  • Medical Jurisprudence Is a Branch of Medicine That Involves the Study and Application of Medical Knowledge in the Legal Field. B
    Medical jurisprudence is a branch of medicine that involves the study and application of medical knowledge in the legal field. Because modern medicine is a legal creation and medico- legal cases involvingdeath, rape, paternity etc. require a medical practitioner to produce evidence and appear as an expert witness, these two fields have traditionally been inter-dependent. Forensic medicine is a narrower field that involves collection and analysis of medical evidence (samples) to produce objective information for use in the legal system. Medical jurisprudence includes: 1. questions of the legal and ethical duties of physicians; 2. questions affecting the civil rights of individuals with respect to medicine; and 3. medicolegal assessment of injuries to the person. Under the second heading there are many aspects, including (but not limited to): (a) questions of competence or sanity in civil or criminal proceedings; (b) questions of competence of minors in matters affecting their own health; and (c) questions of lawful fitness or safety to drive a motor vehicle, pilot an aeroplane, use scuba gear, play certain sports, or to join certain occupations. Under the third heading, there are also many aspects, including (but not limited to): (a) assessment of illness or injuries that may be work-related (see workers' compensation or occupational safety and health) or otherwise compensable; (b) assessment of injuries of minors that may relate to neglect or abuse; and (c) certification of death or else the assessment of possible causes of death — this is the incorrect, narrow meaning of forensic medicine as commonly understood. MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE (HONOURS) is a course in medical law.

THE TIME OF DEATH-A LEGAL, ETHICAL AND MEDICAL DILEMMA Introduction On December 4, 1967 an amazed world learned that a South African physician, Dr. Christian Barnard, had transplanted the heart of one hopelessly injured patient into the body of another man who was dying of advanced cardiac disease.' This unprecedented operation brought the remarkable advances of medical technology over the pre- vious fifty years into sharp focus. The major medical obstacle to suc- cessful transplants had been the body's production of antibodies which reject the introduction of foreign substances into the system. 2 To fight this rejection process, medical scientists developed a substance known as antilymphocyteglobulin (ALG) .3 This substance performed excel- lently in preventing the rejection process. However, it created a new medical problem: ALG retards the production of lymphocytes which create the rejection process but lymphocytes are necessary to fight off infection in the body. This complication meant that doctors might be successful in preventing rejection of a transplanted vital organ only to 4 lose the patient to infection.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology by an authorized editor of Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. THE ROLE OF MEDICAL SCIENCE IN THE 1 ADMINISTRATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE 2 OscAR T. SCHULTZ Introduction Law and medicine come in contact with each other in an im- portant field in which information that scientific medicine is in posi- tion to furnish should be made available to and utilized by law in the administration of criminal justice. Some of this same body of medical information enters also into the administration of civil jus- tice. Malpractice and claims for accident insurance, personal in- jury, and workmen's compensation need only to be mentioned to emphasize the importance of medical opinion in this field of law. But the medical aspects of the administration of criminal justice far out- weigh those that enter in civil actions. Since the administration of criminal justice involves a controversy between the state and the al- leged criminal offender, medicine owes an obligation to society, and it is the duty, rather than the privilege, of medicine to meet this obliga- tion as competently as possible.

  • A Study Relating to Human DNA Its Ethical Problems and Law
    Legal Status of Human Genetic Material– A Study Relating to Human DNA its Ethical Problems and Law A Thesis Submitted for the Award of Ph.D. degree of UNIVERSITY OF KOTA in the Faculty of Law By Surendra Kumar Under the Supervision of Dr. R.K. Upadhyay Associate Professor DEPARTMENT OF LAW UNIVERSITY OF KOTA KOTA (RAJ.) 2018 CHAPTER–I INTRODUCTION Every day in the newspapers of local, national and international level as well as the television of national and international channel, we read and hear the examples of complicated nature of offences of known and unknown nature. It happens in unknown places and manners and by known or unknown persons like several persons commit adultery with a woman or several persons commit gang rape with a woman or several persons join the commission of an offence or offences with an infant, insane, idiot, illusioned, intoxicated and the like. Sometimes such rape or adulterous relationship result into birth of a child. Therefore, a complicated question arises as to the paternity of the child because it is an age old maxim that “maternity is certainty and paternity is uncertainty”.1 In such matter, in earlier times, super human or super natural means and methods of power used to resolve such issue. But later on these started creating more complications than to resolve the issues. Hence, human being turned towards scientific manner and methods to solve such parentage, heritage, lineage, succession and crime’s issues. The advent of Forensic Science made a revolution in this regard and in the ambit of forensic science, DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) test stands on the top.

  • Science in Forensic Science PERSPECTIVE
    PERSPECTIVE A call for more science in forensic science PERSPECTIVE Suzanne Bella,1, Sunita Sahb, Thomas D. Albrightc, S. James Gates Jr.d, M. Bonner Dentone, and Arturo Casadevallf Edited by Solomon H. Snyder, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, and approved March 21, 2018 (received for review July 28, 2017) Forensic science is critical to the administration of justice. The discipline of forensic science is remarkably complex and includes methodologies ranging from DNA analysis to chemical composition to pattern recognition. Many forensic practices developed under the auspices of law enforcement and were vetted primarily by the legal system rather than being subjected to scientific scrutiny and empirical testing. Beginning in the 1990s, exonerations based on DNA-related methods revealed problems with some forensic disciplines, leading to calls for major reforms. This process generated a National Academy of Science report in 2009 that was highly critical of many forensic practices and eventually led to the establishment of the National Commission for Forensic Science (NCFS) in 2013. The NCFS was a deliberative body that catalyzed communication between nonforensic scientists, forensic scientists, and other stakeholders in the legal community. In 2017, despite continuing problems with forensic science, the Department of Justice terminated the NCFS. Just when forensic science needs the most support, it is getting the least. We urge the larger scientific community to come to the aid of our forensic colleagues by advocating for urgently needed research, testing, and financial support. forensic science | justice | DNA | crime | investigation Forensic science is at a crossroads. It is torn between forensic science.
