The Ugliest Woman in the Solano Family Court

Meet Ms. Susan Dickey-Black.  She is the ugliest woman working in the Superior Court of Solano County.  She is not the ugliest because of her physical appearance (although she is physically ugly), rather, it is because of her ugly character.  She is motivated by money and she uses lies to cover for incompetence and shortcuts.  She is an ethical zero but is protected by the Court System–the Court system which claims she is an independent employee, yet protects her because she is integral part of the Court’s backdoor management of case outcomes. (the hidden justice system embedded into unaccountable policies by the mediation department)

  

If you are a father who had an ex-wife making false allegation of domestic violence or other abuse and I do mean FALSE, you know that Ms. Black was sympathetic and extremely biased to hear the false allegations and amplify them.

I know because I took Ms. Black’s hand-written notes for my own case and showed them to other competent professional who did not want to go on record.  Of course this was illegal–but fuck it the Courts are corrupt and I had to hear it from professional not hired and protected by the Courts.  All four of them said Ms. Black was incompetent.

Ms. Black received two degrees from National University — at the time they were mail order degrees.  This was not even online degrees as her degrees predated the internet.  Yet the Superior Court of Solano County unleashed her to wield her incompetence.

Ms. Black is secondary in the incompetence department because it is the Court administrators who allowed Ms. Black to function without accountability or transparency.  The Court is as incompetent as any other State of California Bureaucracy, they just have less accountability and more arrogance.

The mediation program was also a pet project of Judges like Ichikawa who were blind to the true incompetence and bias of Ms. Black.  Judge Ichikawa sought to improve the system by creating a new system built in to conclusions guided by preferred outcomes.  Judge Ichikawa created a backroom star chamber of sorts. I can’t wait for the old fucker to die–he looks disoriented and confused all the time-it should be soon.

Its not just bias that’s Ms. Black’s problem–she is a liar.  Her motivation is not to attack men–this is incidental.  Her motivation is greed–pure and simple.  She tries to process more cases and make more money.  She does not read reports.  She makes quick conclusions.  And she uses her internal bias of readily accepting ALL men, ALL fathers as terrible things–its just simpler.  It fits the preferred case management strategy of streamlining based on probabilities–guys are just more likely to be idiots as a parent.  That doesn’t make every dad an idiot…but it matters not, because Judge Fucking Ichikawa empowered Ms. Dickey-Black to tilt the scales.

I find this system disgusting and personally feel the Court failed the people.  I believe the Solano Courts are corrupt full of arrogant Judges too close to the lawyers and too blinded by bureaucracy, complacency and greed.   I have rarely felt this way about the Federal Courts but feel the County Courts are just hillbilly courts full of lawyers chasing money and politics.

The Solano Family Courts reward lying and make presumptions about domestic violence. This puts honest good fathers behind the 8-ball before they even walk through the doors.  Its give the advantage to mothers who make false allegations.  This is good politics because the feminists have gotten the upper hand in political machinery now.

Dishonest and unethical people like Ms. Black simply go along for the ride.  After all– in reality–Ms. Black is incompetent.

So when I make statements about how fucked up the Solano Courts are…I don’t  mean it as an emotional outlet, I mean it as an observation of corruption and dysfunction within the Court system.  How the Court lies about the level at which politics and money really drive the outcomes of chiildren lives.

Children’s welfare as a guiding principal in California Family Courts before all else is bullshit.  Even paying the bastard lawyers comes before feeding the children.  And the lying bastard lawyers and Judges who work at the Superior Court of Solano County—well I hope all the fuckers burn in hell.  In reality, the mechanics of lawyer bullshit make children’s welfare a footnote in most cases.  In this regard,  putting a bullet in the head of a greedy corrupt lawyer should be considered a good thing.  (Don’t actually do this, but if you did, well I have no choice but to worship you as a hero.)

 

 

DSM-V will not have Parental Alienation: Fuck Barbara Boxer and NOW

The new update to the DSM due out in May 2013 will NOT include parental alienation.   Merry Christmas.

