Okay enough of this empty argument. Yes there is a presumption that a spouse can stand as guardian, but that presumption can be reversed by the facts such as conflict of interest for example.
THe same courts have on many occasions overlooked the prima facie right of parents to be guardians where they have refused blood transfusions to their children.
So stop repeating over and over that he is her husband.That is not the final criteriun to determine guardianship,but only one that can be overriden,and obviously should have been in this case.

Honestly, I don't see how Greer let HINO keep gaurdianship of Terri since there is a huge conflict of interest here, seeing he is living with another women of whom he has had children with.

My entire point is that is WAS NOT overridden, and many here were claiming that is was is some way. Weather or not it should be in beside the point. It wasn't.

I'm only repeating it because people keep bringing it up. I'd love to quit repeating it! If others would drop it, I will.
