I can and will say "never". If there was an ability to remove this or other judges under these circumstances, our entire legal system would be put in jeopardy. Imagine- try a case and after the case is heard, all the evidence and testimony presented and the case finally submitted to the Court- remove the judge and start over from scratch. This could go on ad nauseum. Cases could, and would, go on forever until, in this case, Bush and the legislature finds a favorable Court and wins. This would send the case up to the appellate level and of course be reversed.

As to "Baird made his opinion public, before hearing both sides of the case..." That issue was put to rest by the decision of the appellate court who found that there was no "foul" and supported their decision with the relevent case law. That decision could be appealed to the Florida Supreme Court, however it isn't likely that it will be accepted.

Cases are tossed on appeal all the time for improper venue, and Baird didn't do much besides rubber-stamp Greer, anyway, so where's the harm in letting Khouzam take it over? Are you trembling to think what might happen if she does?

Statistically, MS, the HINO, is far more likely to kill or attempt to kill his wife than a stranger. The fact that he has tried to kill at least Terri twice before seeking the court's permission might not play too well in front on Judge Nelly Khouzam, who has little sympathy for llama abusers and even less, I'm sure, for wife-beaters.

Intimates are defined to include spouses, ex-spouses, boyfriends, and girlfriends

Most victims of intimate homicide are killed by their spouses, although much less so in recent years.

Legal machinations are one thing; moral right and wrong are another. Because a flummery of "judges" states that Alice did not walk through the looking glass, doesn't mean she in fact didn't.

cyn: IOW, Terri's fight is up against an unbelievable enemy who fights dirty and to the death.

daylate, I know you're being accurate here, but so is cyn. It's always possible to find a justification under the law without serving justice, especially when the courts are stacked in favor of an agenda.

I've read many of the briefs filed on behalf of Terri, and many posts on FR, which quote law and precedence, and build a strong case in her favor. Since prejudiced judges are the ones who are calling the shots, it is the pro Terri arguments that are being flushed down the toilet, citations and all.

Under the law, justice is being miscarried, because the ones calling the shots "fight dirty and to the death."

Two thousand years ago, there were those who had asked if it was right to pay the tax. Their question purposely set up God's law vs. that of man, in order to set a trap for Jesus. They were quite surprised, to put it mildly, when they found out there was another option. "Render under Caesar" never occured to them. I'm hoping that these corrupt judges will end up being every bit as surprised, and as totally foiled, under the law, and by the same Person.
