April is recognized as National Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of safe, supportive environments for all children. In this episode, we spotlight the NC Guardian ad Litem Program and its vital role in advocating for children involved in the state's foster care system.The episode features conversations with three leaders from the Guardian ad Litem Program:Carolyn Green, Regional AdministratorBrittany McKinney, Staff AttorneyMatthew Wunsche, Appellate CounselTogether, they discuss the urgent need for volunteer child advocates, volunteer attorney advocates, and interns to support the growing need of abused and neglected children in North Carolina's court system."When I came over to Guardian ad Litem I learned that so many children are under the radar while in the court system," said Green on the podcast. "I hope that people will give of their time and make a difference in a life. When you commit until a child gets back to a safe, permanent home, you can't beat that feeling." The episode serves as both a call to action and an informative look into how volunteers can support the best interests of children experiencing abuse, neglect, or abandonment.To learn more about becoming a Guardian ad Litem volunteer or intern, visit volunteerforgal.org.

Slam the Gavel welcomes back Dr. Bandy X. Lee to the podcast. Dr. Lee was last on the podcast Season 4, Episode 23 (1-31-2023). Today we discussed Dr. Bandy Lee's lawsuit with impeachment initiative to bring transparency to the Star Chamber-like family court (Press Release). Family courts are nefariously secretive, like the Star Chamber in England, which had been abolished approximately four centuries ago. Transparency is ESSENTIAL for deterring family court abuses which include judicial bias, witness perjury and CPS/Guardian ad Litem one-sided interviews. Dr. Bandy Lee's lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey challenges the constitutionality of the dark secrecy cloud that hangs over family courts nationwide. The Judge in Dr. Lee's case censored her for writing about family court proceedings, ordering it to be removed from the internet and holding her in contempt under the threat of imprisonment is she should speak or write about the serious health and financial abuses she has professionally witnessed. A PRIOR RESTRAINT IN BLATANT FASHION OF THE VIOLATION OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT. Both Dr. Lee and her constitutionally acclaimed Attorney, Bruce Fein are available to the media.To Reach Bandy Lee: bandylee.com***** Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536 Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.comhttps://ko-fi.com/maryannpetri*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Slam the Gavel welcomes William Danh to the podcast. William has been fighting for his rights to see his daughter for years. His daughter was born in 2012, and didn't even know he had a daughter until 2023 when the mother called him up looking for child support. A paternity test was done. However, the mother, living under various addresses had applied for $20,000 in TANF that was granted. But now that she cannot be located, they are coming after William for the $20,000.00 Despite William's efforts, the courts, Dept. of Child Support Enforcement, CPS and his daughter's Guardian ad Litem have repeatedly ignored his questions. For over a year William has pleaded with them for information on his daughter's whereabouts and safety. They wouldn't answer him. Meanwhile, seven years ago, her mother abandoned her in a home with known drug abuse and neglect. Tragically a four year-old child (daughter's half-brother) was murdered in that home. Article written in WUSA9, "3 Family Members Arrested For Murder of a 4-year-old Boy in Manassas," By Matt Pusatory on January 30th, 2025. It wasn't until after this tragedy that the system finally acknowledged William, but only because they couldn't ignore the huge mess they created. As of now, the whereabouts of the mother is unknown and is not held accountable, CPS continues to ignore William and Dept. of Child Support Enforcement is focusing on the money they think William owes.To Reach William Danh: Danh.w@yahoo.com***** Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536 Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.comhttps://ko-fi.com/maryannpetri*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

This week's guest is Kathy Maresca (Porch Music, Touch Point Press, October 2022) In her debut novel, set in 1950's Gainesville Florida, Kathy utilized stories from her Seminole family history to tap into a story of racial inequities, Southern culture, country music, and religious hypocrisy. Her research included not only books and museums, but also her own memories of working at Six Gun Territory, a local theme park, and absorbing the rhythm of Native American dances. When it came to marketing, her most effective tool turned out to be contests, where she used her awards to publicize her book. Her least effective? A blog tour which failed to correctly target her ideal reader. A native Floridian, Kathy Maresca grew up with a grandmother of Seminole heritage. Kathy served in the Air Force, working at the Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel and then in special operations at Hurlburt Field, Florida. She edited for the University of Florida and taught English, journalism, and drama. While she was teaching, Kathy became ill with trigeminal neuralgia. She then earned a master's degree, became credentialed as a rehabilitation counselor, and served as the Director of Patient Services for the Trigeminal Neurgalgia Association. Kathy recently finished her second novel, Sky Kiss, and is working on a prequel to Porch Music. She has been a Guardian ad Litem and has taught classes for a prison fellowship ministry. Kathy lives in North Carolina with her husband, Keith. They enjoy traveling and spending time with their toy fox terriers. To learn more about Kathy, click here.
