Memory of reports says something akin is the case; nothing specific now on TEJ on recent ruling.
Call me old-fashioned, it just seems wrong that a judge can murder over the objections of the congress and president (not to mention the Ten Commandments, Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution), then order the record sealed.
It's that Creator-endowed unalienable right to Life business which has captivated my attention.
For if we have a Constitution which be living, the boys in black robes can pull its feeding tube, then it be most bodaciously unviable.

The Empire Journal did a story on Greer's refusal to release the files to St. Petersburg Times
http://www.theempirejournal.com/0402051_greer_denies_release_of.htm
He was supposed to hear a similar motion Monday, April 4 from the Tampa Tribune but there's no reason to believe that he did anything different with that motion. The supposed reason why he didn't open the files to the public is that DCF is presumably still conducting an investigation and opening the files would "interfere" with that investigation. I think release would make DCF that much more accountable. DCF isn't going to do anything. Had they been serious about doing their job, they would have done it, taken her into protective custody under 415. They didn't need to go to Greer to do so---but they did because they knew he would deny it and that's what they wanted. DCF needs to be investigated---Nagatani and all the higher ups. DCF is as much a reason that Terri died as Greer. DCF never protected her
