Only seven reasons?

Good episode. Odd that Sean’s patient wasn’t more forthcoming up front.

If a wife refuses to give a concession for life saving surgery; couldn’t that be manslaughter?

@danio1972 I don't see how it could be, manslaughter being homicide without intent. Either the state produces a witness who heard the husband tell the wife he'd want surgery, in which case you've got murder II, or the husband survives without the treatment, and has a soon-to-be ex-wife. I seriously doubt they would have even been able to get a judge to appoint a guardian ad litem with just Claire's affadavit. They bluffed and won because most people naturally acquiesce to authority figures, even when they're operating outside their domain.
