Outpatient Mental Health Care Services - A Minor's Right, John V. Cogbill Iii Jan 1979

Outpatient Mental Health Care Services - A Minor's Right, John V. Cogbill Iii

University of Richmond Law Review

The 1979 Session of the General Assembly made important changes in Title 54 of the Code of Virginia pertaining to health care for minors.

Additionally, lawmakers deleted the criminal sanctions imposed against medical practitioners who performed authorized abortions on consenting minors. This bill appears to bring into Virginia a partial realization of a child's right to due process and equal protection under the law.
