In September 1990... the Supreme Court ruled that Floridians have the right to refuse medical treatment, no matter what the treatment or the prognosis.

September, 1990 is after Terri's alleged comment, "No tubes for me."

Terri "collapsed" in January of 1990, many months before the FSS Court decision, which makes it easy to remove feeding tubes.

George Felos, Mike Schiavo, and George W. Greer are, in effect, retroactively applying the September 1990 decision to Terri .

If the law is changed to in a way that would give jail time to those who remove food tubes in uncertain circumstances, I hope Felos, Greer, and Schiavo have it retroactively applied to them.

Looks like permission from the Pinellas/Pasco Medical Examiner will be needed if Mike-el Diablo decides to cremate Terri's body.
XI. CREMATION APPROVAL (Florida Statutes 406.11(1)(c))

Will Greer try to arrange a way for Mike to circumvent Florida law?

Did you note that it also requires a positive determination of the initiating event of her demise (which, per Felos et al., would be her 1990 collapse)? And further it requires that any evidence of trauma be examined.

Seems to me that the Pinellas County Medical Examiner should do an inquest to determine whether any of Terri's trauma could be related to her initial collapse.
