THE REMEDIES:

The Equal Parenting Party urges the public to support legislation to enact a shared Parenting law for fit parents.

Such a law would reduce the profit motive in our Court system, advance Equal Protection and Due Process of law for litigants and bring fairness and happiness for those who need it most, our children.

We urge our State lawmakers to pass a law placing a cap on legal fee in the amount of $25,000.00 absent extraordinary circumstances. Such a cap in legal fees will, without doubt, speed up the time cases take to finish by taking away the greed motivating the Court system.

Another necessary change in our law will bring accountability to and respect to our good Judges and have such care and respect given by our Judges to our citizens. Thus, the Equal Parenting Party urges the legislature to remove all legal immunity from Judges and allow them to be accountable for instances of intentional wrongdoing and gross negligence.

THE PROBLEM:

Parental Alienation is often facilitated by the intervention of our Matrimonial Courts. The current state of our law enables Divorce Court Judges to order the removal of one parent from their children unless they comply and pay for the forced delivery of commercial mental health services, parenting coordinators, case managers and more.

One example involves the Nassau County "Model Custody Part" Judge. This Judge is Hon. Robert Ross. Judge Robert Ross helped found a private organization of new, unregulated "professionals" called parenting coordinators. The organization is called the Parenting Coordinators Association of New York.

These private parent coordinators are exclusively chosen by this Judge, their huge fees set by, payments schedules made by and collection overseen by this Judge. Litigants may face jail or the loss of their children if they do not pay up over time, $5,000.00, $10,000.00 and more.

This Judge also freely uses his power to force unnecessary, involuntary private mental health services on healthy litigants. Litigants are required to pay huge fees to only those "mental health service providers" approved by this Judge. The excuse used for such human rights abuses placed upon our citizens and our children who desire the love of two parents is that these Court ordered requirements are in "the best interests of children."