Slam the Gavel welcomes Nichole Maroun to the podcast. Nichole had been facing domestic violence and stalking for years. There is no accountability in Family Court and it's one LIE after another. She was not able to afford counsel and she was defending herself in Family Court. One of the factors in Nichole's case was a binding agreement, a prenuptial agreement where the ex was the one who had the prenup drawn up for his own protection, and she would get the marital home mortgage free. However, Judge Theresa Bisenius refused to enter the prenup into evidence and proceeded to give her ex everything he asked for. Nichole did not file an appeal, as she had only 14 days to move out of the home where she had lived for 14.5 years. For the last 3.5 years, Nichole has had NO MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP with her children because Judge Bisenius issued a full - reversal of custody back to her ex and a NO CONTACT ORDER. It took time for the sale of the home, eight months, to get the funds from the sale of the house. She then left the state of Massachusetts as there was less risk of being stalked by her ex. There was a secondary hearing, at which time the judge ordered supervised visitation. Nichole filed a Motion to Reconsider as the visitation was not affordable and there was nothing warranted to have supervised visits.... There is also questionable Guardian ad Litem transcripts, where there are parts in the transcript that are missing. We discussed this in-depth as this is a continued problem within the Family Court.

Paige had been born into a cult led by "Uncle Robert" and was completely under his control. Though skeptical at first, after 20 years of marriage Peter eventually got pulled into the cult mentality as well. When Paige ultimately chose loyalty to Uncle Robert over staying married, it led to a nasty divorce and parental alienation of their children.Peter describes how Uncle Robert used manipulation, paranoia, and ideological indoctrination to gain total control over Paige and eventually himself. Even after Paige filed for divorce, Peter fought hard to save his marriage and protect his kids from her cult delusions. With the help of a guardian ad litem, Peter was granted custody of their minor children. But the divorce process was dragged out through endless frivolous motions from his ex-wife.Key TakeawaysThe role of a Guardian ad Litem in high-conflict custody casesStrategies for dealing with a spouse who files endless frivolous motionsHow to navigate a divorce when your spouse is representing themselves (pro se)The long-term trauma of parental alienationTips for saving money during an expensive divorce processImportance of being the "bigger person" and avoiding conflictQuestions AnsweredHow can you save money when a spouse files endless frivolous motions during divorce?What advice does Peter have for others going through a difficult divorce?How to handle co-parenting with an ex who is manipulative or abusiveAbout PeterPeter Young is an author and former sports broadcaster.

Episode Notes Nina Angela Lee is a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, an international speaker, singer-songwriter, and author of the Amazon bestselling book, "21 Ways to Support Those Who Are Grieving." Nina's losses, her mother's death when she was 12 and her son's passing after a 17-year illness inspired her passion to help others find hope and healing. Apart from her work in grief recovery, Nina has also spent several years being a voice for abused and neglected children as a Guardian ad Litem for the State of Florida. She is the President of Women of Worth (WOW Utah), a nonprofit mentoring program that empowers women to rebuild their lives after surviving traumatic life events. Numerous acts of kindness have blessed my life over the years, and each one has left a beautiful impression on my heart, reminding me that good and compassionate people are out there, spreading love and light wherever they go. Each act of kindness, no matter how small, can create a ripple effect of positivity and make a meaningful impact in someone's life. It can brighten their day, lift their spirits, and restore their faith in humanity. And in a world where negativity and hardship abound, these small gestures of kindness can make all the difference.
