In Washington v. Glucksberg (1997) 521 U.S. 702, the court held the asserted right to assistance in committing suicide was not a fundamental liberty interest protected by the due process clause. (Washington v. Glucksberg, supra, at pp. 705-706.) Although the court did base its holdings in part on the "Nation's history, legal traditions, and practices" (id. at p. 710), we find the detailed historical analyses presented in these Supreme Court cases are not comparable to the unenlightening results of appellant's Westlaw search on case titles in the present case. (See Washington v. Glucksberg, supra, at pp. 710-716.)
