The State needs to start educating the public so they understand that when 2 consenting adults create a child together, they not only agree to co-parent with the State but that they surrender power to the State to make unilateral decisions that will determine the course of the child's entire life and that the person making those decisions arent going to spend more than 5 minutes contemplating them. Had I known this prior to conceiving a child, under no circumstance would I have done so in the State of Michigan and I urge everyone who plans to conceive a child or who is expecting a new born child to do their research and get out of this State before it is too late because once they sink their hooks in, you and your kid are screwed for life and theres no escape.

What happens during the initial hearing if the movant doesn't meet the burden of proof? Because the FCC instead of ending things assigned a GAL. And much ignoring of the law by the FCC

[@GaryWilliamowski]

Friend of the court makes a percentage of the money so does the courts. And visitation is base on child support mother have custody that means more money for her and the state

[@jenniferthom]

I kept bringing up the statutes and was ignored.

[@roberts735]

Can you touch on; constitutional rights, equal protection rights, due process, quasi criminal, separation of powers, supremacy clause….

[@SpeakerLawFirm]

Yes, we are going to have a webinar on constitutional rights in family law cases in the next season (starts Nov 2023)

[@cathycoryell2351]

Most likely defaults to State's Rights. The USA is fundamental built on States having ability to have different laws governing them. Family law included. What applies in Michigan, will be different in NY, or CA or PA, etc. Esp. In child supoort calculations. All States will say, if you can't work it out with the other parent, then yeah, the state will drive key decisions like education, housing, medical care decisions. It's hard to accept. Good luck.

I drafted and was granted a motion for reconsideration in my divorce and child custody case. Question- why are abused parties allowed to drop charges. The issue with dropping charges must and demands psychological intervention and a stay. Thank you.

[@blazebrown9102]

Can you speak regarding a Bias GAL that does not submit supporting documents for Guardianship of a handicapped adult family member?

[@TheHolliHolland]

What documents? 😄 I never got a report. One wasn't provided in court either.

[@blazebrown9102]

​​@@TheHolliHolland Are you saying the GAL did not submit supportive documents in what he stated in court? You can request a report from the attorney handling the case or the Court system and use the case number to identify what you're looking for.

[@melisataghon3007]

They are the judge! Why do I need to educate them???

[@conceptobject]

Because they only have 3 years of education.

[@GaryWilliamowski]

You lawyer know child support is not law its all commercial contracts .

[@candyvarvel]

I was told my daughter was given to her father (not married in Ohio) due to my military service. (Dual military) Is that even legal? I was her primary care provider. I was not active duty, just National Guard so i was only going to be away for my training.

[@torrinjohn]

I bet your don't share the same legal coaching to pro se defendant...

[@torrinjohn]

Why don't you follow the federal rules set out in the green book under section 8? Calling this person a judge in this matter is a lie!

[@GaryWilliamowski]

Nothing but office water cooler talk because all state use no fault divorce act . The need the mother to say he hit me get a order of protection on him then she can get the children because she asking the court for the children until the divorce then the judge will say she had them for two years. Best interest they use what such Bull shit
