~~ WARNING ~~: Family Court Can Cause Serious Risks To Your Health
”The Americans with Disabilities Act acknowledges that our (U.S.A.) Judicial System can and does cause Traumatic Stress in those who seek civilized fair due process of law and redress of grievances.”
Lucrative divorce industry stands between divorced/separated parents and kids
The reason we don’t have shared parenting is because it’s a big business. Family law attorneys make too much money off the years of legal fighting, and the state bar associations help their own keep their greedy claws controlling the system by lobbying state legislatures to oppose shared parenting bills.
There is significant research showing that Shared Parentingis best for kids. There are over three dozen medical studies which indicate that shared parenting arrangements – joint decision-making and near-equal parenting time – provide the best outcomes for children. The studies also reveal that parenting time of every other weekend, commonly ordered by judges, is harmful to children.

A Father's Nightmare ~ Hold Judges Gone Wild Accountable!!
Has a judge violated your constitutional rights?
Have you been discriminated against by being treated differently than other people in similar situations by reason of race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual preference or political opinion?
Have you lost certain rights without a meaningful hearing or even an opportunity to be heard?
Have you been deprived of any other constitutional protection? Have you been subject to Court action for the purpose of intimidating you from exercising an opinion, or practicing your faith?
Don't let them get away with it!
Although it is almost impossible to recover monetary damages from a judge (unless you can prove he or she acted ultra-vires beyond his or her legal jurisdiction) it is in fact possible to obtain relief in equity against a judge through civil rights actions. Equitable relief includes:
declaratory relief - (rulings by another judge in the form of opinions establishing the constitutionality or lack of constitutionality of another judges actions.) injunctive relief - a command or order to do something or refrain from doing so.

Protect MEN, WOMEN, and CHILDREN against PATERNITY FRAUD
Women Against Paternity Fraud
Petitioning Congress
Paternity Fraud is a national epidemic. This occurs when the truth as to who the biological father of a child isn't disclosed. There are no requirements when applying for welfare or child support to truthfully disclose who the "true" father is. In marital situations, the husband is "presumed" to be the father of a child born to his wife, even when DNA proves he is not. Everyday, men sign in-hospital "paternity acknowledgment forms" even when DNA testing has not been done.
Unfortunately, children who suffer from numerous hereditary illnesses will continue to be misdiagnosed due to inaccurate reporting of their paternal medical history. They are the "true" victims in paternity fraud and deserve to know who their biological father is, their medical history, heritage, inheritance rights, and extended family.
To avoid devastation within families and to make sure that every child has an inalienable right to know the identity of both biological parents, we propose that Congress adopts a federal statute that no paternity establishment is final unless a DNA test proves who the biological father is.
Because... Paternity is important to YOU and to Children!!

Gender Biases In Child Support
Joe Cordell Discusses Gender Biases In Child Support
October 8, 2015
Cordell & Cordell Principal Partner Joe Cordell recently appeared on 700WLW AM-Cincinnati to discuss many of the flaws of the modern child-support system.
Mr. Cordell spoke at length about how the system is punitive and leaves many fathers who are unable to pay child support, rather than unwilling, in a difficult position.
For example, a guy could find himself unemployed with no way to make his child support payments. But just because he is out of a job doesn’t mean those payments pause until he finds work.
The result is a modern-day debtors prison.
Mr. Cordell noted that when a mother doesn’t receive child support, she has a legion of state, federal and local officials as well as private groups to call on to help enforce her right to support. That isn’t the case when fathers are denied access to their children.“If a guy is unemployed, the court has the power to say, ‘Well look, we think that you should be employed and we think you can get a meaningful job so you should go to jail as a result of being behind in support,'” Mr. Cordell said.
“The guy has to assemble thousands of dollars from income that incidentally he doesn’t have because of the child support,” Mr. Cordell said. “He has to assemble his own funds to go into court and battle for over a year, perhaps, his denial of visitation. So many guys just walk away. It’s not practical for them to enforce their rights of visitation.”

Invisible Victims of Domestic Violence
Male Victims of Domestic Violence
Often Unseen, Not Believed
October 29, 2015 by Robert Franklin, Esq, Member, National Board of Directors, National Parents Organization
This is a good article on an important topic – domestic violence (Yahoo, 10/26/15). It’s not without its flaws, but overall, it’s a good effort by author Jenna Birch to communicate some of the basics to a large audience. Domestic violence is important to family court issues because it’s often raised there as a tactic to gain an advantage in a child custody case. In the past, countless family lawyers have admitted the use of domestic violence allegations in family courts for precisely that reason.
Birch’s main point is that men and women equally are victims of domestic violence.
Yet in 2010, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released data from its National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey — and one of the most shocking statistics wasn’t just the sheer total of victims of physical violence but also how those numbers broke down by gender.According to the CDC’s statistics — estimates based on more than 18,000 telephone-survey responses in the United States — roughly 5,365,000 men had been victims of intimate partner physical violence in the previous 12 months, compared with 4,741,000 women. By the study’s definition, physical violence includes slapping, pushing, and shoving.More severe threats like being beaten, burned, choked, kicked, slammed with a heavy object, or hit with a fist were also tracked. Roughly 40 percent of the victims of severe physical violence were men. The CDC repeated the survey in 2011, the results of which were published in 2014, and found almost identical numbers — with the percentage of male severe physical violence victims slightly rising.“Reports are also showing a decline of the number of women and an increase in the number of men reporting” abuse, says counselor and psychologist Karla Ivankovich, PhD, an adjunct professor of psychology at the University of Illinois, Springfield.
Of course we’ve known this since the late 1970s. Indeed, the very first broad-based, scientifically reliable survey done for the National Institute of Mental Health in 1976 revealed parity in victimization and perpetration by men and women. Since then, literally hundreds of studies have produced similar data.
Despite the science on DV, public policy took root in the false claims of extremists who insisted that virtually all perpetrators were men and virtually all victims were women. Amazingly, some 40 years later, that public policy is still stuck in that false past. Therefore, in the United States, there are still only two DV shelters for men, (one opened in Florida recently) compared with hundreds for women.
Progress! Finally, there is mention in the media of concerns about Family Courts. Way to go New Jersey. Way to go NJ4Kids/NJ4ParentalEquality.The rest of us can kick it up too. Be seen where your at.

