Nope, here it is:

826.01 Bigamy; punishment.--Whoever, having a husband or wife living, marries another person shall, except in the cases mentioned in s. 826.02, be guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.

Try this one:
798.01 Living in open adultery.--Whoever lives in an open state of adultery shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083. Where either of the parties living in an open state of adultery is married, both parties so living shall be deemed to be guilty of the offense provided for in this section.

Or this one:

798.02 Lewd and lascivious behavior.--If any man and woman, not being married to each other, lewdly and lasciviously associate and cohabit together, or if any man or woman, married or unmarried, engages in open and gross lewdness and lascivious behavior, they shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.

798.01

Looks like Judge Greer is ignoring this little detail in his continuation of Schiavo's guardianship. Doesn't matter if it seems "quaint", to use a Gonzales-ism. He's gone down the rigid line of using the law whenever it means she dies.

Interesting that he isn't so hardline when it comes to this rather material, criminal behavior on Big Mike's part.

Come to think of it, why couldn't the governor (or anyone else, for that matter) sign a complaint against Mikey right now for? The idea that a guy being walked away in handcuffs is a legitimate "guardian" for the arguable victim of this crime would seem rather strange. Which is, of course, the point.

So he IS guilty of a misdemeanor. What do those numbers mean regarding the type of punishment?
