District Court Judge The guy's nowhere near that important. He's a county probate judge, about a step above a Justice of the Peace - a position that typically doesn't even require a law degree.
Greer's a nobody who is doggedly trying to be a somebody. What's funny is that the somebodies are letting him kick them around. He has now stuck his tongue out at the President, the Governor, Congress, pretty much everyone. The courts go along with him because, well, they're all attorneys wearing black robes too - they like the idea of being in control. So they won't jam him up.

He is indeed a pissant district court judge, but he DOES believe he is a demi-god, and his legal buds are backing him up. And yes, he effectively DID offer his middle finger to the entire legislature of the United States, a governor, and a sitting President.

That's exactly how I see it. The judicial clique in action. I'm just appalled at the bunch of candy-assed sissy-girls the executive branch in Florida has turned out to be.
