Podcasts about Family court

    Slam the Gavel Podcast welcomes Diana Alberter, from Pennsylvania to the podcast. Diana is a Grant Writer and Redevelopment Coordinator with a passion for community and youth engagement as well as being an advocate for victims of Parental Alienation.      We discussed everything from Title IV-B, D and E funding, extortion, foster care and the prison system. Kids for cash, parents for cash, it's ongoing and disgusting. Trauma and abuse go hand. Healing has to begin with the individual who is suffering and wants to receive help.     The holidays are the worst for everybody going through the court system and Parental Alienation, even when surrounded by family it's hard to stay out of the, 'woe is me.' Perhaps it is best to speak to family and friends who, "get it," who they themselves understand the inner-workings of the court system and Parental Alienation.  Any parent that tries to alienate the loving parent from their child is emotionally sick and whomever they marry that genuinely takes pleasure in  ruining the relationship with the fit, loving parent is also emotionally sick.    We discussed handling the stress of the holidays and that there is hope, as Claudia Ovalles just passed HB 969 in Texas for accountability when it comes to Custodial Interference. Times are changing, even if it takes time. "Stay strong, do things that will take care of you mentally and physically, pray, send positive vibes for your alienated child and know that they know that you love them," Diana stated.

Genesis Women's Shelter & Support is often called upon to provide expert witness testimony in domestic violence cases. To better understand the role of the expert witness and how they can help facilitate an understanding of domestic violence for legal teams, judges, and jurors, Ruth Guerreiro, LCSW and Genesis' Chief Clinical Officer, and Jordyn Lawson, LPC and Genesis' Chief Residential Officer, join the conversation in an episode that is both educational and enlightening. In this episode, our guests explain how they navigate the labyrinth of legal proceedings, illuminating the cornerstones of domestic violence dynamics and the significant role the expert witness plays in providing context and education to the courtroom. They also prepare us for the complexities of this process - from the questions attorneys may pose to the delicate task of determining which testimony bears relevance. We also dive into the impacts of domestic violence on children and the disheartening reasons why victims often refrain from participating in court hearings. We dig into the contrasting roles of fact and expert witnesses, learn how they can support victims by providing crucial insights to the court, and how their consultation can guide attorneys through the murky waters of domestic violence cases. We expose the tactics used by defendants and the strategies that can empower victims to have their voices heard in the courtroom. Lastly, we delve into how the expert testimony of our guests is used by juries, how it influences the sentencing hearing, and how it can help untangle the manipulative narratives spun by defense attorneys. Join us, as we unravel the intricacies of domestic violence cases and understand the true context and dynamics of abuse with expert insight that brings to light the importance of educating the court on the often misunderstood dynamics of domestic violence.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes Brett LeClair back to the podcast. Brett was last on May 23, 2023, Season 4, Episode 98, where he discussed the dysfunction within his family that had affected his case in Family Court. "The people we are supposed to turn to for help in times of need were not there," Brett stated. Brett explained how his family turned on him and took sides, but not his side.     Today, Brett was happy to update his case that never should have started to begin with. But now his case is over and he has his daughter full-time, along with a home five minutes away from her school. Brett discussed that she has to regain trust and asks him every time he drops her off, will he be there to pick her up after. Brett continues to reassure her especially after the two years of Family Court, where his own Mother wrote a disparaging letter about Brett and sent it to the judge's chambers. The judge shrugged it off.      Brett also explained that in his case, there were four different caseworkers involved and an investigator. They lied to the judge telling him they had weekly visits (that weren't happening), then got promoted. Brett also learned that apparently DHS caseworkers and  court-appointed attorneys meet at a hotel for a "convention," doing who knows what, staying for ONE WEEK at taxpayer's expense. This is a system set up where a parent is designed to lose.     "My daughter means the world to me and saved my life, so the least I can do is save hers," Brett said. Brett said that his last caseworker was the one who got things moving forward and helpful and stated that this shouldn't have happened in the first place.     "They want us to keep quiet and that's the last thing you want to do," explains Brett.To Reach Brett LeClair: brett.a.leclair@gmail.comThis episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes The Honorable Mary Elizabeth Bullock to the podcast. Judge Bullock is also the author of "Judging Me."  She has written an exciting memoir that describes a very hard-won life of achievement. Even facing extreme and overwhelming adversity, Judge Bullock, who not only is blind and has been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and Systemic Lupus, made a name for herself as an experienced trial litigator, honored business law professor and Federal Civil Rights Judge.      We had a very in-depth conversation regarding fraud upon the court and the corruption of foster care. The US is 3rd on the list of CHILD MORBIDITY in the world. Judge Mary talked about that these children will one day be our leaders. Fraud upon the court is a huge issue. The person trying to get total control of the child will LIE because they will get more money from the better parent. These are people that are WILLING to LIE. Judge Mary spoke of a case regarding lies. Judge Mary talked about how judges make decisions based on the evidence before them.  If an Atty lied, the judge has to question this and differentiate the lies from the truth.     There is no statute of limitations on Fraud Upon The Court. Once a person sees it, it must be pointed out. A Certified trauma Victim Witness Advocate not only in child abuse but in marriages as well, Judge Bullock states that people need to know when they have been manipulated. "Without the true facts, you will lose," Judge Mary states.     Judge Mary Bullock explained how she herself wrote a decision and was told to change her decision after major surgery. She refused to go down to the federal building seven hours after surgery which she refused to do, "'No' is a complete sentence." Judge Mary Bullock's bravery sheds much encouragement and inspiration to everyone exposing the corruption.To Reach Judge Mary Elizabeth Bullock: 310-810-6080   This episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

