The first appellate brief should be filed today in the Lauren Richardson case. This, of course, assumes that my math is right. It is probable that I have overlooked some special Delaware ways to count holidays or weekends.

For anyone curious about Medical Futility like we saw with plenty of our own detractors in the Texas Futile Care Law, this blog will be of interest. It is the one linked just above, by Mr. Pope.

A de novo hearing? Well, it didn’t work out for Terri. Judge Whittemore ran out the clock and didn’t even permit water to touch Terri’s lips while he was running out the clock and then saying, “no” de novo. It wasn’t his call. He was ordered by U.S. Congress and Bush 43 and HE DEFIED THEIR ORDER. (since the fix was in, he was never held in contempt of Congress which is what would have happened had Congress not been in in the fix).
