No basis for such a frivolous suit. Judges have judicial immunity and Michael didn't kill her. Wrongful death requires negligence on the part of the defendant. If anything, Michael has the legal basis to sue on behalf of Terri against her parents for their negligence that led to her pvs. Had they knowingly ignored her condition, they could be liable for the resulting death. In addition, he could sue them for attorney's fees in these obvious frivolous appeals and also for libelous statements that he abused her without merit.
If I was them, I'd spend their golden years enjoying life and celebrating Terri's memories. There are families who could only dream of getting a speck of attention for their own personal cases.
