Different as to the person giving the testimony, obviously. And I stand corrected, to the extent that it was the friend's testimony that was in the news.
But as for Judge Greer's error (that Quinlan died in 1976 - or was not alive in 1982), I believe also plays into Mrs. Schindler's testimony. Her "admission" notwhistanding, her initial testimony was that she and Terri had a conversation when Terri was in her teens, well over the age of 11. What courtroom exchange prompted her to "admit" that Terri must have been 11 at the time of their dialog? Was it something on the order of "Terri couldn't have bee in her teens at the time of the discussion, Ms. Quinlan was not alive at that time." ?
Sufice to say, there was an appeal, it was addressed, and everyone but you moved on.