Slam the Gavel welcomes Ryan Kolar to the podcast. Ryan's case began with 50/50 shared custody of his then ten year old daughter with a proven ABUSIVE ex-wife. However, when she REMARRIED, his daughter reported molestation from the STEPFATHER while Ryan, a survivor of sexual abuse himself, saw patterns emerging of the grooming of his daughter. Through the well-oiled machinery of the 'family court' system he then LOST CUSTODY 17 months ago after reporting the ABUSE to DCFS. Opposing counsel, the Guardian ad Litem as well as the school system spun a web of deceit, creating a false narrative that the judge ruled a temporary suspension of his parenting rights that still haven't been restored a YEAR after Ryan PROVED his innocence and the COLLUSION is court documents. Ryan explained that this is a systemic corruption issue. Judges have full discretion. They don't have to honor our civil rights. Ryan wanted to understand WHY, but there is no WHY. It was extortion get money out of both parents. The abusive one will defend their reputation with money. The protective parent will fight to death for their children with money. It doesn't explain WHY that lawyers and judges choose to do this to children. There is nothing in the human soul that would make them want to let little children to get molested or worse. We discussed Title IV-D funding and how this contributes and compounds the problem within the 'family court.' They are letting you PROVE the case against the abuser and you are doing your job FOR THEM. The next phase is to erase her father out of her life and destroy his life. The judge is refusing to let him present evidence of molestation by the Stepfather. The GAL is of no help, knowing this ABUSE was happening and did NOTHING. If the judge doesn't rule on anything, then Ryan can't appeal it and get JUSTICE. Parents aren't getting their day in court. The judge would not let witnesses speak in his case. Ryan thoroughly explained his case and how the school also got involved and disturbed evidence. This is such a big case that he cannot get an attorney to take it on. And there is millions to be made. Ryan will be a return guest on Slam the Gavel.To reach Ryan: @keko_coalition on Instagram and donutsandbroccoli.comThis episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

Susan and Judy Wilson I am so excited to bring you this LIVE taping from the Wild Goose Festival. Susan and Judy Wilson lit up the Goose Cast and my heart as they told us a love story for the ages. They shared such courage, such love, and such hope. In these politically charged moments of our lives it was a breath of fresh air to remember that LOVE does not die and as a community we CAN rise up and refuse to go back into the closet! Judy Wilson was born in the aftermath of WWII. Her dad had been a pilot and was in law school. He read case law to her, which she thought forever scarred my life choices. She was a military brat, the eldest of 5, and raised in the Presbyterian Church. Thus, Judy was a rule follower who could successfully negotiate division of an uneven number of cookies among her siblings. When Judy went to college she met Anne, and learned that there was such a thing as sex between women, and beer is pretty good stuff. Judy decided she really wanted to be "normal" so she married a man, actually twice, and had 2 children. Judy met Susan in law school, and decided the heck with that being normal stuff. We were in classes and several organizations together, and fell deeply in love. We became a law school scandal, which was fun. (sarcasm implied.) Thirty years later, we have had an incredible life together. We became very involved in the nonprofit world, starting a Family Visitation Center, where children could safely be exchanged by parents in conflict. We have been on several boards, mostly involving children's issues. I worked as a Guardian ad Litem attorney representing children in abuse and neglect cases. That was an amazing experience that allowed me to argue cases in front of both the NC Court of Appeals and the NC Supreme Court. My last job was with Legal Aid's Senior Law Project advising old folks like myself. Judy is now retired, spending an inordinate amount of time crocheting and buying yarn. We have 9 grandchildren and are actively part of their lives. Although my early church years left me with conflict about my sexual orientation, I have found a home in the Episcopal Church, specifically The Cathedral of All Souls, where we have attended since 1991. I am an usher, volunteer at the church office, and participate in Bible study. Susan Wilson grew up mainly in Atlanta, Georgia and briefly in Germany and Buffalo, NY (which is why she knows- and I quote- “What Hell is like when it freezes over.” Susan has a Masters Degree and a Doctor of