What would be the effect of medical ethics in addition to the legal framework? If, for example, the eighth amendment to the Constitution was deleted next year and we had a transition period, how would medical ethics deal with this issue? Would doctors still be required to deal with whatever law is on the Statute Book, would there be an interregnum or what would happen?
