Question juridique clé
Whether the Zurich guideline requiring a second medical opinion for abortions after 12 weeks violates federal law and Art. 49 BV.
Solution extraite
Art. 119(1) StGB does not permit the canton to make post-12-week abortions dependent on a second medical opinion; the guideline conflicts with federal law.
Motifs extraits
The federal provision is exhaustive. The multilingual text, legislative history, and parliamentary debates show qualified silence: the legislature deliberately omitted a second-opinion requirement.
