Hard to guess who that is!!
I just pinged you to the thread....maybe someone on there is going who lives in your area.
I should add: They must continue the lie that judges make the law, AND THAT THEY HAVE ULTIMATE AUTHORITY AND FINAL SAY ON ALL MATTERS. They are "supreme," even the lowly Judge Greer.
I agree, just heard on the radio that there is also a request for him to recuse himself. Maybe this will be able to be pursued in the federal court when he denies it. I hope they have the appeal papers ready to roll once he does.
Greer has been sked to recuse himself previously but there was no other avenue to pursue as far as I know.
This is the pertaining statute....

38.10 Disqualification of judge for prejudice; application; affidavits; etc.--Whenever a party to any action or proceeding makes and files an affidavit stating fear that he or she will not receive a fair trial in the court where the suit is pending on account of the prejudice of the judge of that court against the applicant or in favor of the adverse party, the judge shall proceed no further, but another judge shall be designated in the manner prescribed by the laws of this state for the substitution of judges for the trial of causes in which the presiding judge is disqualified. Every such affidavit shall state the facts and the reasons for the belief that any such bias or prejudice exists and shall be accompanied by a certificate of counsel of record that such affidavit and application are made in good faith. However, when any party to any action has suggested the disqualification of a trial judge and an order has been made admitting the disqualification of such judge and another judge has been assigned and transferred to act in lieu of the judge so held to be disqualified, the judge so assigned and transferred is not disqualified on account of alleged prejudice against the party making the suggestion in the first instance, or in favor of the adverse party, unless such judge admits and holds that it is then a fact that he or she does not stand fair and impartial between the parties. If such judge holds, rules, and adjudges that he or she does stand fair and impartial as between the parties and their respective interests, he or she shall cause such ruling to be entered on the minutes of the court and shall proceed to preside as judge in the pending cause. The ruling of such judge may be assigned as error and may be reviewed as are other rulings of the trial court.
History.--s. 4, ch. 7852, 1919; RGS 2674; s. 1, ch. 9276, 1923; CGL 4341; s. 3, ch. 83-260; s. 212, ch. 95-147.
This is all great, but at the end of this day it is going to be to late.
I'd like to see Dateline NBC investigate all the allegations an innuendos against Michael Schiavo. Treat him like they treated Scott Peterson--with justifiable suspicion.
Everyone go read the latest headline at http://www.theempirejournal.com/
Please tell me what this means???
In addition, the woman can swallow, she has been tube fed due to her husbands threats to not feed her any other way. They removed the tube, but if she isn't able to swallow, why the arrest of people trying to bring her water? why not let a priest in to allow communion? why deny her fluid?
My point is she is not being kept alive by feeding tube, if she can swallow. It's not removal of life support, it's is death by starvation. Quite different.
I think we all share the same sense of urgency!!
Well, not by law, a restraining order should not trump.
I know, I know, I'm preachin' to the choir..
It isn't coincidence at all that this is occuring Holy Week.
We will never forget about her now. No way.
Of course not, this is a huge reminder of what our lord and Savior did for us on the cross!
Here's the legal definition for ya:
Qui Tam Action
(kwee tam) n. Latin meaning "who as well," Lawsuit brought by a private citizen (a whistle blower) against someone or a company who is considered to have violated the law when performing a contract with the government or violated a government regulation when a statute exists to provide remedies for such violations. Quit tam suits are brought for "the government as well as the plaintiff." In such actions, the plaintiff is entitled to a percentage of the penalties recovered (which may include large amounts for breach of contract) as a reward for recovering funds for the government by exposing the wrongdoing. The federal or state government will get involved and become a party to the suit, being part of any negotiations and conduct of the case in order to guarantee success. This type of action generally involves significant violates that involve criminal or fraudulent acts, not necessarily technical violations and/or errors.
Exactly!
But if the world knew she swallowed that communion some folks will definitely be looking for their passports, no?
Go to that thread, it's active in the sidebar, that would be the place to ask!
I believe it!
Terri is suffering in a Hospice bed, while Jeb (who left his spine somewhere) is just fine in the Governor's mansion. He wants us to give up the fight just because he has.
He's saying, "Ooooooooh, everybody just stop expecting anything from me. Ok?"
{{{hugs}}} You MUST be tired! I've slept 14 hours only since Friday and you've been on here the entire time!
My husband asked me when I plan on doing laundry or dishes. I was worried he might get mad, but he's been patting me on the back and lending moral support. Between all night vigils praying for Terri, pouring through the Bible, calling Senators, DCF, etc... emailing, we are all getting a little burry-eyed. I actually cried this am because I had no sugar for my coffee, and that's not like me! LOL! And I'm still trying to keep up with a webcam and results from a tournament in Denmark my son is in.
I feel the need to pray for strength for everyone who is praying for Terri. Sometimes the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. I know mine has been. Can someone offer up a prayer for the thousands who are keeping vigil for Terri to stay strong? I'm not always good with words.
As you say, that's the way it's supposed to be.
I'd say it has to do with the DCF employee who would love to blow the whistle on DCF for quashing investigations into Terri's abuse as early as 2003, but would not testify unless under subpoena and protection.
All in all, I'd say if they can expedite matters, it's good news! Or at least an effort!