Maryann Petri - Dismantling Family Court CorruptionNovember 8While struggling under the oppression of the family court system and guiding others through similar adversity, Maryann Petri found that times of desperation can lead to joyfulness. During these moments, all she knew was to stay busy. Dealing with anxiety and depression, Maryann found herself confronting fear and anxiousness through writing poetry and riding horses. Maryann's first book, Dismantling Family Court Corruption: Why Taking The Kids Was Not Enough, contains many of the poems she wrote while going through this adversity. They have proven to be so valuable to those reading her book for wisdom and guidance, that she was asked to publish a collection of her poetry, which is Cry Out For Justice: Poems of Truth.In order to help others further, Maryann also started a podcast titled SLAM THE GAVEL where guests share their experiences, wisdom and expertise in navigating the corruption of our court systems. It is available on most podcast platforms including Apple, Spotify, and iHeart.Book PodcastThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

Today I'm honored to introduce to you: Family Court survivor and whistleblower, devoted and loving father of 3, tireless anti-child abuse, Family Court Reform, former lawyer, and survivor advocate and champion, truth warrior, and someone I'm lucky to call a friend - Brad Conley!It's been a long time coming to have Brad on the show! I met Brad on Twitter a couple years ago through mutual friends in the survivor community and immediately, he became a massive advocate for ‘The Imagination'! Come to find out that wasn't the only thing he was advocating for. Having been wrongfully accused for crimes he didn't commit in the corrupt Family Court system like you've heard many times on this podcast, Brad has spent years raising awareness of corruption in family court, advocating for other parents who have also received unjust treatment in Family Court, and shining a light on his own story which involves wrongful accusations from his ex-wife that he never committed, yet has been penalized for. As Brad has continued to weave together the tapestry of what has transpired since his divorce, his story twists and turns through the formidable landscapes of Southern California and into places like Hollywood and questionable universities like UC Irvine. Aside from having his own massive puzzle to piece together, Brad is also a tireless advocate for the survivor community - continually lifting up and elevating the voices of survivors, advocates and parents alike while taking his knowledge and helping others piece together their own puzzles. Brad has been a massive support system for ‘The Imagination' and I can honestly say that this show wouldn't be what it is today without his ongoing encouragement, enthusiasm to connect with, validate, and elevate each guest, and his willingness to listen to each episode and help connect dots for other parents and survivors who are also on the battlefield daily. Brad carries a heavy story of his own on his shoulders and yet he is so selfless with sharing the testimonies of others, that I actually had no idea he was also a witness and a survivor until quite a while after I began engaging with him online. His advocacy work is selfless and has been a tremendous help with getting stories of survivors heard and circulated further. Brad is one of the few fathers I have met that are on the Family Court battlefield and with all the advocacy work he does for others, it's time we rally around him and elevate his voice and story the same way he does for every survivor and whistleblower. Before I finish introducing today's guest - I wanted to give a reminder that if you are a survivor or whistleblower who wants to share your story on the podcast or wants to share any information privately with me, you can now email me at IMAGINEABETTERWORLD2020@GMAIL.COM! I'd also love your support on Substack where I'm taking up journaling as an outlet for me personally to reflect on the podcast, guests, and my advocacy work and you can Subscribe to me at www.emmakatherine.substack.com   All of my social media links are in the shownotes and I can't thank all of you for your courage to shine a light on the darkness with me and each guest!CONNECT WITH BRAD: Twitter: @realsarahvernon - RQ (Brad)

