Look winston, you've self identified as a lawyer. You know as well as I do that your question and comment are irrelevant. The question is not whether he has a conflict it's whether he may have a conflict. The answer to that is self evident. Of course he may.

And so we must ask why Judge Greer and the Florida Superior Courts simply ignore the law as written by the Florida Legislature.

Well, there has to be at least a possible conflict. Obviously, any person "may have" a conflict depending on the facts and while I am not familiar with Florida case law construing that provision, there would have to be at least some fact-based possibility of a conflict. Thus, my question. In order to make the argument, one must have at least a theory as to how the conflict could arise.

This is not a trick question. What's the theory behind your "self-evident" assumption and what are the facts supporting the possibility? Didn't the parents' lawyers argue this to Judge Greer? To the Florida Supreme Court?

It all depends on what the definition of "is" is.
