At Jeb's next press conference he might as well say "Possession is nine-tenths of the law." They have Terri in hospice and nobody must remove her. That's where it stands. That's where Jeb stands. He won't cross the line.
Greer forbids DCF from picking up Schiavo
Thursday, March 24, 2005
Greer had a busy day Wednesday.
There is concern about the Department of Children and Families possibly removing Terri Schiavo from her Pinellas Park hospice.
Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Court Judge George Greer issued an order Wednesday to forbid that from happening or any other type of interference by DCF or people acting on their behalf.
Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, contacted Greer after getting word that the Florida Department of Law Enforcement was planning to escort DCF investigators to the Woodside Hospice to pick her up, keep her for 24 hours and rehydrate her.
"Since it appears imminent that the department is likely to do something in contravention of that rule of law, this court is going to grant the oral motion," said Greer.
Greer's mandate said anyone that gives Schiavo treatment is breaking the law and will be held in contempt of court. It also put the Pinellas sheriff in charge of the situation in order to make sure FDLE doesn't try to remove Schiavo anyway.
