The Schindlers didn't even offer the Judge their recommendation for a GAL. Only complained about the default GAL. Not a good legal move.

ED: This is perfect. With the Schindlers having such a weak position and offering no GAL, which makes no sense!, it was a very good day in Court for Terri..Ed

This response states (in part):
"Respondents believe the Ward's interests are best served by a person ... who is familiar with the intricacies of Florida's guardianship statues, who is experienced in acting as a guardian ... Respondents believe a professional guardian, already known to this Court and already having demonstrated a record of reliability, is the best person to serve in this important role. Respondents believe Ms. [Mary Anne] Quartetti meets these criteria, but if the Court for whatever reason does not wish to appoint her, Respondents request that the person appointed be selected from among the pool of professional guardians either in this Circuit or in the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit."
st1, a very earnest request to you: if you don't like something the Schindlers are doing, at least refrain from going off half-cocked. OK?
