Your suggestion for the Schindlers to sue Terri so that they can demand that she appear in court is brilliant and creative. With Michael being her guardian, it would again be a suit against him as her legal representative.
The composition and wording of such an action and complaint would be fascinating. Might it be rejected in view of her parents years-long efforts fighting for an opposite result? It would certainly be interesting to see what would happen. If the suit was accepted, would HINO be able to prevent Terri appearing in court, or at least a judge seeing Terri in person?
Thanks! The Schindlers could send Terri interrogatories and ask for her DEPOSITION. She would have to be seen by a court reporter and whatever "responses" she had would be DOCUMENTED as SWORN TESTIMONY.
Plus, they probably would get a DIFFERENT JUDGE and if they didn't, they could ask for a new Judge (I can't remember what it is called, but the "bad guys" in MY fraud case (i.e. I'm the Plaintiff) did it to me and my THREE-YEAR-old case got removed to the bankruptcy court).
The bankruptcy court didn't buy their shenanigans (sp?), though, because the law dictates that a case as old as mine (which is basically at the climax) needs to be tried in the original court, especially since there wasn't a federal issue.
But the Schindler's case would be a NEW CASE!!! The other thing the "bad guys" did to me is "lawyer swapping." Every time some major issue would come up, they would have a "new" lawyer come in to get the Judge to give them extra time (since they were new). It only works for so long, however, and since we pointed it out to the Judge, it probably won't happen again.
