leave the hospital, thus bringing about his death? Or would you feel for Mr. Trident but side with the hospital<br />
because he clearly is not in the right mind to make such decisions for himself? Or would you perhaps side with<br />
the hospital because people should not be allowed to refuse medical treatment or go to the extreme of ordering<br />
the hospital to aid in the shortening of his life so that he did not have to suffer a painful death? What would you<br />
do? Please put some thought into your answer and provide at least 4–5 sentences as you explain it.<br />

3. (<strong>TCO</strong> 4) In a true legal argument, should legal reasoning or moral reasoning be used?<br />

5. (<strong>TCO</strong> 4) Cruzan v. Director, Missouri Department of Health is a case studied in the right-to-die debate.<br />
What precedent did it help to establish?<br />
6. (<strong>TCO</strong> 4) How does the Cruzan case factor into Mr. Trident’s argument?<br />
7. (<strong>TCO</strong> 4) Given the precedent established in the Cruzan case, how would you now have to decide the<br />
case if you were the judge?<br />