How is this relevant to the California Courts?

The Solano Family Courts needs a code in a book to consider this a valid and real problem.  Why?  Because of the stupid fucking lawyers who need it cut and dry in a book.

What is the DSM?  Its a consensus document voted on by APA professionals…a vote.   With regard to parental alienation, only about 50% of the professionals out there believe its not real–but 50% parental believe its real.  A flip of coin for something that will change the life of your children….but of course the Courts and idiot lawyers will say its with certainty or the Courts ruled in the best interest of the children.

Many of you fathers know its real and the problem is the Court hires old white women who identify with the National Organization of Women’s stand–that Parental Alienation is phoney.

The National Organization of Women help politicians appoint the “right” Judges and helps remove the wrong Judges.  Many women Judges are members of NOW.

Why does the NOW take a stand on Parental Alienation?  Because this is a gender issue in that women are more likely the cause of parental alienation. The Solano Courts bury parental alienation in the framework of domestic violence (you fathers).  But you got to be a greedy unethical lawyer or an old white women working for the Courts to deny that this is a political and gender issue that is shitting all over fathers in Superior Courts of Solano County.

So it will take many more years before the idiot Judges and lawyers of the Court say Eureka….we should have seen it before.   So this is always the history of the Courts with regard to all bias issues…the Courts are retrospective and revisionist….the only thing true throughout history is that Courts have enforced and facilitated bias…politically correct bias.

So give your Solano Family Court Judge the finger this holiday and watch out for the greedy fucking lawyers trying to pick your pockets.  And of course thank all the fucking old white women on the fringes of the National Organization of Women who have written another chapter of discrimination and child abuse.  Can you say fuck Barbara Boxer this Christmas?

 

 

Judicial Systems with no Credibility and the American Caste System

Recent issues about Gay Marriage and Immigration show how much politics are invading the justice system and this in turn is big business for lawyers.  This amounts to an unproductive tax on society as there is no real product except wasted paper.  Create chaos with arbitrary laws on morality and personal freedom–only the lawyers profit in the short term–and society loses no matter how you slice it.  (What do 5-4 decisions at the Supreme Court mean for immigration law?  I think it means that there is no right and wrong–rather only an arbitrary decision was made (even though individual Judges may have clear rationale).  Arbitrary decisions are eroding the faith in the judicial system.)

Perhaps nothing has ever changed and we have simply forgotten how to keep things simple and only pass laws that are absolutely necessary.   For some reason Courts and Politics have become a machine that feeds itself and whose purpose is to ensure its own prosperity.

I think many fathers see this in family courts.   The decisions are arbitrary to a great extent and rationale for the decisions do not make sense.  It is no different than many bad events in history where rationale to justify stupid decisions are given because those being judged are powerless.   (The Courts having an administrative playing field–home court advantage–and many times questioning a decision and receiving an answer are separated by too much money and too much time.)    To understand how the Court really at its core is a political beast that is distilled from the arrogance of lawyers you need only look at the obvious indicators–

laws are so complex no one knows if they are in compliance or not; why should you have to ask a lawyer if you are doing the right thing?  This situation is stupid and the lawyers have gotten the public to believe this is acceptable.  Should not laws be simple enough so the average person can actually obey them?

whether you get prosecuted when you are not in compliance is arbitrary–look at recent decisions to not enforce marriage bans by State Attorney Generals despite laws in their respective States, while at other times District Attorneys pursue cases for political badges such as some domestic violence cases against innocent fathers in Solano County.

your social status is a great predictor of whether you are more likely to be prosecuted for the good of society; it simply easier to get a second conviction or to prosecute someone who cannot mount a good defense in the Judicial bureaucracy and play stupid legal word games using an administrative system that only protects the Courts (not protect the people).

court decisions are increasing split (see the split Supreme Court Ruling today) and later reversed–read the newspaper headlines today about immigration.

courts and laws increasingly try to control morality (gay marriage bans, marijuana laws, obscenity laws) and children (recent California laws forcing courts to allow children to testify in divorce proceedings, treating children as adults, and creation of arbitrary frameworks for custody that change with political winds)

the Courts are fundamentally not relevant because they take too long to make a difference to any individuals life–what difference does a family court decision make if your child has grown up already?

