Family Court Oversight Committee ~ Everyday People

1. Family Court Judges are not accountable to anyone for the decisions they make each day which profoundly affect the lives of so many people. They are accountable only to the Supreme Court in each State, and because of something called, "Judicial Discretion", the Family Court Appeal rate is dismally low, indicating that their fellow Judiciary is unable or unwilling to hold their colleagues accountable.

2. All Families do NOT belong together. For examples, families involving domestic abuse, mental, physical, or sexual abuse do NOT belong together. Meaning, the court should NOT require that an abuser maintain or begin a relationship between a child and a parent who they have abused EITHER the other parent OR the child or another child in the family. Parents who have been victimized by the other parent should NOT be required to be "friendly" regarding inviting visitation by the other parent and children of the abused parent should not be required to have an ongoing relationship with a parent who has abused them or their protective parent. Parents who have been victimized by the other parent should NOT be penalized for being a "protective" parent in any way.

3. All Family Court Judges must be held PERSONALLY and PROFESSIONALLY accountable for their decisions. Children and victimized vulnerable adults must be able to hold Judges accountable for injuries sustained as a result of their decisions for monetary damages through Civil Court and right to a jury trial; WITH NO TIME LIMITS or STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS!

4. To provide litigants or victims of the Family Court, each State NEEDS TO develop a Family Court Oversight Committee in each County, hereafter referred to as the "Committee". This Committee must be comprised of a balance of average citizens WITH RESIDENCY IN the specific County, and selected as if for Jury Duty. Employers must be mandated by law to agree to the employees' absence while serving on the Committee and to hold their job until they have finished serving their term of two years. No attorneys, doctors, priests, counselors, court employees or sub-contractors, personal investigators, current or formerly accused violent perpetrators or those receiving income from the above listed persons are allowed to serve on any Committee in any State or County, but Committees are allowed to consult such professionals in order to render their decisions. These consultations are to be paid for by Committee funds, which will come as a deduction from all Family Court budgets and will also pay the Committee Members.

5. Committee decisions must follow National and Local Family Court Laws AND TO CREATE NEW ONES, THAT BENEFIT AND PROTECT BOTH ADULT AND CHILD VICTIMS AND PROTECTIVE PARENTS and promote the committee's creation and functions, with the committee being primarily responsible for the safety of all victims. Committee Decisions may overrule Family Court decisions and State Supreme Court appeals regarding custody and the Best interest of the Child. The first and highest priority of all Committees is to protect and to preserve the relationship between the victimized parent and children. Committees are obligated to recommend and provide for family counseling to each victimized family group to facilitate healing and recovery from any illnesses sustained in part or in full by the batterer.

6. Committee Decisions may overrule Criminal Court Decisions in by County, or Cities, Municipalities or places within the County, including stiffer sentencing to batterers.   

7. All Committees will be accountable for their decisions to the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges or http://www.ncjfcj.org/ and will consult with this organization along with experts recommended by http://www.courageouskids.net/ and http://www.batteredmotherscustodyconference.org/ to ensure accountability and consistency.

We the undersigned:
We have only a short time left! Please hear the voices of those who can not speak. Please hear the American and United States Citizens who have been thrown under the bus to keep their cries of pain and terror silenced under the roar of political engines. Please hear and experience the pain, the agony, the legalized familial torture as if it were your own, because it is. Fathers, protect your daughters and grandchildren against men who hate women and their children. Mothers protect your daughters, as no one else can. American people of red, purple, white, black, yellow, brown and blue colors unite to protect your neighbors who do not have a voice, because someone is still standing on their throat. To end the violence that corrodes our society, that we carry forth each day into new generations, we must first end the violence which begins in our homes. This requires the removal of the unwritten law which infiltrates, dominates and rules precedent in our family courts. No longer support the law of wives and children as property of their male family members with your silent acceptance, your knowing glance in the other direction. Create safety. Create freedom in your own country where millions within its borders are not free but slaves to courts and their magistrates and officers, many of whom batter their own families. Sign this petition and give the voiceless a voice. Endorse this petition. Add your comments and your own ideas. Give the captives the opportunity for freedom for the first time in these years since 1776. If NOT YOU then WHO? YOU ARE their hope. YOU are their chance at survival. Thank you for your time and thoughtful endorsement!