   Slam the Gavel welcomes Robert Tanguay to the podcast.  We discussed his case of false allegations of Domestic Violence, where now he can't see his kids and Robert hasn't seen his kids in over a year due to Custodial Interference. He explained how his ex began to have an affair with a police officer, and the relationship did not work out.      We discussed what former Judge Andrew Napolitano/ St. Augustine had coined, "Libido Dominant, the lust for domination," or lust for power over others. However, this was compared to the Judiciary and other alphabet soup corporations that continue to rip families apart instead working to keep them together.    Also discussed was the Domestic Violence Shelters and where exactly does the funding go. So much discussed on this podcast as Robert explained that when mothers get their children taken away, it's usually because the father is well connected.      So much information in this podcast to be noted.

In this episode we explore the intricate dynamics of family courts with Dr. Bandy Lee. Dr. Lee, an expert in violence hailing from Yale School of Medicine and Yale Law School, as well as the current president of the World Mental Health Coalition, delves into the tactics used by domestic violence offenders within the legal system and the profound consequences these actions have on family courts.Family courts, which are meant to be havens of justice and protection, can unfortunately turn into challenging battlegrounds for victims of domestic abuse. In many cases, abusive partners, predominantly fathers, exploit these systems to manipulate and distance their victims, typically mothers, from their children. This manipulation perpetuates a cycle of power and control that can have severe mental, emotional, and financial consequences. Dr. Lee's insights provide a sobering perspective on the unhealthy patterns that can emerge within these courtrooms.Our discussion doesn't end at the courtroom doors. We will also shed light on the often-overlooked issue of reunification camps and the questionable practices that occur within them. Through an in-depth exploration of the Catherine Kassenhoff case, we aim to uncover the underlying problems within these institutions. As we wrap up our conversation, we will explore potential solutions to rectify these injustices and offer a preview of Dr. Lee's forthcoming book on the family court crisis.The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the speaker(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of any entities they represent.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes back Joan Kloth-Zanard back to the podcast. Joan was last on Season 4, Episodes 6,52 and 72.  Joan has a Masters Magna Cum Laude in Marriage and Family Therapy, a BS in Health and Psychology with a Minor in Business which includes extensive training and certification in Reunification Therapy and work with children. Joan has also been a Guardian Ad Litem and Certified as a Recovery Support Specialist in ABI.      Joan is an author of numerous articles and publications including two books. Her first book, "Where Did I Go Wrong? How Did I Miss The Signs? Dealing with Hostile Parenting and Parental Alienation," is now in its second edition.    We discussed Joan's latest article, "Who's The Parent? When a parent claims they cannot get a child to visit or go to therapy with the other parent." Joan explained the issues of Family Court and how the child is "parentified" and "adultified." How can a child make an adult decision when their brains aren't fully developed? A good parent would have a more respectful child that listens to them and respects parents wishes, such as doing their chores. When a parent can't control their child they are making their own problems and don't have to listen to authority and then parent themselves. Authority must be reversed so the child doesn't have the authority. Parents in custodial fights claim they can't  get their child to  go to therapy/visitation -- "if you can't get your child to do these things clearly the parent is having issues in having authority and are parentifying the child. The child will then have no respect for figures of authority," Joan states. Even the therapists are encouraging the child to control the parent.    Joan and I discussed the wealth of information that is on YouTube, such as The Law Center with Attorney G Lawrence DeMarco as well as other issues facing the family courts.To Reach Joan Kloth-Zanard:  pasintervention@gmail.com (or aol.com)This episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

Kathryn and guest Jane Spinak, a Columbia Law School professor, discuss the issues with the U.S. court system's handling of child delinquencies. Jane argues that the system causes more harm than good, often exacerbating issues rather than resolving them. She believes the approach towards these cases should be shifted from courts to supporting communities, to provide more beneficial outcomes for families and children. Jane also calls for the abolition of family courts as they fail to address underlying problems like poverty and structural inequality. She encourages a focus on listening to and aligning with impacted communities for a more supportive system.    Highlights The understanding of advocacy as advocating for a family, not just a child or parent The lack of effectiveness of the court in solving issues that stem from structural inequalities Keeping supports as much as possible within communities and examples of effective approaches Addressing potential criticisms of the abolition proposal in regards to the reporting system Acknowledgement that sometimes intervention and court proceedings are necessary for serious cases Jane's abolitionist mindset, advocating for reforms that dismantle the court, not strengthen it The detention of extremely young children, not understanding the meaning behind their punishment Adopting the international standard of 14 years for criminal responsibility The need for supportive assistance for children and their parents instead of legal punishment Why punitive measures should be ended Proposed abolitionist agenda and that the courts should only come into play when a legal proceeding is necessary but should not attempt to solve social problems    Episode Resources https://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/jane-m-spinak https://www.amazon.com/Jane-M-Spinak/e/B0CBZFWG4J/ref=zg_bsnr_g_10777_bl_sccl_19/000-0000000-0000000  Episode Sponsored By https://www.lexisnexis.com/lexisplus  Subscribe, Share and Review To get the next episode subscribe with your favorite podcast player.