So every time you go into the Solano Family Court realize its just a business for almost everyone but the parents and children.  The lawyers are their to make money (most of them).  The Judges are there for political or personal pride or ambition (most of them).  The mediators are there because they can’t get jobs anywhere else (most of them).  Don’t feel bad about bad mouthing them–because I have heard all of them turn around and bad mouth the insanity of parents in private.   Especially the lawyers because they seem to thrive on feeling better than others (caste system in their minds).  (This comparison of their failures to parents is unfair because parents are necessarily stressed and its their  job to provide a service for parents and families–particularly the lawyers being paid by parents.)    There are many very unprofessional and unethical types in the family court system.

So if you agree with any of this, you may agree that the lawyers have created a caste system like that in many countries we consider to be second or third world countries.  Its not a caste system based on royal blood, religion, or geography, but it is a caste system maintained by lawyers enforcing the will of those can mold laws or control the mass media.  With regard to family court, the Courts are not their to help you unless you are wealthy.  With regard to fathers at the bottom of the caste, delays and numerous procedural hurdles (its a magician’s trick of misdirection–its also the crafty greed lazy lawyers number one trick), mask the fact that the Courts are really doing nothing–status quo is usually the result of any legal decision.

Why Unethical Lawyers can lead to poor Judicial Decisions at the Superior Court of Solano County

The Solano Family Court is already of the mindset that it is overloaded and needs to focus on the most serious cases which it defines mostly as involving serious domestic violence or physical forms of child abuse.  If you are not in that category you are not going to receive much of the Judges time to sort facts.

This leads to Judges having a preference to believe lawyers–out of convenience and as a crutch–and it facilitates another situation.

Everyone likes to avoid sifting and analyzing documents and declarations by simply stating its all “he said, she said.”  (Rhetoric repeated–but in reality there is truth sometimes–so I guess Judges are saying its OK not to find the truth because its all he said she said.)  Pretty much everything you write or say will be weighted accordingly with no actual analysis of the credibility of your information.  Its not like on TV–the Courts and everyone involved merely does enough to create the impression of good-faith or due diligence etc.   Thus because of this framework (unwritten–part of the hidden justice system at the Superior Court of Solano County), Judges look for what they consider to be a reliable sifting of information–the lawyers who may represent you or your ex.

So what happens if the lawyer wants to play dirty and use attorney-client protection to create a deliberate strategy to game the Judge….well, the Judge goes along and your only option is to appeal.  The unethical lawyers is not on trail and it would be a major diversion to investigate the unethical bitch lawyers games–even if blatantly obvious.  The dirty unethical bitch lawyer wins.

Sure you can appeal, but it took you a long time and a lot of money to get to a certain point.      Appeals are for the rich or those that have the luxury of time–ie, no children are involved.  The unethical lawyers like Valerie Kraml factors this in.

There is nothing about the best interest of the children.   This is only what lawyers and Judges use to explain anything that is not directly out of a statute.

Thought you should know—if you don’t know how screwed up the Solano Family Court really is.   It’s just a business for lawyers to enrich themselves with the facade of doing justice.

 

Court efforts to be equitable creates perception of bias; how greedy slimy lawyers use this process to enrich themselves

The Superior Court of Solano County tries to balance money factors to make both parents equal when their are children involved.  I have long ago accepted this as reasonable.  As in in many cases men still make make more money than women, the Courts often take economic wealth from men and transfer directly or indirectly to women.  So this creates a negative feeling, which I think most fathers don’t dwell on too much if it is for the benefit of their children.

