The father of a 27-year-old woman approved to receive medical assistance in dying has filed an appeal in Calgary in his continuing effort to prevent his daughter from ending her life.

W.V. believes his daughter is generally healthy and that any physical symptoms she may have result from undiagnosed psychological conditions. W.V. then asked the judge to order a judicial review, which would examine how his daughter was approved for MAID. The father also wanted the interim injunction to continue to prevent M.V. from accessing MAID to be extended while the review took place.Notice of appeal

In her notice of appeal, Miller asked the court to reinstate the injunction until the application for judicial review can be heard.Miller signaled her intent to argue that the lower court erred in making assumptions about M.V.'s health and the process and "the decision to approve M.V.'s MAID request, which presupposes the legitimacy of the MAID approval and eligibility."Currently, two doctors or nurse practitioners have to approve a patient for MAID.
