Keith Docking's Petition re Australia's Family Court... Identical to all other Family Courts! He has been abused by the court...and others The COURT of CORRUPTION (this Petition is my view) The FAMILY COURT of AUSTRALIA Ideally, the Family Court should be abolished. THERE IS A BETTER WAY! Many of the comments raised in the media re a Banking Royal Commission and October's (2016) revelation into Nauru, can be directly applied to the Family Court. The Family Court regime and its affiliates, and agents, deliberately ignore guidelines, lie, and abuse Children and Australians, leading to the self-harm and suicide by many, mostly men. Mandatory reporting of child abuse by those who should doesn't work or occur, if only because the regime itself is guilty of this. Judges can be narcissists and bullies, and for far too long have been operating in a cosy modus operandi with known lawyers and barristers. Outcomes can be rigged at will, and the Family Court has brought our entire legal system into further disrepute. We, Australians, and on behalf of all parents, children and grandchildren who have had their lives destroyed by the regime, ask and demand that a Royal Commission be held into all aspects of the Family Court of Australia, and of related family law matters of the Federal Circuit Court, including the potential and preferred abolition of the courts. No-one should experience the Corruption that I did. Our democracy is broken when we cannot trust our courts. The Royal Commissioner should NOT be a judge, and the Terms of Reference must be signed off on and agreed to by a Committee of concerned and affected people like myself. Judges cannot be trusted. Judges should not be trusted. 2. SOME ASPECTS that need to be included - TERMS OF REFERENCE - relationships between judges, lawyers, barristers, ICL's, internal and external consultants, psychiatrists and psychologists be examined - this should include ALL past and present judges and consultants, and examine links with key politicians. - banks accounts, holidays, gratuities, diaries, phone calls, sms messages......nothing should be off the table - Family Law Rules need to be re-written in part. They are presently self-serving to the regime. - the true independence of all is paramount. This is far from the case at the moment and this must be examined in detail and a new system put in place - the need and use of independent expert reports, which just add layer upon layer of personal unprofessional bias, amounting to compounding errors. The errors in one report are picked up on by the next and become amplified. Imagine this happening 2, 3 ,4, 5 times etc. - the need and use for ICL's. This and the 2 above are very important and get to the heart of the matter. - judges need to have guidelines. Presently they seem to be Lone Rangers with a loose gun who can ignore the Family Law Rules as they choose for no reason. This is outrageous. - judges need to be stripped of their immunity. If any, it must be qualified. - there is no need for any consultant, internal or external, to be provided with immunity equivalent to a judge. They can lie as much as they like at present. - use of subpoenas which are awfully inefficient at present. Even registry staff, who work with the forms daily, can be confused by them. - what services should be provided to self-represented litigants - whether or not lawyers should be involved in proceedings, and how they should operate. They are a key part of the problem. etc (please see www. Fixthefamilycourt .com for much more information- website brought down by Family Court) 3. Emotional murder and slaughter by the Family Court of Australia. The Family Court is guilty of corruption. In particular, in my case, the internal female Family Court Consultant lied, with deliberate, malicious and evil intent. Who put her up to it? Unfortunately for the Court, I have a recording, which proves what I say. The judge, seemingly clueless in key areas (or corrupt? judge), deliberately accepted the liar's report, despite the fact that she was struggling on cross-examination and had obviously lied in and/or misled the court. Oddly enough, I tried to be gentle with the lying internal consultant with my cross-examination, to my detriment. Nonetheless, the judge had no interest in what I was saying, evidenced by his cynical comment "so it's biased is it?" in relation to her report. This was after her obvious struggle with cross-examination, and after I'd highlighted to the clueless or corrupt judge that virtually every point about the Respondents was positive, and virtually every one about me was negative. Indeed, the scope of the negativity against myself (basically all lies) was quite grand. I experienced this corruption, in my attempt, through court, to see my Grandson. Based on my case experience, and my extensive life experience, I believe the Corruption is endemic, and it was obvious to me in my proceedings, essentially, from Start to Finish. Judges lied, barristers lied, lawyers lied. I don't think I recall one professional acting really professionally. Psychiatrists, psychologists lied and/or misled the court. The Independent Children's Lawyer was not independent, failed to appropriately meet guidelines, was vindictive, lied and her barrister lied etc....there is