Are your children for sale? Isn’t that “the law” as we truly know it in America’s divorce and family courts?
As a mom or dad you go in believing that legitimate lawyers and judges are looking out for your children’s so-called “best interests.” At least that’s what they tell you before examining all your mandatory financial disclosures. Then they plot just how long they can keep two parents fighting over their children for profit. We like to think not all are doing it, but how can you ever know when this gold mine is so easy to access?
It’s a barbaric process reminiscent of a Roman Coliseum, and there is no accountability for the malpractice or misconduct. The foxes are watching the chicken coup, like the ethics lawyers in the witch hunt against Leon who were fired for falsifying their time sheets. These are the standard-bearers of lawyer ethics who oversee billing practices that swallow up entire college funds and life savings. Yet unlike others who steal from government, no public charges, ethical or criminal, were ever lodged.
Hard to believe? Look it up in Albany Times Union, July 2013 (Chief Counsel Peter Torncello, Steven Zayas, etc.). Leon’s custody judge was removed from the bench for admitting to sexual misconduct on his handicapped, five year old niece (Bryan Hedges). Two New York Supreme Court judges, Gerald Garson and Thomas Spargowere sent to federal prison for seeking bribes to fix divorce and custody cases. One did it while facing misconduct charges and the other got early release due to colleague references.
Shamelessly, when the lawyer you hire gets done abusing you, he or she is likely to blame the client for the court’s dysfunction, the emotions they needlessly inflame and the costly outcome to your families. And don’t forget the former lawyer on the bench who knows “the game” (according to New York Family Judge Daniel King, per court transcript of January 15, 2014). The power they are abusing today exceeds that of the NSA, IRS and CIA. They exploit your children to get away with this, and an unsuspecting public goes along.
Well like so many model parents sucked in by this government propaganda, Dr. Leon Koziol was unfortunate to end up with an ex-spouse named Kelly Hawse-Koziol. She engaged herself in an evil scheme to replace the birth father with a millionaire, childless substitute named Joseph Flihan of New Hartford, New York. When Leon outright rejected her offer in exchange for an end to so-called “child support,” (as any loving father would), she plotted to destroy his career, and worse, his relationships with his daughters.
All of Hawse-Koziol’s offense petitions since 2006 were dismissed, only one went to trial but required no defense. Her latest one, a protection (gag) order on this website, was dismissed last month on the eve of trial after a mandamus order was signed in New York Supreme Court which challenged it. Hawse-Koziol actually claimed in court documents that she transmitted notice of child relocation to Flihan’s home under e-mail “gmai.com” (“l” character missing) unlike all monthly notices before and after. That’s like testifying that she successfully mailed a letter from a trash can outside the post office. But Family Judge Daniel King accepted her lies. After that, under pressure, he disqualified himself from all litigation, but by then the damage was done. His free speech retaliations were complete.
Of course, a Social Studies teacher at Frankfort-Schuyler Central School had no ability to achieve her evil agenda. But when Leon began seeking recourse and reforms through proper channels, the beneficiaries of this lucrative enterprise joined the gang assault which resulted. Sure we could give you the “rambling” details of a ten year saga, but that would only incur more orchestrated sanctions and outright fabrications, i.e. judge findings of a PhD and Masters degree never obtained and nowhere in any court record to elevate Leon’s support obligations. Hey we’re serious. It actually occurred and has yet to be corrected.
Consequently a parental rights leader in New York City is seeking to lead a protest in Utica to the Joseph Flihan Restaurant Supply Company on Broad Street. Its purpose is to send a message that pots and pans can be sold but not our children. This corrupt family court system must be dismantled. Too many unsuspecting victims, especially our innocent children, learn too late how this system actually operates. If you are from the Utica-Rome area, you already know Leon’s conscientious stand on your behalf, his sacrifices and the continuing witch hunt against him. So you need to join up. Call (315) 380-3420 to register.
Now is the time for more Family Court Judges
New York's most vulnerable children and families depend on the Family Court system to address some of the most important decisions of their lives. Current limited resources create a backlog that has led to long delays for families, victims of violence and children, effectively closing the doors to justice for those who need it the most.
The New York State Coalition for More Family Court Judges has come together to ensure that New York State provides for more resources for Family Courts, including at least 20 more Family Court Judges statewide to provide justice for families. The Coalition will advocate for the approval of the Judiciary's budget request and amending the Family Court Act to add more Family Court Judges will help provide more timely access to justice for New York's children and families.
