Indeed. Assuming this is Orange/Seminole circuit court the appeal would go... where? To FL Supreme Court or would it to the Federal District. It should be appealed on the basis of the actual judge who should have recused herself. What a kangaroo biotch with political aspirations. Oh, and a porker to boot.
This is how the neo-socialist Crist FL would work— take note Freepers.
What is interesting is that Zimmerman could have sued in pretty much any state in the country since NBC published the defamatory story in every state. His lawyer should have picked a more friendly venue in another district in Florida or another state.
