L. Ron Hubbard's doctrines ingrain a new definition of morality into
his followers:
"The ONLY concern for a Scientologist is to do every thing he or she
can to help Scientology. All other concerns such as family,
profession, society and even the law of the land, are trivia unless
they might impact on Scientology."

Judge Greer has violated the Constitution as well as MANY Florida
statutes in the Terri Schindler Schiavo guardianship case.
Scientology attorney Wally Pope gave him a prestigious award for
doing so!
Judge Greer's rulings, which violate Florida Statutes and the
Constitution of the United States are as follows:
1. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(2 ) for failure to discharge his
duties as guardian. The statute requires that the guardian protect
the rights of the ward, provide for her health and safety, properly
manage her financial resources and help her regain her abilities to
the maximum extent possible.
2. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(3) for abuse of his powers as
evidenced by his denying her any significant sensory stimulation and
his efforts to have her life ended.
3. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(7) for wasting, embezzlement, or
other mismanagement of the ward's property, one example is Michael's
statement on national television that he had Terri's wedding rings
melted down and made into jewelry for himself.
4. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(11) because of a conflict of
interest between the ward and the guardian due to Michael Schiavo
living with and fathering children with another woman.
5. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(13) for failure to comply with
the guardianship report.
6. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(14) for failure to file annual
guardianship reports in a timely manner.
7. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(16) for improperly managing the
ward's assets by using Terri's money which was awarded by a court to
be used for her rehabilitation but at the authorization of Judge
Greer is being used to pay legal fees in an effort to end Terri's
life.
8. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(17) because there has been a
significant change in Terri's assets due to the actions of her
guardian. Terri's assets have likely increased since her accident
and Michael Schiavo is denying Terri the benefit of any assets
accrued after the malpractice award which would be equally hers as
Michael's legal spouse.
9. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian even though he should be removed as Terri's guardian
pursuant to Florida Statute 744.474(18) because Michael's adulterous
relationship (which is a misdemeanor under Florida law) with another
woman ought to disqualify Michael as a suitable guardian for Terri
as the interest which Michael said (in malpractice trial court
proceedings) he had toward Terri is directed to another woman who is
not his wife and has two children by said other woman of whom he is
the father.
10. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to remain as Terri's
guardian and has aided Michael in abusing, neglecting, and
exploiting Terri, a vulnerable adult, by appropriating funds that
were awarded for her rehabilitation to pay legal fees, and has aided
in exploiting Terri by denying the money to be used for her benefit.
Both these infractions were committed with the
knowledge that Terri lacked the capacity to consent and explained in
detail in Florida Statute 415.102.
11. Judge Greer's rulings to date have deprived Terri Schiavo of her
constitutional right to enjoy and defend life and liberty, to pursue
happiness, to be rewarded for industry, and to acquire, possess and
protect property which are detailed in Section 2 of the Florida
Constitution by ordering her life to be ended by denying her
hydration and nutrition.
12. Judge Greer has deprived Terri of her constitutional religious
rights by allowing Michael Schiavo to prevent Monsignor Malonowski
from visiting Terri, by allowing Michael to prevent Monsignor
Malinowski from administering last rites when her feeding tube was
removed in October 2003, and by allowing Michael to prevent Terri's
blood relatives from placing pictures of religious figures in her
room.
13. Judge Greer has allowed Terri's constitutional right to privacy
to be violated by Michael Schiavo by not restricting his comments
during interviews on national television.
14. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215C(a) To
have an annual review of the guardianship report and plan.
15. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(b) (b) to
have continuing review of the need for restriction of her rights.
16. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right to be restored to
capacity, FL statute 744.3215C.
17. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(d) (d) to
be treated humanely, with dignity and respect, and to be protected
against abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
18. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(e) to have
a qualified guardian.
19. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(f) to
remain as independent as possible, including having her preference
as to place and standard of living honored, either as she expressed
or demonstrated her preference prior to the determination of his or
her incapacity or as she currently expresses her preference, insofar
as such request is reasonable.
20. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215 (g) to be
properly educated. She is not receiving any rehabilitative therapy.
21. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215 (h) to
receive prudent financial management for her property and to be
informed how her property is being managed. Michael Schiavo stated
on national television that he melted Terri's wedding rings down and
had them made into jewelry for himself. [See: Scientology Treats
Terri Schindler Schiavo as if She is Already Dead
http://www.libertytothecaptives.net/scientology_treats_terri_schindle
r_schiavo_as_dead.html]
22. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215 (i) to
receive necessary services and rehabilitation. Judge Greer has
allowed Michael to deprive Terri of the same. She did not have a
working wheelchair for an extended and unnecessarily long period of
time.
23. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215 (k) to
have access to the courts. Judge Greer has relied upon the testimony
of others related to Michael Schiavo as to Terri's condition yet
ignored the testimony of her blood relatives which was contradictory
to information provided by Michael and his family.
24. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(l) to
counsel.
25. Judge Greer has denied Terri the right under 744.3215(m) to
receive visitors and communicate with others.
26. Judge Greer has allowed violation of 744.3215(a) by allowing
Terri to be moved to different facilities without prior approval of
the court.
27. Judge Greer has allowed violation of 744.3215(b) not requiring
Michael to have follow up examinations of electrodes, which were
implanted in Terri's brain. These implants should have been removed
years ago, as they are a source for both infection and
hydrocephalus. Hydrocephalus may cause pressure that could suppress
cognitive function and be responsible for much of Terri's condition.
If so, there could be a vast improvement in her condition if a shunt
were placed. Hydrocephalus could also cause pressure that would
flatten the brain and show fluid filled areas on a brain scan.
28. Judge Greer has allowed Michael to violate a court order stating
that he is to keep Terri's family advised of her medical condition.
