Divorce is getting hairier. Just ask the family pet. https://t.co/lMmfztFxei I once had a dog custody case. I ordered the parties to bring the dog to court to certain his preferences but also ordered the parties to each visit the animal shelter prior to the hearing.
I was privileged to speak to the Wisconsin Association of Treatment Court Professionals about procedural fairness. Courts get better outcomes when litigants are listened to, treated with respect and understand the judge’s order.

Even Nancy Mace condemned this promptly. Trump claimed Congresswoman Omar may have staged this and Congressman Emmer is silent. Political violence is unacceptable.
I don’t care if you agree or disagree with Ilhan Omar.
