Severe Brain Injury, Disability, And The Law: Achieving Justice For A Marginalized Population, Megan S. Wright, Nina Varsava, Joel Ramirez, Kyle Edwards, Nathan Guevremont, Tamar Ezer, Joseph Fins
Florida State University Law Review
Thousands of persons with severe brain injury who are minimally conscious or "locked in" are wrongly treated as if they are unconscious. Such individuals are unable to advocate for themselves and are typically segregated from society in hospitals or nursing homes. As a result, they constitute a class of persons who often lack access to adequate medical care, rehabilitation, and assistive devices that could aid them in communication and recovery. While this problem is often approached from a medical or scientific point of view, here we frame it as a legal issue amenable to legal remedies. This Article comprehensively explores …

The Uncharted Waters Of Competition And Innovation In Biological Medicines, Erika Lietzan
The Uncharted Waters Of Competition And Innovation In Biological Medicines, Erika Lietzan
Florida State University Law Review
In 2010, Congress fundamentally changed how federal law encourages the discovery and development of certain new medicines and for the first time authorized less expensive “duplicates” of these medicines to be approved and compete in the marketplace. The medicines at issue are biological medicines—generally, medicines made from, or grown in, living systems. Many of the world’s most important and most expensive medicines for serious and life-threatening diseases are biological medicines. Today, that law is beginning to bear fruit; FDA has begun to approve the first of these duplicates, called “biosimilars,” and the products have begun to enter the marketplace.

Rethinking Body Property, Kara W. Swanson
Rethinking Body Property, Kara W. Swanson
Florida State University Law Review
Body products, including blood, gametes, and kidneys, are a routine part of contemporary medicine. They are also controversial. There is a strong preference for donated gifts, based on an intuition that gifts are pure, altruistic, and healthy, and that purchased products (commodities) are tainted, exploitative, and dangerous. Law and policy reflect this dichotomy, preventing market exchanges either by declaring body products non-property or banning sales by the supplying body. Yet with growing scarcity leading to injustice in the allocation and harvesting of body products, calls to allow sales have been increasing, motivating proposals to increase supplies by compensating bone marrow …
Overtreatment And Informed Consent: A Fraud-Based Solution To Unwanted And Unnecessary Care, Isaac D. Buck
Overtreatment And Informed Consent: A Fraud-Based Solution To Unwanted And Unnecessary Care, Isaac D. Buck
Florida State University Law Review
According to multiple accounts, the administration of American health care results in as much as $800 billion in wasted spending due largely to the provision of overly expensive, inefficient, and unnecessary services. Beyond inflicting fiscal pain on the nation’s pocketbook, this waste has no clinical benefit—and often results in unnecessary hospital stays, cascading follow-up procedures, and time-wasting inconvenience for American patients. But aside from the mere annoyance of unnecessary care, the administration of overtreatment—that is, unnecessary care in and of itself—causes harm to the patient. Excessive care is deficient care. Unnecessary care risks potential medical error and infection, and often …
The Illusion Of Autonomy In Women's Medical Decision-Making, Jamie R. Abrams
The Illusion Of Autonomy In Women's Medical Decision-Making, Jamie R. Abrams
Florida State University Law Review
This Article considers why there is not more conflict between women and their doctors in obstetric decision-making. While patients in every other medical context have complete autonomy to refuse treatment against medical advice, elect high-risk courses of action, and prioritize their own interests above any other decision-making metric, childbirth is viewed anomalously because of the duty to the fetus that the state and the doctor owe at birth. Many feminist scholars have analyzed the complex resolution of these conflicts when they arise, particularly when the state threatens to intervene to override the birthing woman’s autonomy.
This Article instead considers the …

Florida Durable Power Of Attorney Law: The Need For Reform, Robert Craig Waters
Florida Durable Power Of Attorney Law: The Need For Reform, Robert Craig Waters
Florida State University Law Review
The durable power of attorney provides a method of planning for illness or incapacity that is less expensive and restrictive than legal guardianship. Yet current Florida law appears to render durable powers either unenforceable or inaccessible to most of the state's population. In this Article, the author provides a history of the durable power, describes the shortcomings of current Florida law, and proposes broad reform.

Florida's Omnibus Aids Act Of 1988, Robert Craig Waters
Florida State University Law Review
In response to the growing fears and sometimes irrational attitudes associated with the deadly disease AIDS, the 1988 Florida Legislature passed the Omnibus AIDS Act, affecting twelve substantive areas of law. In this Article, the author examines each of these areas, suggests the most likely interpretation the courts will accord the new provisions, and makes recommendations to correct oversights and inconsistencies in existing laws.