29. Judge Greer has ignored Terri's right under 765.102(5)(a) to
palliative care which addresses physical, psychological, social,
spiritual, and existential needs of patients.
30. Judge Greer has not required Michael Schiavo to implement a plan
which would provide for Terri's needs under 765.102(5)(a).
31. Judge Greer has allowed Michael Schiavo to neglect Guardianship
Education, which is a requirement under Florida law.
32. Judge Greer relied on Dr. Ronald Cranford's definition of PVS
(Persistent Vegetative State) instead of the legal definition
contained in the Florida Statutes. There were several doctors who
gave reports that Terri is not PVS but Greer decided not to use the
Florida Statute's definition.
33. Judge Greer has failed to be impartial and has ignored testimony
and evidence presented by Counsel for Terri's natural family and has
consistently ruled in agreement with Counsel for Michael Schiavo.
34. Judge Greer has allowed Michael to continue denying visitation
to Terri's family even though a police investigation found that they
were not responsible for marks found on her arm.
35. Judge Greer in his February 11, 2000 Order, committed
malpractice by
misdiagnosing Terri as being an unconscious and unaware person and
then ordered the Guardian of the Ward to commit a 1st Degree Felony
Crime by removing Terri's feeding tube and denying her
constitutional and legal right to be protected and not feloniously
victimized by being caused to die.
35. Judge Greer authorized the euthanization of Terri Schiavo by
authorizing the removal of her feeding tube when she does not fit
the definition of PVS under Florida statutes. Euthanasia is illegal
in Florida.
36. Judge Greer has violated the Americans With Disabilities Act
(ADA), 42 U.S.C. Sections 12101 provides that necessary and
appropriate rehabilitation services and physical/motor skill therapy
may not be denied a substantially disabled patient in the United
States of America.
37. Judge Greer has violated the ADA Cf 28 CFR, Ch 1, Subpart B,
Sect 35.130 States "Nothing in the Act or this part authorizes the
representative or guardian of an individual with a disability to
decline food, water, medical treatment, or medical services for that
individual."
38. Judge Greer has violated FS 38.10 four times by not
disqualifying himself from the case when it was requested. The
statute states 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.
The rulings and actions listed above are in violation of Judicial
Canon 3B(2)
Judge Greer has violated Judicial Canon 3B(4) as seen in a video
clip of a court proceeding where Judge Greer was visibly impatient
and angry during court proceedings. The video can be viewed at this
url.

Judge Greer should be investigating whether any life insurance
policies have been purchased or other investments made with funds
intended for Terri, which would cause Michael Schiavo to profit from
her death.
Judge Greer serves on the Committee for Guardianship Monitoring but
is, in fact, violating the intentions and guidelines established by
the Committee. Information concerning the Committee for Guardianship
Monitoring may be found at this url
http://www.flcourts.org/osca/divisions/Guardian/guardianshipmonitorin
g.pdf
1. Judge Greer has neglected the mission of guardianship monitoring
in Terri's case. The mission of guardianship monitoring is to
collect, provide, and evaluate information about the well-being and
property of all persons adjudicated of having a legal incapacity so
that the court can fulfill its legal obligation to protect and
preserve the interests of the ward, and thereby promote confidence
in the judicial process.
2. Page 5 of the document contains "Thus, the court must be
proactive to discover and respond to disputes and issues." Judge
Greer has intentionally ignored disputed issues in Terri's case and
not made any ruling to correct them.
3. On page 6 of the document is this statement "An ideal
guardianship monitoring program encompasses four major service
areas: (1) initial and on-going screening and reviewing of
guardians; (2) reporting on the well-being of the ward; (3)
reporting on the protection of the ward's assets; and (4) case
administration." Judge Greer's flagrant oversight of Michael
Shiavo's violations of the statutes pertaining to guardians is
certainly no example for any monitoring program.
4. It is unclear whether Judge Greer has required Michael Schiavo to
meet all the requirements of a guardian (listed on page 6 of the
document). "A family member guardian is required to hire an
attorney, provide detailed personal information, undergo a credit
check, post a fiduciary's bond, attend an 8-hour training course,
and file detailed initial and annual personal and financial
reports."
5. Pinellas County employees a full time monitoring staff, which
reviews cases to make sure guardianship plans are being filed and
followed. It would not have been possible for them to give approval
of the plan for Terri since the guardianship plans have not been an
important issue with Judge Greer evidenced by his granting Michael
extensions to file the plan. Judge Greer is deliberately undermining
the guardianship monitoring program which was established to make
sure that all wards receive the protection they are entitled to by
the law.
6. Judge Greer did not adhere to the monitoring guidelines which
state that "in cases where it appears there is substantial
likelihood for serious irreparable harm (similar to the injunctive
relief standard), immediate action steps by the court should include
but not be limited to: Filing an abuse, neglect, or exploitation
complaint with the Department of Children and Families, as required
by statute, referral to local law enforcement agencies or the state
attorney and, conducting immediate hearings among several other
possible actions. Terri is at risk of irreparable harm as long as
Michael is her guardian. He didn't want to treat her for an
infection, has not had preventive health care examinations for her
and stated on national television that he would do whatever it takes
to have her feeding tube removed. Michael also stated during the
same interview that Terri's teeth were fine but recently she is
missing several teeth.
Judge Greer's rulings ought to be thrown out due to all these
violations and the Supreme Court ruling on May 18, 2004 that states
may be liable for money damages for denying disabled persons access
to the court.
Terri's feeding tube can only be removed "if" she is PVS and Judge
Greer's ruling is based on a definition not contained in the Florida
Statutes. This is an outrageous liberty which Judge Greer has taken
and combined with the other violations of statutes there is no
question that he should be removed from his duties immediately.
