Organ transplant decisions should be made by doctors, not courts is written by Carla Hall, it was published in the organ donor section of the Los Angeles Times newspaper on June 13, 2013. This article is about how the courts are trying to control doctors operations. The courts are trying to tell doctors who to give the transplants to and when they should give them to a specific patient. "We don’t let people buy organs and we don’t let someone’s race or religion dictate where they stand in line for them. Nor should we let the civil courts--or the court of public opinion--subvert medical decisions" ( Hall). I chose this article because I had no idea that court houses had any control with organ donations. I always thought it was up to the doctors and the doctors only. This article informed me that there is more to this topic "Organ Donations" then I thought there was.
