    Hi guys, just a quick question regarding the case of Re Ward of Court [1995] ILRM 401. Can anyone that's familiar with the case tell me exactly what the central legal issue was? Slightly confused here.

    Thanks in advance.

    Not surprised as that's the citation for one of the Bula mines cases.

    I assume you mean Re Ward of Court (withholding medical treatment) (No 2) [1996] 2 IR 79?

    Central theme is in relation to right to life. Oran Doyle's book is the best for a quick cram session. Any other questions feel free to ask.

    Not a problem - ponderous case given she had some function. Judgement is criticised (at least in form) by Doyle for being a naturalistic fallacy. There is a collateral issue in the Denham J judgement about privacy.
