Retired Justice Sees Fla. Court Acting by Wednesday By Carol Giacomo TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (Reuters) - Florida's Supreme Court can be expected to move expeditiously in the high-stakes legal dispute over presidential balloting, likely ruling within 48 hours, the court's former chief judge said on Sunday. Justice Ben F. Overton told Reuters in a telephone interview that death penalty cases have prepared the seven-member court well for the pressure. Such appeals are considered after a death warrant has been signed by the governor. ``The court is not unaccustomed to having to move in an expedited or fast-track manner,'' said the jurist, who retired in 1999 after 25 years on the bench. ``They have to move expeditiously in those cases, and they do,'' said Overton.
