Lawyer: Schiavo Ruling Expected Soon

"The appeals court didn't indicate when it might rule, but George Felos, the attorney for Terri's husband, Michael Schiavo, told the Associated Press that he expected a decision before daybreak Wednesday."

and

"The Justice Department also filed a court statement, saying an injunction was "plainly warranted" to carry out the wishes of Congress to provide federal court jurisdiction over the case. Unless the feeding tube is reinserted, the department said, Schiavo may die before the courts can resolve her family's claims. "No comparable harm will be caused" by letting Schiavo live while the case is reviewed, the filing said. "

Good to see the Justice Department filed a brief for re-insertion of the feeding tube during the court process. Of course the Courts haven't been kind to the idea up to now.

Sadly, if the courts were going to attach the tube, they would have done it by now.
