Dominique's Law/Undeadbeat Dad Law

 

 

 

This Petition is to put in place a law that will protect Fathers with "COURT ORDERED JOINT CUSTODY" to have equal rights as does the Mother. This will also serve as a way to prevent any Judge from Sexual Discrimiation (Such as not hearing both sides with non-prejudice and predetermined ruling without full disclosure of case to be presented). Often in the state of NEW JERSEY, this goes unnoticed, not disputed or no action on the party of the Father's side. This is primarily due to the Mother's having more custody priviledges than that the Fathers solely because the Mothers are usually the ones with Residential Custody. When the Mother doesn't comply with court orders, they are giving several opportunities to get it right. In most cases should the Father not comply, such results are usually the out come, (arrests, warrants, removing of some of his parental rights and possibly permitting Mother to be granted 100% custody). In the New Jersey Family Court system, the Father is not permitted to be the PLAINTIFF. This in itself is already a violation and clearly discriminating. 

 

Yes, the number of Deadbeat Dads do outway the number of Mothers that have custody of their children. However, that is not a constitutional reason for ignoring the minority that does what is required morally, legally or financially. Many Fathers are fearful of the consequences that my arrive should they persue joint custody of their child/children. This must stop and stop now. Their are a great deal of women not raising their kids and they are being raised by grandparents, aunts, uncles and other family members. Those Mothers do not received the same legal reprecutions for their neglect to support financially to the extent the Fathers are. 

 

Many good Fathers that pay their child support and spend quality time with their child/children still have no rights to speak up or out in New Jersey Family Court. This should not be the case. A Fathers Criminal record should not have any bearing on him having joint custody with say so in his childs health and well being, unless there is history of sexual abuse, domestic violence or physical child abuse towards his child or it is proven that he is Mentally Unstable to make rational decision. And this should be determined by an outside entity aside from the New Jersey Family Court so that they have not ability to influence the Examiner. 

 

There are few, but as any Minority Group, in the United State of America. Minorities are to be recognized and not discriminated against. And clearly in the New Jersey Family Court system fails to comply. 

 

I am a single father, that has raised 5 out of my 6 children, that I adopted single handedly. My other child I have joint custody with my Ex-Wife. However, my one childe that remains in her care was hurt, placed in harms way on several occasions. I have not been able to see her for over 2months and the courts say its ok. When attempting to modify the court order or request emergency temporary custody to get my child the care and assistance she needs that Mom has not followed through on since this traggic event. I appeared before the judge and he gave me 3 minutes to explain what was the emergency. However, gave mom all the time she needed to explain why I'm such a bad person. Not explaining anything regarding my childs safety and the list of State officials that gave their names and numbers for the judge to call to confirm. The judge listened to her and said. "Mom's statement seems credable" so, he saw no reason to enforce anything or grant me temporary custody to have my child checked by a doctor. Told me if I have a problem with it, file again. This has become expenseive, and why should I have to pay court doc fees thave the courts enforce an order they have issued several times. 

 

FATHERS, IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AS A FATHER WITH OR SEEKING JOINT CUSTODY, PLEASE STAND WITH ME AND WALK, STAND, SIGN AND PROTEST THESE ACTIONS BASED ON THE NEW JERSEY FAMILY COURT PREDETERMINED OPINION OF US AS ALL DEADBEATS. IT IS MORE EVIDENT TIME AFTER TIME. MANY OF YOU HAVE PAID CHILDSUPPORT ORDERS AND HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH AND/OR TAKING CARE OF YOUR CHILD ALREADY. NO WORKING MOTHERS CAN ASK FOR MORE CHILDSUPPORT AND ARENT REQUIRED TO GET A JOB TO DO THEIR PERCENTAGE, MOST OF THE TIME USING CHILDSUPPORT AS JUSTIFICATION FOR NOT ALLOWING PARENTING TIME. THE COURTS WILL RUN ALL KINDS OF CHECKS ON THE FATHER TO FIND WHERE HE IS WORKING IF HE IS WORKING. HOWEVER, WILL NOT CHECK ON MOM FOR ANY REASON WHEN SHE DOESNT COMPLY WITH THE COURT ORDER. THE LAWS FOR NEW JERSEY ARE NEW JERSEY'S LAWS AND SHOULD APPLY EQUALLY TO MOTHERS AND FATHERS. 

 

THIS STATE HAS NOT AND WILL NOT ALLOW ME AND MANY OTHER FATHERS TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM SOME OF THESE MOTHERS. THERE IS A LARGE POPULATION OF UNDIAGNOSED Bi-Polar, Schezophrena, Post-Partum and Mentally Ill mothers in this state alone. THIS IS SERIOUS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. IF THE COURT IS ABOUT FAMILY THEN WHERE IS THE FAMILY IN ONLY MOM HAS SAY SO. IF THIS ISNT ADDRESS AND RECTIFIED SOON, THE NAME OF THE COURT SHOULD BE CHANGED TO MOTHERS HAVE SAY SO OVER THE JUDGE FAMILY COURT