Jurisprudence, from the University of Georgia and a Masters in Journalism. Susan and Judy, her now wife were at UGA at the same time getting their Masters Degrees, and yet never met. It wasn't until several years later that they met in law school where they became the local legal community scandal their third year when they fell in love. Susan reports, “We are less a scandal these days than little old ladies in comfortable shoes who are very much still in love and extremely comfortable with each other.” Because of my lovely wife, we have two children and 9 grandchildren. They have lived in the Asheville, NC area since graduating in 1991. Susan has worked for the County trying Child Support, Juvenile abuse, and neglect cases for about a decade before going into a domestic law private practice where she was also a Guardian ad Litem for both children and adults. Susan ceased her domestic law practice in 2013 and switched to Elder Law - mostly Wills, and Powers of Attorney. Much of her Elder Law practice was pro bono through a couple of local legal aid offices. Susan stopped practicing law completely in 2022. For the past 10 years, Susan has worked as an Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Navigator through the Council on Aging of Buncombe County. They provide unbiased free help to people getting insurance through the Marketplace. Since we don't get paid by any insurance company, we can talk to people about all of the insurance options that are available and can help them complete the application correctly to minimize problems. Along the way Susan has been one of the founders of two juvenile restorative justice programs and the Family Visitation Center in Asheville. Susan was also on several boards and served on the Asheville VA institutional review board (IRB) overseeing medical research projects. Susan has always had a deep spiritual connection to the creator. When she was quite young, she told my parents that she played with Jesus up in heaven before she was born, reporting “I established a relationship with the Trinity before I was born.” Susan grew up Methodist and switched to Episcopalian when she fell in love with her now wife, Judy. They journeyed with All Souls (also know as All Sorts) as it explored Human Sexuality and came to accept same sex relationships. Their current Priest is a lesbian so clearly, “we did something right!” Connect with Judy! Judy Wilson on FaceBook Click the link below to: Learn More about The Wild Goose Festival!
In honor of April being recognized as Guardian ad Litem Volunteer Appreciation Month, the April episodes of All Things Judicial highlight the North Carolina Guardian ad Litem program (GAL). In this episode, we interview five attorney advocates who are staff or contractual attorneys in the GAL program. These attorneys are an essential part of a collaborative model, that along with volunteers and staff, ensure that abused or neglected children in North Carolina receive GAL legal advocacy services. GAL Advocacy Supervisor Ruth Griffin moderated the interviews where attorneys shared about their experiences in serving as advocates, ways to improve the system of representing abused and neglected children in court, and how they cope with the sometimes difficult circumstances in their cases."Especially in the courtroom, I always try to make sure that (the chiild's and GAL's) voice is heard," said attorney Vernon Cloud on the podcast. "Letting people know that I represent the child and to contact me first ... is a constant battle."
Separation and divorce can have a significant impact on children's mental health and well-being. Here are some common ways it can affect them: 1. Emotional distress: Children can feel sad, angry, confused, and anxious about their parents' separation or divorce. They may feel like they are losing their family and their sense of security. 2. Academic struggles: Children may have trouble focusing on schoolwork or may experience a decline in grades. This can be due to the stress and emotional turmoil they are experiencing. In this video, I'm talking to Emoni Clemons about the vetting process for men and women. We also talk about the effects of separation and divorce on children (well, the conversation started there). We'll cover topics like the importance of a positive self talk, the different types of vetting, and more. If you're looking for a comprehensive overview of the vetting process, then you'll want to watch this video! Emoni Clemons is passionate on the topic and she'll share her knowledge with you in a way that's easy to understand. After watching this video, you'll be able to make informed decisions about who to trust with your personal information! Hi, my name is Emoni. I am from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School in 2017.