When a parent claims they cannot get a child to visit or go to therapy with the other parent." Joan explained the issues of Family Court and how the child is "parentified" and "adultified." How can a child make an adult decision when their brains aren't fully developed? A good parent would have a more respectful child that listens to them and respects parents wishes, such as doing their chores. When a parent can't control their child they are making their own problems and don't have to listen to authority and then parent themselves. Authority must be reversed so the child doesn't have the authority. Parents in custodial fights claim they can't  get their child to  go to therapy/visitation -- "if you can't get your child to do these things clearly the parent is having issues in having authority and are parentifying the child. The child will then have no respect for figures of authority," Joan states. Even the therapists are encouraging the child to control the parent.    Joan and I discussed the wealth of information that is on YouTube, such as The Law Center with Attorney G Lawrence DeMarco as well as other issues facing the family courts.To Reach Joan Kloth-Zanard:  pasintervention@gmail.com (or aol.com)This episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

November is Family Court Awareness Month. My friend and colleague, Tina Swithin, has dedicated the month of November to educating people about the family court system: how corrupt it can be, how unfair it is, and how uneducated most people in the family law system are about domestic violence. Tina was a guest on my podcast a few years back to share the truths about the family court system. If you fear you may end up in the family court system, you must listen to this episode. It will help you understand what family court is designed to do and enable you to prepare yourself to battle within the court system, which is not designed to protect you.  Listen to hear (or re-hear) this incredible conversation about family court awareness.    Featured topics include: Family Court Awareness Month is an opportunity for survivors to raise awareness at a community level.  The family court system is abusive. How we can come together to increase awareness.  The disconnect between family court and other judicial systems. There is no regulation or checks and balances. Very few states have required trauma-informed or domestic violence training for family court judges.  We examine how judges become appointed family law judges.  What you can expect when advocating for yourself in the family court system.  Learn more about Tina Swithin: Tina Swithin survived a “Category Five Divorce Hurricane” while acting as her own attorney in a high-conflict custody battle that turned her family's life upside down for over a decade.  Known for her internationally recognized blog, “One Mom's Battle” and her book series, “Divorcing a Narcissist,” Tina helps survivors to navigate the family court system against narcissists and other toxic individuals. In 2020, Tina launched two major projects: The High Conflict Divorce Coach Certification Program and a nationwide campaign, Family Court Awareness Month.   The mission at Family Court Awareness Month is to raise awareness and shine a spotlight on one of the most important branches of our judicial system; the family court system. The very system that was established to govern family law cases and make decisions that are “in the best interest” of children, has some undeniable shortcomings that warrant conversations, solutions and ultimately, change.   The mission at Family Court Awareness Month is fueled by the desire for a family court system that is trauma-informed and educated on domestic violence, coercive control and post separation abuse. To truly act in the best interest of children, our family court system needs to incorporate empirical data and research into their decisions and rulings.  Resources & Links: Links and information may also be found at: kateanthony.com/podcast/episode-241-family-court-awareness-month-with-tina-swithin/ Pre-order Kate's book “The D Word” and Grab Your Bonuses!Domestic Violence Training: Bridging the Gap in Divorce Law with Kate Anthony on The Divorce and Beyond Podcast #318 Family Court AwarenessOne Mom's BattleTina on FacebookTina on InstagramTina on LinkedIn TODAY'S EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY: SOBERLINK Proof.

What does it take to be successful in family court against your narcissistic ex when you have to represent yourself?  If financial abuse has made it impossible for you to afford an attorney or if you have chosen to go pro se after a bad experience with an attorney, what can you do to stack the odds in your favor?On this episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast Lisa Johnson with Been There Got Out shares her story of years of litigation against a narcissistic ex partner where she has had success while representing herself.  She shares some of her top tips when going pro se (or even if you have an attorney representing you) and some of the things that she wished she had known before starting this process.We also discuss the importance of having education and support as you go through what may be one of the most difficult experiences in your life and how community with safe people is paramount on this journey.  Lisa Johnson is the co-founder of Been There Got Out, a high conflict divorce coach and certified domestic violence advocate who has successfully represented herself through scores of court appearances. Her case, published in the Connecticut Law Journal, is being used as legal precedent. Her live testimony helped pass Jennifers' Law in Connecticut, the third state in America to expand its legal definition of domestic violence to include “coercive control.”  She and her partner, Chris, the male half of Been There Got Out, coach people in high-conflict relationships, divorce, custody battles, and co-parenting hell so they have the chance of the best outcome in family court and beyond. They also offer a weekly Legal Abuse Support Group for those dealing with narcissistic opponents in legal matters.

