From February 2000 - Judge rejects intervention of group in Schiavo case

(excerpt)
Pinellas Circuit Judge George Greer will not allow a group of doctors, lawyers and other professionals to intervene in the case of a St. Petersburg woman with brain damage whose family is divided on whether to remove her feeding tube. Professionals for Excellence in Health Care wanted the judge to allow them to argue that Terri Schiavo, 36, should be kept alive despite her husband's request to let her die.

In his order denying the motion, Greer writes that the group's arguments are philosophical and perhaps should be directed to state lawmakers.


Hmmmmmmm, isn't that Terri's Law in 2003?

Good find, Thanks.

This, Judge Greer's own words, may be important to bring up in the defense of Terri's law.