In honor of April being recognized as Child Advocacy Month, the April episodes of All Things Judicial will highlight the North Carolina Guardian ad Litem program (GAL). In today's episode, we interview six child advocate volunteers who serve on the front lines of advocating for abused and neglected children in court. These volunteers are just a few of the over 5,000 North Carolina child advocates who give of their time, energy, and heart to help improve the lives of children and youth. GAL Advocacy Supervisor Ruth Griffin moderated the interviews where volunteers shared about their motivation for serving as advocates, and the process of how they became involved in the program."Anybody can volunteer ... we have such a great need with so many kids in the system that they need someone to stand up for them," said GAL volunteer Loretta on the podcast. "If you are concerned about kids, open up your heart and go see the GAL program in your district and give it a try."
On this episode, we build with Kathy Fehling. Kathy began her career in sales and worked up through management, often becoming the first woman to hold leadership positions in the company's she work for. Then, in the middle of the night, Kathy decided it was time to start her own company. Over the next 20+ years she became an extremely successful executive recruiter – helping multi-billion dollar companies find their next CEO. In this episode, we explore her journey on what it was like to be a woman in a man's world, starting her own company and the trials and tribulations along the way. Towards the end of the episode, we unearth what led her to retirement and what everyone should know about entering that phase of their life.Enjoy!Show NotesBook Rec: Retirement Roots - Robert LauraBook Rec: Ruthless Elimination of Hurry - John Mark ComerCompassion InternationalGuardium ad Litem
Jasmine Cresswell was born in Wales and educated in London, England. Recruited by the Foreign Service, she was assigned to the British Embassy in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While in Rio, she met and married Malcolm Candlish and together they immigrated to the United States where he had been offered a job with Colgate Palmolive at corporate headquarters in New York City. Malcolm's career took him to Australia, Canada and five different American states. Jasmine tagged along with their growing family. They finally settled on the West Coast of Florida where Jasmine, now widowed, is fortunate enough to live close to all four of her children, along with eight of her twelve grandchildren and three great grandchildren. Originally intending to pursue a career in academia, this became impossible due to her frequent long-distance moves. Instead, as a lifelong lover of fiction, Jasmine decided to write a novel since a writing career could be pursued from anywhere in the world. Her first book was published by British publisher Robert Hale in 1978. Her final suspense trilogy was published by Mira Books in 2010. In the thirty intervening years she published more than seventy novels with publishers such as Berkley, Signet, Harlequin and Mira. During her active writing career, Jasmine always sought the companionship and expertise of other writers. An early member of Romance Writers of America, Jasmine was for two years the editor of Romance Writers Report, the monthly journal of the organization. In addition to eight wonderful years as a member of Rocky Mountain Fiction writers, Jasmine and four of her writer friends (including RMFW member Maggie Osborne) founded Novelists, Inc., a national organization for multi-published authors of popular fiction. In retirement, she volunteers as a Guardian ad Litem, enjoys water aerobics, reads voraciously and loves spending time with her family, especially the great grandchildren who are -- of course -- amazing. As RMFW celebrates its 40th years, we are chatting with members who were around at the very beginning and this is one of those conversations.

Litem's takes on one of his favorite movies of the summer. Thor Love and Thunder was such a pleasant surprise that it shocked me. My take on this film, the state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Halloween Horror Night well wishes to all that celebrate, and an update on the Litem Family. Tried to keep the review Spoiler free; not because it's a new movie, but if you find yourself watching it I would like you to enjoy it the same way my son and I did. (Hint he loved it too) "Another classic Litem adventure"
