4. I'm sure no judge likes death threats
As far as them getting pissed. I would imagine they get pissed at frivilous non meritorious appeals, but by the SAME TOKEN...where a judge has ventured outside the confines of the law, one would HOPE a case would be appealed. The purpose of an appeal is to demonstrate that a LEGAL ERROR was made that affected the outcome of a case.

In this case, it has now been determined 2 dozen times that no legal error was made.

Those claiming that Michael did this and Michael did that should read the ORIGINAL opinion of Judge Greer.

He had problems with BOTH sides in this argument, but nevertheless felt he had sufficient information to do what the law required him to do which was to discern what Terri Schiavo would want.

It didn't help that her mother IMPEACHED herself by claiming that at the age of 20, Terri told her she would want to live when discussing Karen Ann Quinlan. It turned out that discussion ACTUALLY took place when Terri was 11 or 12.

Whether they get pissed about going back to work or not is not a matter of concern. That's what they are paod for.

Their opinions on the matters of law are in writing and a matter of public record for all to see.