A case that beggars belief. How does a detective cope with such a scene, and complete an investigation when having to take it all in? On September 2nd, 2001, a father murdered his three children. Jackson, six years old, Taylah, 11 months, and Mikaylah, 11 weeks. Still to this day, police don't have a motive. But what did the investigation look like, and how does a detective cope? Former Detective Carla Tomadini is an example of exceptional police work, and someone who deserves the recognition she's received. Now lecturing at Charles Sturt University, Carla spent nearly two decades in the police before moving into the DPP as a solicitor.  Her career is immense, and one host Brent Sanders goes through in intricate detail.  If this content affected you, the number for Lifeline is 13 11 14. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But the judge can ignore an ADA Advocate as well.

Joining us briefly was Phillip Simon who was last on the podcast Season 5, Episode 17. We discussed the corrupt Family Court system in San Diego, California and those involved entertaining the deceit.   Apparently Karielee and Phillip had the same judge, Sharon L. Kalemkiariam who is nicknamed, "The Closer." So if your case is running a lengthy amount of time, even if she is out of her jurisdiction, she flat out doesn't care.  We also talked about Judge Michael T. Smyth who is very guarded about letting there be recordings in the Family Courtroom although they run continuously in Small Claims Court.    Karielee discussed what parents go through as they have to pay $500.00/per hour for a Court Reporter, $2-3,000.00 for the transcript and $700.00/per hour for an attorney only to not receive justice.      This was a highly informative podcast on the goings on in San Diego, that brags about caring for the vulnerable.

Yes, you all the champagne room following the main show. Enjoy, and see y'all live again Tuesday!   As the Boomer Generation hits retirement age, we're looking at a 68 trillion dollar transfer of wealth to the younger generation. THE GUARDIANS is a revealing investigative documentary set in Las Vegas, Nevada that exposes allegations of corruption within the Nevada Guardianship and Family Court systems involving the legal kidnapping of elderly people. The film shines a light on a lucrative business that drains seniors' life-savings and robs them of their freedoms. Victims and their families are caught in a scheme that has allowed corrupt court-appointed guardians to take total control over their healthcare and financial decisions. Armed with court-orders obtained under dubious circumstances, guardians are able to forcibly remove elderly wards from their homes, isolate them from their families and systematically empty their bank accounts.   In an unfolding saga that reaches to the top level of government, a growing number of Las Vegas victims come together to seek justice, restitution and freedom. Through their fight, the film exposes the scope of the systemic abuse of some of the most vulnerable members of our society.   As our aging population is about to record the largest transfer of wealth in history, we must protect them and their families from those that have been using a broken system to take advantage.   For 40 years nothing and no one has stood in their way.

This week we talk with Jane Spinak, author of The End of Family Court: How Abolishing the Court Brings Justice to Children and Families. Jane is a Clinical Professor of Law Emerita at Columbia Law School, where she directed clinical programs in family regulation for forty years. In this episode, Jane traces her journey from working to reform the family court system to advocating for its abolishment. She tells us about the history of the family court system, which was created to be benevolent toward families, but harshly punishes parents and children. Jane's book lays out the case for abolishing family court completely, and replacing it with programs designed to truly support families rather than surveilling and policing them. Support the show

What if the very institution meant to protect you, weaponizes and silences you instead? This disturbing question lies at the heart of our conversation with renowned Professor Emeritus, social worker, and author Evan Stark. Evan's staggering and transformative research exposes the damaging impact of coercive control on children, and how this abuse often stems from a terroristic pattern within households.Evan elaborates on the terrifying power play in which children become pawns, mirroring the tyranny suffered by women. His research unveils the chilling reality that domestic violence provides the most prevalent context for child abuse. We navigate through the insidious control mechanisms, the resulting intimidation, and the profound long-term effects on the victims. Evan also reveals how child welfare systems and children-serving systems were forced to adapt in response to his ground-breaking findings.Towards the end, we steer the conversation towards the crippling influence of coercive control on the legal system. Evan shares cases where children were manipulated and forced into silence, and the abuser often remained unseen by both child welfare experts and medical professionals. Yet there is hope. We highlight examples of countries - such as Scotland that are working to create secure environments for women and children around the world including naming coercive control as a crime.

