You contemptible fool. Judicial review hasn’t got anything to do with the facts. The facts are locked in at the trial court level. The only thing reviewed in the higher courts are questions of law and perhaps abuse of discretion which has a very high threshold.

Take your bullshit opinion and choke on it. Scum bag!!!!

Ahh, can you feel the love? God forbid someone would have an opinion opposed to yours, right?

The appellate courts looked at the facts which were presented at the trial court level and reached the conclusion that the facts presented clear and convincing evidence in support of the trial court decision. This is a pretty high standard, and one not taken lightly.

I'm no legal expert. That is not my field. But the understanding that I have is that the apellate courts can only look at the FACTS that were ALLOWED into evidence by GREER. I think you may be mistaken. (Or I may be. It's just what I heard explained on TV by someone who I presumed to be an expert at law.)
