    Extractions: Family Law and Fathers' Rights Antics in Maryland The following is a portion of the written testimony I had submitted to the Maryland legislature for its hearing on Maryland Senate Bill 571, a proposal for a rebuttable presumption for joint legal custody. I must give profuse thanks to my friend and colleague, Liz, for the extensive material she gave to me regarding how joint custody is not in the best interests of women and children. The Children's Rights Council lobbied extensively in support of this bill, which failed Friday the 13th of March, 1998 a very prophetic date, at that. Joint custody, whether joint legal or joint physical, is not in the best interests of women and children. A rebuttable presumption for any form of joint custody will create additional work for an already clogged backlog of family law cases. Judges don't want these cases. They're time-consuming, expensive, and unnecessary. Most parents do not want joint custody. Each custody case should be reviewed individually. People should not be forced to fit into a preconceived mold, which is exactly what the rebuttable presumption for joint legal custody will do. With an award of joint legal custody, an award of joint physical custody usually follows. Recent studies have shown that both forms of joint custody have had detrimental effects on children. Joint custody has been promoted by fathers' rights groups so that noncustodial parents predominately fathers may lower or eliminate their child support orders. The use of joint custody guidelines to reduce or eliminate child support was very common all over the country. Some fathers' rights sites on the Internet specifically refer to joint custody as a means of lowering or eliminating child support. According to "Achieving Equal Justice For Men And Women In The Courts - The Draft Report of the Judicial Council Advisory Committee on Gender Bias In The Courts" [The California Gender Bias Report - 1990], Dr. Mary Duryea, director of Family Court services in the Alameda Superior Court stated the following:

    Extractions: @import "/mainstyle-2.css"; Newsletters Juvenile law relates to the actions and well-being of persons who are not yet legally adults. A person is considered a juvenile if he or she is not yet old enough to be held responsible for criminal acts. The precise age at which a child ceases to be a juvenile varies from state to state, with a range from sixteen to nineteen years. In most states, however, the law considers individuals less than eighteen years of age to be juveniles. Age distinctions are important because they determine whether individuals who commit wrongful acts will be charged with a crime and tried in adult criminal court or whether they will appear in juvenile court. Juvenile courts have a different mission than adult courts. They have no authority to order punishment, but rather focus on rehabilitation. The juvenile court's response to misconduct is generally more lenient that the adult court's would be. In certain cases, if the offense is particularly severe or the offender is near the age of adulthood, the case may be transferred to adult criminal court. Juvenile court decisions also may be appealed to adult court. Juveniles have the right to receive notice of the charges against them, to confront and questions witnesses, to be free from self-incrimination, and to be represented by an attorney. In some cases, if the juvenile cannot afford an attorney, the court will appoint one. Juveniles charged with a crime do not, however, have the right to a jury trial that an adult offender would. Rather, a juvenile court judge hears all juvenile cases. At trial, a prosecutor representing the state presents the case against the juvenile, and the juvenile has an opportunity to respond. The prosecutor must prove the case against the juvenile beyond a reasonable doubt, which is the same standard applied in adult criminal cases. Although juveniles may be sentenced to secure confinement, the court also has the options of imposing a fine, restitution, probation, or medical treatment. Alternatively, juveniles may be removed from their homes and placed in foster care or a non-secure state facility.

Items are not to be considered legal advice or to create any lawyer-client relationship. Many articles include some now-obsolete information, because of dealing with the problems of earlier years. In addition, taking any legal information out of context, i.e., using it in a different court or a subtly different kind of case, or without the training to understand all of what it means or doing research to verify it, usually has disastrous consequences.

    Extractions: Return to Articles legal.online Column No. 11, January 1996 For Family Lawyers, Net Resources Are Few By Robert J. Ambrogi Family law divorce and child custody may be the most ubiquitous field of law practice. That makes it all the more surprising how few family-law resources there are on the Internet. Although by now there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of law firms on the World Wide Web, only a handful of them are family lawyers. And where, for other fields of law, significant libraries of online resources are being developed, there remains little of significance to the family practitioner. Still, as with anything else on the Internet, there is much more than immediately meets the eye. Family Lawyers By far, the most comprehensive, informative and well-designed family law site on the Web belongs to the Law Office of Sharyn T. Sooho, Newton, Mass. Steve Fuchs, an associate in the office, has created what is really two sites in one. The primary site is home to the firm's electronic newsletter, The Family Law Advisor.
