I've explained this too many times now. What do you think Whittemore was supposed to do, and show me where the law said to do it.
If you think it's opinion why not go find the statutes and the judicial canons for Florida and prove it.
For starters, the law for 1-9 said "may," not "shall." It's up to the judge's discretion. I believe Greer has very bad discretion, but that isn't illegal or impeachable, and obviously not enough to be overturned by the appeals courts.
WRONG AGAIN. The law said SHALL. not may, not could, not if, but SHALL.
For the relief of the parents of Theresa Marie Schiavo.
The United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida SHALL have jurisdiction to hear, determine, and render judgment on a suit or claim by or on behalf of Theresa Marie Schiavo for the alleged violation of any right of Theresa Marie Schiavo under the Constitution or laws of the United States relating to the withholding or withdrawal of food, fluids, or medical treatment necessary to sustain her life.
* * * In such a suit, the District Court SHALL determine de novo any claim of a violation of any right of Theresa Marie Schiavo within the scope of this Act, notwithstanding any prior State court determination and regardless of whether such a claim has previously been raised, considered, or decided in State court proceedings. The District Court SHALL entertain and determine the suit without any delay or abstention in favor of State court proceedings, and regardless of whether remedies available in the State courts have been exhausted.
