Legal go-ahead for 'locked-in' case
Legal action brought by locked-in syndrome sufferer Tony Nicklinson, who wants a doctor to be able to end his “intolerable” life lawfully, can go ahead following a judge’s ruling in Britain today.
The decision was announced at the High Court in London by Mr Justice Charles, who had been asked to decide on a preliminary “strike out” application in the case made by the Ministry of Justice.
