There is no such thing as the Nuremburg Law. There is a Nuremburg Code, but it has not been incorporated into law either by act of Congress or by Treaty.
**********************************************************************************
Some parts of the Nuremberg Code have been incorporated into Federal Code. And there have been court cases which uphold some of those.
For example:
45 CFR Sec. 46.116
10 U.S.C. 1107
21 U.S.C. 360bbb-3
Canterbury v Spence - It was recognized that consent required the informed exercise of choice. The disclosure made by the doctor should have provided the patient with an opportunity to assess the available options and the risks of such options.
Cobbs v Grant - held that a physician is bound to disclose all known material risks peculiar to the proposed procedure.
Wilkinson v Vesey - held that a physician is bound to disclose all known material risks peculiar to the proposed procedure.
Reference to the Nuremberg Code is also referenced as Nuremberg Laws. They are referenced both ways by The Hague for convicting Nazis.
