Why Is Bribery Law Unenforced In Florida?

In Florida Law bribery of a sitting judge is illegal and yet Judge Greer received repeated bribes in the form of awards why he was sitting on the case of Terri Schiavo. Now I do not know if all of the awards he received are linked to his findings on the case of Terri Schiavo but some certainly are.

I have just learned that the Clearwater Bar has twice honored Judge Greer with the John U. Baird award due to his performance in the Terri Schiavo case. The St. Petersburg Bar Association also awarded him during the Terri Schiavo trial:

The Clearwater Bar Association twice honored him with the John U. Bird Distinguished Jurist Award, in 2001 and in 2004, in part for his work on the Schiavo case. The St. Petersburg Bar Association gave him its Judicial Appreciation Award in 2004

According to my secondary source Judge Greer has been overturned 21 of 29 times by the Second District Court of Appeals of Florida. It makes it seem like awards are given out to even incompetent judges in Florida.

As long as Florida allows judges to be bribed by law associations then there will be no true rule of law in Florida.