Diane & Rick report on a recent court hearing they attended, in which the judge admonished the parties to never come back to the court, if they knew what was best for the children. Diane questions what that really means. Is that possible? What if you have no choice? How can judges have so much power to affect the lives of innocent parties who really don't want to be in front of a judge? They discuss an initiative to get citizens in courtrooms and invite judges who may be listening to come on and explain some of this nonsense!CLICK HERE to offer help to the Right to Peace Foundation.

However, veteran Phillip Simon also has sustained injuries from those efforts that have left him permanently disabled and suffering with PTSD, 100%. PHILLIP DOES NOT HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD.     There was a "Kick Out" order issued on 7-29-2021 on his ex-wife and her sister who already had Temporary DVRO's against them. However, on 8-3-2021 The San Diego County Superior Court FAMILY LAW DIVISION allowed the two women to move back into Phillip's home just five days after kicking them out despite his attorney's objections. This shows DIRECT PROOF that the SDCSC acted with BIAS and PREJUDICE against THIS VETERAN from then on EVER SINCE.      The San Diego County Superior Court (SDCSC) continues to be prejudice and bias against all of Phillip's attempts to find a redress to end his unnecessarily high divorce conflict case. SDCSC made the VETERAN'S house the NUMBER ONE issue needing to be addressed in the divorce dissolution. For almost THREE YEARS, the SDCSC have fought against Phillip keeping his case, house and/or property FALSELY within their jurisdiction when it has clearly been proven by federal law, statue and official court transcripts that it is not.     Phillip Simon has filed an action in the United States District Court, Southern District of California (USDC, SDC), against the Superior Court: Simon v. Superior Court of California, County of San Diego, Case No. 23-CV-00889 for Fraud Upon the Court.     Evidence Phillip is seeking within the family law case has been denied to him per his public records request because of the current federal lawsuit pending, officially making the SDCSC an adversary against Phillip. The SDCSC (trial judges) refuses to acknowledge any awareness of the pending federal case and continues to exact revenge and punishment against Phillip while the federal case is still pending. An immediate injunction is needed because the SDCSC (Family Law Division) has ruled against a long standing federally protected statute and now rules Phillip's DISABILITIES are NOW considered COMMUNITY PROPERTY. The SDCSC is using this time to continue to violate Phillip's CIVIL RIGHTS in hopes to take his house away (leaving the veteran BANKRUPT AND HOMELESS) before the USDC, SDC responds to the pending FRAUD UPON the COURT CASE.To Reach Phillip Simon: phillipsimon56@gmail.comThis episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

Please do not show up to court with your narcissistic ex-partner thinking that because what you say is true, a judge will believe you.In order to prevent the judge from thinking this is just a “he said, she said” game you need a strong documentation strategy in place.  And because it is likely you have experienced trauma at the hands of your abusive ex-partner you may not show up in a credible way to those who do not understand.In this episode, I go over some of the different types of documentation that you need to have prepared including:Financial documentationDocumentation based on the factors of a child's best interestDocumentation based on the factors a judge is looking for to determine parental allocation of decision-makingSome basic tips for documentation for family court include:Documenting in a separate journal/planner/spreadsheetHaving as much documentation time-stampedUse of a co-parenting messenger appUse of a “vault” for evidence to be court-admissibleMarking emails/messages as important so that you don't have to go back and searchChoosing your battlesPredicting your ex's behaviors and perceived winsIf you want more support on how to document including ways to document based on how our minds take in information and ways to make this less than a full-time job, join us for our low-cost documentation workshop on Friday, Nov 3, 2023.Documentation Workshop.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes Melissa Vagle to the podcast. She is a mother with three children. Melissa served in the Army National Guard for almost six years when she met her second husband while she was still a soldier.  At 22 years of age when they met there were the red flags that went unrecognized prior to their marriage that lasted 20 years.    Going through a grueling three year divorce, Melissa has had the same judge preside over it. Melissa had to rethink her future soon after her mother died in August 2019 and decided to file for divorce when her ex-husband stated not only to Melissa, but to the children as well, that her mother, "deserved it."    Wanting to learn more about the system, Melissa wanted to help others with their cases, so she became a Notary Public and then a Certified Paralegal with the goal to be an ADVOCATE in these areas.    Two of her children have special needs and her other child has mental health issues. Melissa states that going through her long divorce and now SEPARATION ABUSE has shown her so much.   Homeschooling her children for eleven years has forced Melissa to become good at researching. Her own personal experience in having to deal with abuse before, during and after marriage/divorce has afforded her the opportunity to help strangers that have now become her friends.    Melissa encourages others to, "ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT, and ask your friends their thoughts on an incident that has occurred in your new relationship to see what their take on it is so you can catch an odd behavior early on and when a new person in your life begins to blame you for something, it usually means they are doing something."To Reach Melissa Vagle:  Facebook: Melissa Vagle, TikTok: @mysterymom3 and  ShapChat: MissyBlonde MomThis episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

