Going back over the legal mess known as the Schiavo case, I reach the same conclusion. Judge Greer blew it early, and then he had too much pride to reconsider. All the other judges in the case, except the one dissenter in the 11th Circuit, made the case go away by saying, "It was reviewed thoroughly below."

Both errors are forms of arrogance and laziness that only a veteran judge can achieve. LOL.

Was it pride? Or did he have the mistaken idea that he was preserving the integrity of the court? Did he think it a weakness to reverse himself?
