I get that you're interested in the details, but as a layperson I understand that if a court makes a preliminary decision and later reverses it that's still called a reversal and the term is not restricted to appeals. Is that incorrect?Quote:

You and altaslob should get a room and sort this out.Quote:

Such reasoning breeds contempt for the law and the court.
Judge Howard ordered the hospital to give the drug. I haven't seen his order so maybe he addressed this issue but hospitals cannot prescribe or administer drugs; doctors on staff of a hospital prescribe drugs and nurses administer them. Both doctors and nurses are licensed practitioners subject to professional discipline for violating the standard of care. Can the court order individual doctors and nurses to provide certain care. Apparently in this case the hospital must have found a doctor and a nurse willing to give the Ivermectin. I certainly would have refused.
The correct ruling in the first hearing would have been for Judge Howard to deny the injunction on the grounds that the court has no business determining the standard of medical care or telling doctors and nurses how to practice medicine. No presentation of evidence by the hospital would have been necessary for the judge to have ruled this way. (This is different than the situation where a court orders a transfusion for a minor child of Jehovah's Witnesses; in this case the court is not ruling on the standard of care but on the right of parents to withhold live saving care from their minor child.)
We have reached a point where every dispute is ultimately settled in court. I do not believe that the rule of law requires this, I do not believe that the framers of the Constitution intended this, and I believe that justice and the rule of law would best be served if judges more often demurred in situations in which they have no proper role to play. In Bush v Gore the SCOTUS intervened in a case in which it had no jurisdiction; the matter was properly before the Florida Supreme Court and used tortured reasoning to deny a recount that almost certainly would have made Gore President.. In 2020 the Court stayed out of the election, to its credit. Would that Judge Howard had exercised the same restraint.
I knew it wouldn't go well when I mentioned to my anti-vaxxer friend that I believed my 90yo mother survived Covid with little more than flu like symptoms because she was vaxxed. Sure enough she claims to have lost 4 family members (one just the other day!) to "the shot" because this vax is not like any other.
There is nothing to say to her so I won't try. She even sent me a graph showing 16K deaths from the vax so far this year.
I can think of a few things to say.
The second judge addressed this issue too, writing the plaintiff could have switched hospitals without involving the court:Quote:

What is more, based upon the testimony, Jeff Smith is capable of being safely and medically appropriately moved to a hospital where Dr. Wagshul has privileges. If continued use of ivermectin under Dr. Wagshul's treatment regimen is desired, Plaintiff has this as an available option without the need of intervention by a court.
Can I just say how much I hate the way things have become among people? Seems like no one believes anything anymore or believes whatever they dream up and everyone is angry. Myself included.
Little did we know God is technology seeing and recording everything everyone does and carrying out me too types of justice and reckoning. Satan is the internet and technology luring unsuspecting naive people in to doing dumb and sometimes evil things...Quote:

The internet had def. been a double edged sword and I'd like to amend my statement by saying I'm more sad than angry. Such troubling times for which I see very little light anymore.Quote:

Follow the money.
It wouldn't be so bad if they weren't also extremely heavily armed. That's why they're so bold now. The guns give them courage to act like assholes everywhere to everyone..Quote:

We may disagree with various outcomes, but law is law.