“I'm not sure I can make it through this.” If you are experiencing post-separation abuse after leaving your narcissistic partner, especially through the family court system it is likely that this thought has run through your head.So, what can you do to get through your family court battle with your mental health and your children's mental health intact?I am speaking with a friend, advocate, and survivor today on what has helped her through this process and how she is making big waves in her community to improve the family court process for survivors.  We touch on documentation, how to get the right form of support, identifying what is inside and outside of our control, and some mindset shifts that helped her become empowered during this experience.Joanna writes:In March of 2019, after an incident involving police and the removal of guns from my marital home, I began a journey that no one expects to be on. I became a client at the local domestic violence shelter - Safe Futures in Southeastern Connecticut. I filed for the dissolution of my marriage and obtained a restraining order. I also became a plaintiff in the civil family court system.While my civil family court exposure is ongoing, I have decided to be a part of the solution as opposed to simply complaining about the injustices I see. Because of this, I am a founding member of the VOICES Committee for The Center for Safe Futures. I am on the Advisory Board of the Connecticut Protective Moms Non-Profit. I have been certified as a DV Crisis Counselor. I am a Girl Scout leader. And I've written my first book, a memoir, which I hope to be published by 2025.Register HERE for the Journey Back to You RetreatFree Mini Guide to Decrease Your Child's Anxiety Around Visits Where to find more from Rising Beyond:https://www.risingbeyondpc.com/ https://www.instagram.com/risingbeyondpc/ https://www.facebook.com/risingbeyondpowerandcontrol https://www.linkedin.com/in/sybil-cummin-lpc-acs-50537791/ https://www.pinterest.com/RisingBeyondPC Our FREE Download a Roadmap to Communicating with your Narcissistic Ex https://www.risingbeyondpc.com/free.html

     Slam the Gavel welcomes Joslyn Wolfe  to the podcast.

Parental Alienation as demonstrated in the case with the eldest daughter, Joslyn has concerns and is never notified of any medical emergency visits or doctors appointments.      Joslyn is a Graduate of Goucher College, and attended The Johns Hopkins University. She is also a Global Goodwill Ambassador.

Divorcing a PERSONALITY DISORDER is not easy to do. Joslyn gave great advice regarding how to handle specific situations and if you hire a lawyer that you feel is not working for you, fire them, you will be better off in the long run, even if it is at mid-trial.    "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster.  And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."  by Friedrich NietzscheTo Reach Joslyn Wolfe: www.focusonwomenmagazine.net (also on Facebook and LinkedIn) 410-630-1224This episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

Carrie Tuggle and her husband, John, moved to Birmingham in 1883 in search of better work opportunities and social life. They threw themselves into work and growing their family. They both actively participated in the Knights of Pythias, a national fraternal organization. Carrie was a social worker and would see young boys in the court system being sent to prison with adults.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes back Supreme Court Attorney, T. Matthew Phillips. Attorney Phillips was last on the podcast Season 3, Episodes 137 and 152. We discussed this brilliant, unique and one- of-a-kind CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT that is including ELEVEN families.     The named Defendant is the Judicial Council of California, which is the policy making body that trains judges. The Plaintiffs are arguing that there is no Constitution in the California state court system, particularly in the "Family Court." They don't recognize that the Constitution exists and yet the Constitution  is supposed to be the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND. The judges and  the Attorneys are not arguing the Constitution.     Attorney Phillip's Clients are arguing that Parenting is a fundamental right and Constitutional right that is protected under the 14th Amendment. They believe the judges in California NEED TO BE TRAINED in this and need to know and understand that PARENTING is a FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT. They can't take away custody and parenting time unless a parent is actually found UNFIT with ACTUAL EVIDENCE found in a fitness hearing not in a divorce proceeding.      The parents contend that they are having their FIRST and FOURTEENTH AMENDMENTS violated. In the FIRST AMENDMENT, it protects FAMILIAL ASSOCIATION, the right to association and private speech. The FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT, protects the RIGHT TO PARENT. However, parents are being ROBBED of PRIVATE SPEECH with their children, especially in SUPERVISED VISITS. The GOVERNMENT is in control and LISTENING and it's a HUGE  VIOLATION of the  FIRST AMENDMENT right to familial association.     Parents involved in custodial rights are getting their children taken away based on standards that fall below the minimum Constitutional standard. Once the CONSTITUTIONAL STANDARD drops below the minimum, they believe the federal government should get involved to protect these federally protected civil rights.    This is a different lawsuit as they are not suing judges; they are suing the Judicial Council. The judges are not recognizing the Constitutional Parameter and the judges are just exercising arbitrary discretion.....To Reach T.

