No, California law does not require an autopsy for a known suicide. If the death is suspicious or reasons for death are unknown, an autopsy is required.
An autopsy is not required when a person has been under physicians care in a medical facility at the time of death. The exceptions would be, if the cause of death cannot be determined or if there is reason to believe negligence or a criminal act (such as assisted suicide) is involved. Immediate family members have the legal right to request an autopsy if they so choose whether the attending physician is in agreement or not.
It only appears that way if there is going to be an autopsy, and even then you could use an evidence sheet http://health.howstuffworks.com/autopsy4.htm
No.
its not technically required. however if the DA feels something could have happened i.e. murder, suicide, etc. they could request for one or the family could request one. it really just depends on the circumstances in which the individual passed away and several other factors. Some can include but aren't limited to, age, ethnic background, medical records, etc.
Yes, California allows you to take the exam without going to law school. However, you do have to work with an attorney for a number of years.
No. Ohio has a law that specifically prohibits assisted suicide. As of the early 1990's no state in the USA has a punitive law on the books for either suicide or attempted suicide.
Most law schools merely require an LSAT score, and a college degree.
California does not require a law degree. You can work under a practicing attorney and after a period of time meet the requirements to sit for the exam.
In most states, it is the law that people who die in sudden or unexpected ways be given an autopsy. The reason for this is so that the coroner can rule out foul play, or murder.
No. Suicide is not illegal anywhere in the US.
