Below is the court decision handed down by the Superior Court of CA on
the Dora Kent case.  Perhaps someone else could get hold of the decision
on the AIDS patient's case (Roe vs somebody)?  


SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE

TITLE: SAUL KENT, ET AL VS RAYMOND L. CARRILLO, ET AL| 2/1/88 DEPT 10| R 191277

     1.   That the Coroner threatens to thaw the remains of decedents in 
suspension at the Alcor Foundation even though the Coroner has stated that 
he has no intention "at this time to thaw out or otherwise remove them from
cryonic suspension" which act would be in violation of the rights of the
decedents.

Foundation and of Dora Kent, if and when found, would produce irreparable 
injury.

     4.   No evidence that Dora Kent was alive when she was decapitated.

     5.   That the Coroner has not nor does he threaten to destroy or
alter any form of death certificate pertaining to Dora Kent, whether
