Besides the obvious moral concerns of this case, I'm fascinated by J.Greer's contempt of Congress' order to have T. Schiavo appear at a committee hearing. Is he actually liable for a contempt of congress charge?

I am not aware that the judge actually did anything in response to the discussion of the subpoena? Nor am I aware if it was ever served on Terri. I had heard that it was simply mailed to someone, but I have no idea to whom. Do you know?

So, two questions.

1. What is your understanding of what the judge did in "...contempt of Congress' order to have T. Schiavo appear at a committee hearing"?

2. Who was the subpoena served upon and how was it accomplished?

Excellent questions. Going from memory, I'm confidant that the judge expressed to someone that the subpoena simply didn't apply and/or was unconstitutional.

I assume that meant that the subpoena came to him through some route.
