March 4 - - As NRL News goes to press, there are a host of developments rapidly unfolding in the Terri Schindler-Schiavo case. For up-to-the-moment information, go to www.nrlc.org.

At press time, David Gibbs, the lawyer for Terri's parents, continues to file motions with Pinellas Circuit Court Judge George Greer. In a ruling handed down February 25, Greer set March 18 as the expiration date for the stay that prevents Terri's husband, Michael Schiavo, from disconnecting the feeding tube through which Terri receives her food and fluids.

"The court is no longer comfortable granting stays simply upon the filings of new motions," Greer wrote. "There will always be 'new' issues." Characteristically, he said that three weeks gave "respondents ample time to appeal."

If the tube is disconnected, Terri will die of starvation and dehydration, a hideous death that can take up to two weeks. Terri's tube has twice been removed but later reinserted.

Gibbs is pulling out all the stops on behalf of Bob and Mary Schindler.

The Schindlers have asked Greer to allow Terri to divorce Michael Schiavo.

"We have filed divorce proceedings because of [Michael Schiavo's] total disregard for Terri as his wife," Bob Schindler said at a February 27 rally in Jacksonville, Florida the Associated Press (AP) reported. "He is married to Terri, but he is living with another woman and he has two children by her. It has become quite obvious that his priorities are not in Terri's best interest."
