Alberta woman who came to B.C. for medical assistance in dying ( MAID ) had the procedure blocked by a judge.

The woman, who cannot be named, has a history of bipolar disorder and believes she has a condition called akathisia , which is an inability to remain still.

A notice of civil claim alleges the doctor's approval of the MAID procedure did not meet the legal criteria.
