| | Informed consent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | It may not be legally possible to give consent to certain activities in certain jurisdictions; see the Operation Spanner case for an example of this in the UK which involved extreme sadomasochistic activities such as branding. | | | The question of whether informed consent needs to be formally given before sexual intercourse or other sexual activity, and whether this consent can be withdrawn at any time during the act, is an issue which is currently being discussed in the United States in regard to rape and sexual assault legislation. | | | In other cases, consent of someone on behalf of a person not considered able have informed consent is valid. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Consent (In Canon Law) |
| | Consent is the deliberate agreement required of those concerned in legal transactions in order to legalize such actions. | | | This consent must include the material object of the matrimonial contract, which material object is the mutual right of one party to the body of the other, a right that carries with it every prerogative vested therein by the laws of nature. | | | Common law regards marriage as a civil contract for which consent alone is essential. |

| | Investigators must obtain legally valid informed consent from each subject or from the subject’s legally authorized representative (power of attorney, or authorized court appointed guardian /representative) for any nonexempt research. | | | When potential research subjects are not competent to give legally valid informed consent, respect for a person's autonomy mandates that the investigator obtain their voluntary assent to participate, in addition to obtaining the informed consent of a parent, guardian, or other legally authorized representative. | | | Subjects document their consent by signing the most recent copy of the consent form that has a signed and dated IRB approval stamp (please note the expiration date on the stamp). |

| | Indeed, contract law requires consideration to be provided by both parties as a pre-condition to the formation of a contract (and hence to the existence of a consent). | | | The term 'implied consent' is useful to refer to circumstances in which an individual's action (or perhaps inaction) reasonably causes another party to interpret consent as having been granted. | | | This may also be express (in which case it involves a signification that may or may not give rise to a record), or it may be implied, or inferred. |