much more. 4. At best, the Family Court tolerates Corruption and bad play. The Family Court has apparently done nothing about this, the Prime Minister and most Senators and MP's have done nothing apparent, and the Governor-General has refused, stating he doesn't want to get involved etc. The Family Court clearly, at best, tolerates corruption. After I informed the Court of the Corruption, some days after I discontinued my trial, the Court did nothing, tmk, other than a staffer saying, 8 days later, that it would be passed on. Absolutely, monstrously, incompetent and outrageous. What Di Bryant, a Judge of the Family Court did do, some time after my informing the court of Corruption, was publicly call in late 2015 for $17m more funding for the court, partly for more consultants, who may be likely to continue the corruption. This call for more funding, of course, means that the court did not have enough consultants prior, placing them under pressure to write quick reports, bad reports, corrupt reports, at the expense of Australian families. Resulting in the murder of Australian families. We need a Royal Commission, and YOUR signature, please. To force the Government to have a Royal Commission. The Government and Governor-General seem to be deliberately resisting my call for a Royal Commission. Please help reduce and stop the needless, extreme suffering of Australians. How many people has the Court killed? How do these people sleep at night, and how do judges and consultants look their children and grandchildren in the eye. And for that matter, how do the Governor-General and the liar that is our Prime Minister, to whom oddly enough this petition is directed, sleep at night, and look their children and grandchildren in the eye. WHAT HAVE THEY DONE, BESIDES NOTHING!?! Is it surprising that our judges lie when our Prime Ministers lie? And when the Attorney-General states that the PM, a liar, has the right character to be PM. The Attorney-General himself was censured by the Senate, only 2 such in +10? years, yet didn't resign. 5. TEXT BELOW from KATE MOIR'S PETITION for a ROYAL COMMISSION I wholeheartedly agree with her! https: // www. Change. Org/ p/ family-law-court-reformation-please-save-our-kids (Petition brought down by Family Court) 'We, the people, demand a Royal Commission into the conduct of all areas of the Family Court of Australia, The Family Court of Western Australia and the Federal Circuit Court. We believe that a child has a right to both a mother and a father. It is a sacrifice that must be made, when a couple separates, to remember that a child loves his or her parents unconditionally. Therefore, in the first instance, and where both parties want it, we believe that equal custody is the best option for the child, except in cases of domestic violence. In cases of domestic violence, the child should be protected from the role modelling of the aggressor and reside with the innocent party. We believe that the needs of the parents come second to the child but are also important. We are sick of being treated inhumanely. We, the people, demand transparency for the general public by removal of all Sections of the Family Law Act that offer protection to the conduct of the Court. We, the people, DEMAND that the Family Court of Australia, the Family Court of Western Australia and the Federal Circuit Court prosecute litigants for perjury, vexatious claims, fraud and for making false allegations to gain a 'strategic advantage' in Court. We, the people, demand that Independent Children's Lawyers be required to spend extensive time actually meeting those they represent, namely the children. We, the people, demand that the Anti Discrimination Act 1993 be broadened to include discrimination in legal proceedings and be applied in the Family Court system to protect the vulnerable. We demand that it be illegal to discriminate on the basis of age, sex, disability, marriage status or race. We, the people, demand an immediate investigation into the legal profession and other professions that services the Family Court of Australia, the Family Court of Western Australia and the Federal Circuit Court. We, the people, demand greater funding and resources for Legal Aid. We, the people, demand the children be heard by means of approaching the Judge directly, by letter or by an advocate of the child’s choice. We are not listening to our children. We, the people, believe that our children deserve to know what is happening. We should be able to speak to them about the Court process in a manner which is age appropriate. We, the people, demand ‘The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child’ be included into a bill for parliament as an official Act. We, the people, demand the true rights of the child be prioritised. Our Family Court system must in the name of natural justice and equality respect the UN Convention and associated humanitarian considerations. Our children have a right to feel safe, heard and to experience a happy, loving childhood that will help them develop to their full potential. Our children deserve happy childhoods. We, the people, believe all cases in Family Law should apply Common Law. Give children the right to be heard in their own lives! Treat our children with respect, integrity and compassion!'
