'I represent the extremes of what can happen to women in divorce courts'
That's why I advocate for others.

I have never before today heard a judge repeatedly tell people to get their transcripts and file them for their divorce cases.

[Run Rood @RunRood]

@chiccrimechaser It still stands out that they never changed the name, 'Back of the Yards' to something else.
Perhaps they should have considered it.

Blood buttons, anyone?

[Run Rood @RunRood]

School board presidents write about "budget challenges" and the need for more funding, whilst their districts mishandle FOIA and FERPA requests.

You do NOT have a funding crisis if you are manufacturing liability with both hands. You have a governance crisis.

Stop crying.

Shrewd as serpents. Innocent as doves.
Not contradiction.

The top tier of forensic custody evaluators are not competent in the areas they claim to practice.
It's systematic incompetence, it's ruining lives, and it needs to be abolished.

@mikevolpe Np. Thank you.

[Run Rood @RunRood]

Disclosures are made.
Concerns are documented.

Then the GAL reframes the danger, and the court follows the GAL.

That is not child protection.
That is institutional laundering.

Family court has a GAL problem.

Our public schools are a problem.

BUSTED: Dr. Kimberly Melman-Orozco takes the podium to call out local officials for allegedly spending millions in taxpayer dollars on attorney’s fees to conceal systemic violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the IDEA. This is how it’s done.

Temporary orders don't become valid because the docket kept moving.

A new judge doesn't inherit a clean slate.

The gaps come with the case. And at some point, the court has to decide what to do with a record that cannot support the weight being placed on it.

[Run Rood @RunRood]

A domestic relations judgment must rest on a traceable judicial act reflected in the record. Recitals, attorney assertions, emails, and post hoc characterizations cannot substitute for notice, lawful entry, or reviewable record support. #FamilyCourt

[Run Rood @RunRood]

Cook Co Domestic Relations- governing procedural principles are basic but non-negotiable: notice, opportunity to be heard, neutral judicial officer, a record sufficient to show what court actually did.
A judgment cannot supply a missing proceeding by merely reciting one occurred.

[Run Rood @RunRood]

A child-placement order is a judicial act.

Not a filing. Not a scheduling agreement. Not a substitution of counsel.

When the record cannot show that a judge actually reviewed the decision, the order has a problem the attorneys in the case cannot fix.

Only the court can.

[Run Rood @RunRood]

A temporary child-placement order that is never reviewed doesn't stay temporary.

It becomes permanent by neglect.

That is not a technicality. That is a due process failure.

"My children are homeschooled."

"Aren't you worried that they won't be socialized?!"

This is a really, really stupid objection, and a backwards one to boot.

Flip the question. What type of socialization do kids typically get in government schools?

- widespread bullying
- drugs and alcohol abuse
- disrespect
- sexual promiscuity
- vulgarity and lewdness
- violence
- theft
- rebelliousness
- cliques and outcasts
- conformity
- authoritarianism
- mediocrity
- boredom
- indoctrination

In our various homeschool groups, these things are all effectively non-existent.

They're being socialized in positive ways, developing curiosity, servant leadership, peer support, passion-driven learning, good character, etc
