In this ‘in conversation with,’ I talk to Professor John Coggon about his – deliberately! – provocative new paper Is Mental Capacity Law Law?. We think about what ‘law’ means in this context, and what judges are doing in legal terms when they are judging in the Court of Protection. And I charge John with nihilism…
The paper that I mention towards the end by Bernadette Wren is this one: Can the courts be viewed as an appropriate vehicle to settle clinical unease?
