The Netherlands is the first country in the world where euthanasia is legal. Some twenty years ago, people in the Netherlands, well-intentioned physicians among them, began a process that has made physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia common practice there today. In the Netherlands, in April 2001, a law was passed that allows physicians to perform euthanasia but only when the patient has expressed explicitly the desire to die in order to prevent or end unacceptable suffer. Additionally, the physician must also agree with the patient that he suffers unacceptably and can only co-operate when he or she has consulted two colleagues who agree that euthanasia is acceptable in the given case and under the given circumstances. Given all these conditions, the physician needs the substances with which he can help the patient.

V. What is characteristic of American legal system? The American legal system, like the English, is methodologically mainly a case law system. Case Law: law based on decisions made by judges in earlier cases.
Solicitors have direct contact with their clients. In most cases, barristers do not. In almost all cases, a client who needs the services of a barrister must go first to a solicitor, who will then instruct, or brief the barrister.
Many solicitors deal with a range of legal work, such as: litigation, commercial, conveyancing, employment, family, immigration, licensing, probate, etc.

Christopher Columbus Langdell (1826-1906)
York City from 1854 to 1870; in 1875 he became dean of Harvard law school. Langdell is especially famed for the introduction of the “case method” in the study of law. In his view the principles of law are best learned by inductive study of the actual legal situations (the cases) in which they occur. Langdell's theory was first adopted at Harvard, then at Columbia law school, and in time gained almost universal acceptance.
