Thank you for letting us know, tbritton, that Monday is NOT a holiday in Florida, so we can continue calling on that day. I apologize for my part in the misinformation as far as Florida goes.
I copied your message for the convenience of all:
"While President's Day is a federal holiday, it is not an observed state holiday in Florida (you can see the list of Florida state holidays 2000->Ch0110->Section%20117>HERE. Our state legislature is not currently in session (and won't be until March 5), although a number of the state senators and representatives are actually in Tallahassee attending pre-session legislative committee meetings. It's a pretty good bet, though, that many of the legislators and their associated employees are "taking" February 21 as a holiday, however, as there are no committee meetings scheduled on that day.
President's Day is not observed as a holiday by either the Florida 6th Judicial Circuit Court, which is Judge Greer's circuit (you can see their holiday schedule here) or the Florida 2nd District Court of Appeal (holiday schedule here), so there is no reason to be surprised that Judge Greer's court is in session on Monday, February 21, and no reason to think that the 2nd DCA won't be in "business as usual" mode on that same day.
Since the subject of the hearing on Monday is a new stay on the removal of Terri's feeding tube, and we keep hearing that the current stay will be lifted on Tuesday...I thank God that Monday isn't a holiday."
