The Nuremberg Hearing Project
We held the hearings. Now we restore the Code.
IoJ has already held hearings on the COVID Nuremberg Code violations, including the presidential hearing in Costa Rica. Next come the hearings that restore the Code, and the Costa Rica case the judges told us to file, where they said the witnesses must be heard.
Your gift funds the hearings, the experts' time, the records, and the legal work that puts consent back into force.

Nuremberg HearingsWhat's coming
Restoring the Code.
Costa Rica · the major case
Ready for court. Waiting on counsel.
In Costa Rica, the Nuremberg Code isn't history. It is written into law. Costa Rica's Code of Medical Ethics, issued by executive decree, names the Nuremberg Code in Article 6 among the principles that govern every doctor (Decreto Ejecutivo 39609-S ↗), and the Biomedical Research Law, Ley 9234 of 2014, makes informed consent binding for research on people. That makes Costa Rica a place where the Code can be enforced in court where it is actually law.
When IoJ appealed, the appeals court said the expert witnesses the lower court had refused to hear must be heard. The case is still live.
It now goes to the Contentious-Administrative Court (Tribunal Contencioso Administrativo), the court that decides whether the State acted lawfully. That court requires licensed counsel from filing to judgment.
IoJ will file once the attorney's fees for the whole case are funded, so the case is argued all the way to judgment, not started and abandoned.
Estimated budget: $120,000 — counsel about $85,000, plus experts, translation and travel. Estimate; firm quote to be obtained with partners.
Fund the Costa Rica case ↑United States
The federal mandamus is step one at home.
It puts the § 1520a(d) report and FDA's answer into the legal record. Once a court defines the products, the six U.S. laws below attach.

New hearings to restore the Code.
More hearings with experts and the injured, recorded in full and filed where courts and lawmakers have to read them.
Where Nuremberg lives in U.S. law
In the U.S., the Code isn't law. These six laws are.
Unlike Costa Rica, the United States never enacted the Nuremberg Code, so you can't sue on it here. So IoJ went looking for the U.S. laws that carry it, and found six.
21 CFR part 50 & 56 ↗
FDA's informed consent and ethics-board rules for research on people.
45 CFR 46.116 ↗
The Common Rule's informed consent requirements.
10 U.S.C. § 980 ↗
No Defense Department money for research on people without prior consent.
10 U.S.C. § 1107 ↗
Consent for service members given investigational products.
50 U.S.C. § 1520a ↗
Consent, and a report to Congress, before testing biological agents on people.
21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3 ↗
The emergency-use law's option to accept or refuse.
- Step one — the mandamus puts the § 1520a(d) report and FDA's answer into the legal record.
- Step two — a court defines the products, and these six laws attach.
- Step three — enforcement, referrals and remedies, built on that record.
