Going to bump this, because I have always believed kids should not go through the hell of parents that can't agree.
Wow.Going to bump this, because I have always believed kids should not go through the hell of parents that can't agree.
No one cares, Whiner. You lawyer fux make it worse!!Going to bump this, because I have always believed kids should not go through the hell of parents that can't agree.
I scrolled through so maybe I missed it - did it mention ages of kids involved?
I guess I went straight to the law and arguments. Didn't notice ages.
I'm telling you though, and this board is indicative of it, that some parents won't agree on anything. It might be one or both.
In my situation with my stepchildren, dad would constantly cancel medical and mental health appointments. Threatened providers.
It eventually got bio-dad on child abuse registry. But in the meantime, kids suffered.
Hmmm
Well Joint Physical Care should be the default. Doesn't matter for me now.
Summary please? It is 36 pages. What is the issue?

Remind me in two hours after the Chiefs game, I'll give you my best summary. In the meantime, read the dissent. I agree with the dissentSummary please? It is 36 pages. What is the issue?
Sorry Jimmy. I have read more exciting phone books…how about a brief synopsis for us normal, non lawyer guys…😉
That doesn't solve the problem(s) in the forementioned case.
?Why are you submitting this here? It's not peer review. Lol.
What an odd result, yes the dissent nailed it.
Trial judges have been getting their hands dirty on these types of issues for decades, and no attorney thought any differently of it (except if they lost the hearing they bitched and ranted about it once back at the office). The judges have the power to rule on damn near anything they want to in these types of cases, heck many times they rule on matters that aren't even contained in the pleadings!
The courts now want a three position switch: Mom, Dad, or joint custody. And if you get joint you have to agree on everything, or come back to ask us to change the switch position to Mom or Dad...no nuance.
Sometimes I think the Iowa judge rotation system does not serve the public well, and it's really a mess to have family law cases tossed between the different judges, depending on the schedule.I guarantee the ones in the majority have never had a family law practice. It's painful to tell clients there is nothing I can do but start a modification action.
Stupidity at its finest. Best interests of the child(ren) should always be the primary concern.

I'm not sure it would be a cure all, but in other states the judge stays assiged to the file so the judges get to know the parents, the children, and the lawyers in the case, and fewer matters go to trial.
Other states deal with it fine. Sure, it gets awkward at the grocery store or if there are kids at the same school, but people deal with it.I agree. Significant criminal matters get a judge assigned. Family law cases might be appropriate as well. Might require litigants to leave the county though.

Not trying to be argumentative, just sharing my thoughts.
What is the general feeling of the family law section of the state bar? Maybe the entire section council should author a letter?I really want to write an op-ed to DSM Register but I suppose that is not a good idea.

this whole thing is bogus: there is no such thing as a covid vaccine. it's a shot that gives people heart attacks and strokes.
