House Committee Postpones Hearing on Terri Schiavo Subpoenas
March 23, 2005
A House committee has postponed hearings it had scheduled when it sent subpoenas to Terri Schiavo, her estranged husband, and administrators at the Florida hospice where Terri lives.The House Committee on Government Reform on Wednesday slated to hold the hearing on Friday, but made the decision Wednesday to cancel.
The hearing was scheduled to be held at Woodside Hospice, in Pinellas Park, Florida, and Congressional leaders hoped the subpoenas would be a way to afford Terri further legal protection while her parents pressed forward with their lawsuit to prevent her painful starvation death.
I had heard that the hearing scheduled for Friday was postponed but that the Monday ones might stil be on.
