| - Cruzan v. Director, Missouri Department of Health, 497 U.S. 261 (1990), was a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States involving a young adult incompetent. The first "right to die" case ever heard by the Court, Cruzan was argued on December 6, 1989 and decided on June 25, 1990. In a 5–4 decision, the Court affirmed the earlier ruling of the Supreme Court of Missouri and ruled in favor of the State of Missouri, finding it was acceptable to require "clear and convincing evidence" of a patient's wishes for removal of life support. A significant outcome of the case was the creation of advance health directives. (en)

Los trabajadores del hospital se negaron a hacerlo sin una orden judicial. Eventualmente, el caso llegó a la Corte Suprema. El 25 de junio de 1990, el Tribunal decidió que era legal exigir "pruebas claras y convincentes" de que detener el soporte vital es lo que una persona hubiera querido. (es)
