SO at worst Michael is an adulterer.

Is that not grounds for divorce in Florida?

It's ground for ARREST and PROSECUTION in Florida. An adultery arrest would be a good way to justify suspending Michael Schiavo's guardianship; I've emailed and called Jeb's office to inform them but they don't seem to care:

Florida Stat. Ann. 798.01 - Living in open adultery:

"Whoever lives in an open state of adultery shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison not exceeding two years, or in the county jail not exceeding one year, or by fine not exceeding five hundred dollars. Where either of the parties living in an open state of adultery is married, both parties so living shall be deemed to be guilty of the offense provided for in this section."

Wow, thank you for that. I'm going to verify and email that as well. I simply cannot believe this hasn't been made the crux of the argument. Are Terri's lawyers that incompetent, or is Mandarin Greer that incompetent?

Well, after searching the internet, I see that somebody has tried these legal arguments already, including trying to get a jury trial. I don't have time to delve into it, but somebody has already thought of them. In which case, the judiciary is just ignoring a ton of existing law in this case. This reaffirms my distaste for judges. Power corrupts, etc. What a disgrace.

To all who think adding more laws will solve the problem, there are plenty of laws already on the books that are being ignored in this case. Evidently, the law doesn't matter, just who is in charge at any given moment in time, and how willing they are to ignore the law. I've always suspected that. That is why the only issue I'm "fanatical" about is being anti-gun control. Truly, they are your last line of defence, because all of this other crap will fail you at some point.

I'm for it but they'd have to then arrest half of Florida next.
