Thanks for the post. It clears up in my mind why the Governor's attorney believes there is a right to a jury trial for Terri.

Now I don't see any viable argument on the other side to deny Terri this right. But I guess they'll make something up.

Thought this would interest you: Jury trial sought to decide what Schiavo wanted

I think it would help if Governor Bush is encouraged by a showing of public support to guarantee Terri's right to a trial by jury to determine her wishes! Perhaps someone can post the appropriate phone and fax numbers and e-mail addresses. I do believe if an appeal is made to a federal district court via the 14th Amendment’s due process [the right of trial by jury being within that due process, and its protection not being granted to Terri] there is too much case law to refuse her this right.