The Invisible Victims
By
October is domestic violence awareness month. In the true spirit of raising public awareness, Shrink4Men,AVoiceForMen and DAHMW (the Domestic Abuse Hotline for Men and Women) would like to shine a spotlight on a group of individuals who comprise approximately half the victims of domestic violence. A group who is afforded very few resources and are typically ignored and/or ridiculed when they speak out about their victimization — often by the very individuals seeking to raise public awareness about the insidious social malady of domestic violence.
Who is this invisible and marginalized group of domestic violence victims pushed to the periphery of public awareness?
Men.
[*If you are already aware about the difficulties male victims of domestic violence face, please scroll to the end of this article to find out how you can help.]
Men are turned away from most domestic violence shelters. Men do not meet eligibility to receive aid from most domestic violence support organizations by virtue of being men, which is nothing short of overt discrimination, sexism and bigotry.
To the best of our knowledge, there are no court advocacy programs for male victims of domestic violence. Men (and their children) are not eligible for state and federal stipends for safe housing from their female abusers. There are no free or subsidized counseling programs nor are there free legal services/legal aid for male victims of domestic violence.
In the United States, there is only one shelter for male victims of domestic violence (the Valley Oasis Shelter in Antelope, CA) out of the approximately 1,800 shelters available to women and their children nationwide. Canada also used to have a domestic violence shelter for men that was run by the late Earl Silverman.

Contact Denial is Child Abuse ~ Name and Shame Your Abuser
This site is for the naming and shaming of contact deniers - parents, solicitors, judges, Cafcass officers, MP’s and any other parties involved in contact denial and the forcible separation of children from their fathers.
It is clear to us that the lack of enforcement of legally binding court orders between children and their fathers is encouraging resident parents to deliberately break the law with impunity, often with the encouragement of their legal representatives. No longer. Where court orders have been breached and where contact has been denied for no good reason, the names of those concerned will be published here along with the names of anyone else involved directly or indirectly with contact denial. Contact denial is a serious human rights violation.
When naming parents, you will need to be in possession of a court order for contact which we may need you to supply. Please note, all content is moderated so there will be a delay before your content appears.

Family Court Judge Deprived Man of Fair Hearing
A Morris County Family Division judge denied a man his right to a fair hearing and inappropriately cut off his
explanations before issuing a final domestic violence restraining order against the man who was accused of
threatening to post intimate videos of his ex-girlfriend on the Internet, a state appeals court ruled Tuesday.
The appellate panel, ruling in a Morris County case captioned C.H. vs. J.S., reversed a final restraining order
issued on July 9, 2014 by Superior Court Judge Philip J. Maenza and ordered that a new hearing be
conducted by another judge.
"Not only was the evidence of record insufficient to support the trial judge's conclusions, but also the
procedures employed at trial deprived defendant of fundamental due process," the appeals court said in its written decision. 
According to the decision. C.H. and J.S. began dating in June 2012 and ended their relationship in October 2013. They resumed their relationship
before breaking up for good in June 2014. The man allegedly sent the woman a series of "six or seven ranting text messages" that called her names
and suggested he would post private videos of the woman on the Internet, the decision said.
The parties were identified only by their initials in the ruling, which also did not state their hometowns.
At the hearing before Maenza, neither the man nor woman was represented by an attorney. The woman generally testified her ex-beau had previously
threatened Internet postings of her and she "wanted to put a stop to it" so she contacted police.
At trial, Maenza asked: "How did this incident about the video affect you?" and "Are you concerned?" The woman responded that she was concerned
because "once something goes on the Internet it doesn't come off the Internet."

Judicial Immunity...No matter how incompetent, negligent, and or malicious
With the Bench Cozied Up to the Bar, the Lawyers Can't Lose
By ADAM LIPTAK
Dennis G. Jacobs, the chief judge of the federal appeals court in New York, is a candid man, and in a speech last year he admitted that he and his colleagues had ''a serious and secret bias.'' Perhaps unthinkingly but quite consistently, he said, judges can be counted on to rule in favor of anything that protects and empowers lawyers. Read more… 777 more words