What father’s getting angry about is how lawyers abuse this process.   Many lawyers in Solano Family Court system will take a case for nothing if the mother has much lower income than the father, because they know the Court will most likely order the father to pay.  But this opens the door to a terrible process.  It give the slimy lawyer incentive to play stupid legal games of technicalities, because the mother has no incentive if she is paying. The Courts generally side with the father paying the slimy dirty lawyer no matter what stupid games he/she played.  The lawyers know this.

If you want to see the pitiful disgust lawyer in action, go watch this type of case.   Because you will notice the lawyer will ask for the money as the last process of a divorce.  Watch their tone of voice and level of effort as the they pander and lie about how much honest work they did.

This inherent conflicts of interest are plentiful because every time the Court patches itself, it creates a new injustice.  This will never go away until you make lawyers secondary in family law–and this may never happen because Courts self-regulated and the Courts are made up of lawyers– and lawyers always see each other as society’s savior and key to freedom.  (Refer back to entries about lawyers being greedy, narcissistic, lying, arrogant SOBs–not all–but most who feed off of families in the Solano Family Court.  This lawyers are the same whether from Napa, Vallejo, Fairfield, or San Ramon)

 

Two Fundamental Flaws with NOW Propaganda about PACA (Parental Alienation Child Abuse)

I’m avid blog reader and I notice feminist domestic violence blogs repeat the same rhetoric– and appear to not really understand the substance of what they are talking about.  (These blogs primarily cite their own horror story which I believe to be true and then quote the NOW propaganda.)  You can go to the current NOW webpage and find the same information.  While interesting and sickening to read, the National Organization of Women are not putting out consensus or universally agreed upon facts, they are putting out gender biased opinion and irresponsibly stirring up hurt women.

(With regard to stirring up hurt women, I think about hitting a hornets nest and the 2008 Presidential election.   Some of you will remember when Hillary Clinton was about to lose the nomination, she pulled the dirty trick–she tried to harness the anger of a generation of older women to win.  You may recall when Clinton’s surrogates, for example Salon Magazine, starting quoting the same line over and over–”I want to see a woman President before I die.”   Many older women across America cried over this because many older women lived through a time of institution bias against women.   It was irresponsible and dirty for Hillary to attempt to harness this force against Obama–but she was desperate.  So this desperate act of 2008, is what NOW has been doing for many years with regard to parental alienation–but this time they are harnessing women hurt by domestic violence–using them to further their gender biased agenda.)

(I should add that I think many in NOW are genuinely interested in equality, but the most active and influential who live and breathe equality are like Gloria Steinem–unable to move on with a new world and enjoying the power of being a victim.)

So back to parental alienation–I won’t go into what it is–because there are many excellent blogs and books.  But I would caution you to not assume you can infer the meaning from the words because it is so much more than two words can describe–so I added the words child abuse to make PACA–but even four words do not describe it.  Read the blogs and books if you are a father with ex-wife who is hurt and angry from the divorce process.  I made the mistake that I understood PACA from the words, but reading the long explanations made me understand.

Back to one step from the meat of the two flaws in the NOW propaganda.  First, every father should know there is a game words–PACA at its core requires denigration of one parent.  Basically, one parent bad mouthing the other parent until the child is put into a dark corner.  Well this bad mouthing is prohibited by all Courts including the Solano Family Courts–so if the fucking Superior Court of Solano County would do its job and enforce its own orders I would not be here writing about PACA.  (Ask any lawyer and they will tell you this part of the Court order–not to bad mouth the other parent–is not enforceable with the Solano County Courts. So why do the Courts issue the orders?  I assume because the Judges live in an ivory tower and feel good being theoretically right.)  So if you are in a corner, don’t use the term parental alienation as it is loaded with propaganda–just go to the bad mouthing being prohibited part.  You won’t get any further but at least you don’t have to listen to the flawed NOW propaganda.

