Judge denies latest Schiavo request
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A federal judge refused Friday to order the reinsertion of Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube, another in a string of defeats for the parents of the brain-damaged woman in their battle against her husband to keep her alive.
For a second time, U.S. District Judge James Whittemore ruled against the parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, who had asked him to grant their emergency request to restore her feeding tube while he considers a lawsuit they filed.
Hours after the decision, the Schindlers appealed again to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta to review Whittemore’s ruling. The Atlanta court refused before to overturn a previous Whittemore ruling.
