Ordering marshals to take custody would certainly have had an impact.

Yeah, a physical impact. "Shootout at the OK Hospice." It's a lot easier to snatch an alert child from a residence than an inert woman from a fully occupied and guarded medical building.

More than changing the law, changing how cases are heard would be an improvement.


I'm not sure which cases you're talking about, whether it's health care cases or cases, in general. In any event, to change how cases are heard you change the law governing same.

I would think (flying blind here) that changing the law governing new evidence or disputed evidence would be much tougher than changing the law governing health care directives. You're talking about a big-time systemic change without any apparent public constituency. At least changing the medical directives law has a constituency.