So the fundamental flaws.  Number one is stating parental alienation is “junk science.”   Well, this relates to rules of evidence and factors such as credibility and reliability.  And guess what, these rules are very different between the Federal Courts and State Courts.  The State Courts have a much lower standard in general.   So when NOW says PA is “Junk Science” what does that mean?  They never explicitly state the standard–only offer the opinion of credential people who are on the periphery of PA.   The fact is the debate centers of the DSM–a diagnostic manual that is not in of itself a standard.  It is made a standard in some cases by State Laws.  The DSM has historically not had a rigorous standard for what is NOT junk science.  It is more or less a vote of professionals who belong to the APA.  You can split hairs and debate for ever about what is a standard, but you need only note that many DSM accepted disorders/problems are nothing more than speculation–for example, not long ago homosexuality was listed as a mental disorder in the DSM.  Some think it is, some not.  This is really the heart of the DSM–consensus opinion  among experts to form a GUIDE not standard.   Lawyers abuse this distinction and lay people are confused, and the laws that specify something that is only a guide to be a standard, well, screws everything up.  So the heart of the flaw is that NOW wants to hold PA to a high standard (as from hard sciences–but they never provide details just testimonials) whereas psychology is a soft science field. If you accept the NOW standard, you must reject most of the DSM because it does not meet the standards of hard science.

What do I mean by hard science versus soft?  Hard science is one where you can write rules and do experiments to verify things.  You do not have this luxury with psychology.  Psychologist use experience, judgment, and speculation–i.e. soft science is a little more than taking the best guess supported by available information and no proof is necessary.

The second fundamental flaw the NOW propaganda is that they assume domestic violence and PA are mutually exclusive–its one or the other.  Father’s rights blogs have gotten into this track.  This creates polarization and works to the advantage of NOW.  Father’s blogs need to acknowledge that both domestic violence and parental alienation occur–just as NOW and other gender biased organization need to do.  The need for credibility is important because NOW has one natural advantage–people believe what they can see.  Pictures of a black-eyed woman with cuts gets more votes in legislatures than something people have to read and analyze.  Our fault–we elect dumb politicians–and we let the lawyers run the show.  (Why do you have to be a lawyer to understand the law if the law was meant as a guide for all people?  Job security–family law is big business and the money grubbing lawyers have little value added but they ensure the process includes them  more than is necessary.)

The Superior Court of Solano County has gone down the mutually exclusive track as a result of our elected officials.  The Courts screen every case for domestic violence and when they are done–there is little time for anything else.  This is why false domestic violence allegations get so much traction and waste so much time.   (Can you imaging the Solano District Attorney prosecuting false domestic violence allegations?  It will not happen.  The operating doctrine by NOW–and through their political support– is that prosecuting false allegations will deter women from filing truthful violations.  At this point, there may be more false than truthful allegations–and NOW has taken society in a direction that does not help women but is done because of short-sighted gender bias that does not have equality as a goal.)

So as trivia (because even thought I tried to write in a lively fashion, I probably failed), what is true junk science and the roots of evidence for Courts?  It derives from the 1920 to 1930s deep South where they used science to prosecute rapists — almost exclusively black males.   It worked like this:  they stripped the black male and showed him erotic photos and did other things to get a reaction.  At first visual reactions were identified and if none, electrodes were attached to the penis; if an electrical signal was detected in response to erotic stimulus it was recorded.  This was considered presumptive evidence that a black male was a rapist.  Now are the lawyers of the deep South any different today–in essence have the same motivations and use the same short cuts today.  People are people and the actions and motivations of the past are often repeated in a different way.  Most certainly the lawyering business has always attracted many unethical and greedy people (not all lawyers, just most are this way).  Federal rules of evidence started originally as a response to this true junk science and many other practices across the US at the time.   In 50 years the stupid lawyers will be talking about how domestic violence programs prosecuted innocent people and how the NOW furthered gender bias in America.