Running for PA Supreme Court, Carolyn Carluccio joins Dawn to expand on her reasoning behind the campaign, her career to this point, and how to coninue to make an impact in Montgomery County & PA as a whole. Carolyn faces off against Democrat Dan McCaffery.  The first female President Judge in the history of the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas, Carolyn Carluccio will bring unrivaled experience and a fresh perspective to Pennsylvania's highest court. Since being elected in 2009, Judge Carluccio has demonstrated proven temperament, fairness, and impartiality in the 1000+ cases that she has presided over. She will be a strong defender of the Constitution, apply the law as it is written, and restore balance and trust to our judicial branch. Carolyn Carluccio grew up in a hardworking family of first-generation Italian immigrants and proud Irish Catholics with strong ethics and values. Although her family started their own small business, she went on to blaze her own trail in the legal community, starting her career as a Federal Assistant United States Attorney prosecuting large-scale drug dealers, bank robbers, and money launderers. Her work earned her recognition from the United States Secret Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. Judge Carluccio served as the first-ever female Chief Public Defender for Montgomery County where she managed a team of 35 staff and attorneys. Additionally, she served as the first woman Chief Deputy Solicitor for the County and as the Acting Director of Human Resources. As a Court of Common Pleas Judge, Carolyn Carluccio served with distinction on the Family, Criminal, and Civil Court benches for the past 14 years. Presiding over her first case in Family Court, Carolyn Carluccio knew she was in the right place. Faced with a difficult decision, the correct path was crystal clear on how to make the family that stood before her whole. It is cases like this that continue to fuel Judge Carluccio's passion to serve her county and the Commonwealth as Judge.

An episode answering all of your questions that you've submitted on tik Tok. We talk all things family court, custody, restraining orders and more with Carina Reyna.

Since I started making this podcast, I've told the stories of a number of children that have involved the failures of the family court system. So many names pop into my head when I think about it: Thomas Valva. Nakota Kelly. Averylee Hobbs. James Biel. Corey Micciolo. Since 2008, over 900 American children have died at the hands of a parent or guardian after involvement with the family court system, which punishes parents – especially mothers – for reporting domestic or child abuse.Ohio mom Sara Moore, who lost custody of both of her boys for that exact reason, has had enough. Earlier this year, Sara pledged to walk a total of 936 miles from Columbus to the White House and back, one mile for each of the 936 who lost their lives due to mistakes made by the family court system. This is the story of an embattled mother who will never stop fighting for her children and the quest she's undertaken to draw attention to the epidemic of family court-related child deaths in this country.This is the inspiring story of 936 Miles for Mercy.Links discussed in this episode: Angels' Voices Silenced No More: https://angelsvoicesnm.org Protect Kids from Family Court: https://www.facebook.com/events/s/protect-kids-from-family-court/1539696220169930/ Sara's GoFundMe campaign: https://www.gofundme.com/f/protect-kids-from-family-court-936milesformercy Center for Judicial Excellence: https://centerforjudicialexcellence.org/ The Saunders study: https://barrygoldstein.net/component/tags/tag/the-saunders-studyUN Special Rapporteur Reem Alsalem's United Nations (UN) report on custody and violence against women and children: https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2023/06/urgent-reforms-needed-protect-women-and-children-violence-custody-battles-un The Meier study: https://xyonline.net/sites/xyonline.net/files/2020-05/Meier%2C%20U.S.%20child%20custody%20outcomes%20in%20cases%20involving%20parental%20alienation%20and%20abuse%20allegations%202020.pdf CDC page on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs): https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/aces/index.html Avett Ray on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2GRjyu6I8E355bDOvv6h8h?si=WhfBBI1WTUqw-2UoRbvE9Q Avett Ray on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEFFl4jVhSQLx-r-08kYtng Avett Ray on Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/avett-ray/1661435060 Avett Ray on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/avettray/ Avett Ray on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/avettray/ This episode is brought to you by Factor.