 

Lying Lawyers Lying — It can’t be helped– Lawyers are Narcissists

I have to apologize to the people in our legal profession as I often refer to them as being lazy, greedy, liars, and arrogant.   I was wrong–about arrogant–the correct word is narcissistic and arrogance derives from that.

I had one negative comment from someone that I should use pictures in my blog.   So this blog is just a try at integrating pictures with text with a focus on why lawyers are lazy, greedy, lying narcissists.

First, I would like to establish a common frame of reference.  Everybody has heard lawyers become indignant about the suggestion they are dishonest.  (In your mind, you can probably hear the rhetoric of a lawyer citing ethics, the bar, etc.)  So what I think does not matter, here in is a recent Gallup Poll.

(Source:   http://www.gallup.com/poll/1654/Honesty-Ethics-Professions.aspx)

Note that the majority of people do not rate lawyers as honest.  The honesty of one telemarketer and one stockbroker equals the honesty of one lawyer (in a way).  But we should take a look at the breakdown of the poll shown here.

Now if you rephrase the question to:  are lawyers more honest the many other common professions?  The answer is conclusively NO to the vast majority of people.  This has got to be a shocker to lawyers.  Shove this poll down their throats every time they start to pontificate about themselves.

So what’s going?   Lawyers think they are more honest than the rest but no one else thinks so.   This is gets to the psychology of the typical lawyer.   Would you be surprised that the average lawyer is classified by personality tests as being a NARCISSIST?  Its true and we should get to this.

First, lets go back to the definition of narcissist.   Wikipedia says narcissism is:   In everyday speech, “narcissism” often means egoismvanityconceit, or simpleselfishness. Applied to a social group, it is sometimes used to denote elitism or an indifference to the plight of others. In psychology, the term is used to describe both normal self-love and unhealthy self-absorption due to a disturbance in the sense of self.  I think Wikipedia could change the title word to lawyer and it would read just fine.

But since I like dictionaries, lets verify this in the Free Dictionary which states narcissism is:  1) Excessive love or admiration of oneself. See Synonyms at conceit;  2)  A psychological condition characterized by self-preoccupation, lack of empathy, and unconscious deficits in self-esteem; and 3) Erotic pleasure derived from contemplation or admiration of one’s own body or self, especially as a fixation on or a regression to an infantile stage of development.

Now we need a picture of a lawyer to apply the word narcissist before we move on to develop the concept of why lawyers are greedy, dishonest, lying, arrogant, and lazy.  Pictured here is my representation of a lawyer the Cyprinion macrostomum which is the fish that feels away dead skin at high end spas and looks for food.  I wanted to use a picture of a grave yard robber as a first choice but could not find a good one. So it is, we use a fish as a compromise.

It’s getting late and I realize, I should have used a picture of a blood-sucking leech.

Now on to the characteristics of a lawyer: greed, laziness, arrogance, and narcissist.  The last characteristic is what must be established first by a well-known survey of the psychological characteristics of lawyers which establish that narcissism is a frequent characteristic.

{Placeholder….add Ratner study and other surveys tomorrow…time for bed}

Lawyers weigh the benefits (money, ego of winning) against the costs (remote possibility of getting caught and punished) and act in their self-interest.  Why do I say remote?   It is obvious that there is an unwritten policy in the Solano Courts to go after lying or false allegations–I could argue this and try to document this–but common sense and any exposure to the Court leads any reasonable person to the same conclusion.   Further, the Solano Courts seem to be very reluctant to punish lawyers as many have husbands, wives, and friends that practice in the Court.  (There is a musical chairs going on with private practices, the Solano District Attorney’s Office, and the Solano Bar Association.  Pick a name e.g. Russo, Ichikawa, Jones, Ellis, Mattice, etc. and draw the connections.  At some point you have to wonder whether the Judges are truly independent or just a club–when you look at the web of connections as a whole.  And that Judge currently under investigation for domestic violence by the DA (and getting favorable treatment), being represented by the head of the Solano Bar, who happens to have a spouse on the bench.  WTF is wrong Solano County?)
