Elaine Mickman, Author, Speaks Out On How The Judiciary Is At War With The Constitution, And What Are We Going To Do About It? Mar 07, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes back Elaine Mickman, Author of, "Court Gate...The Court$ Divorced From The Law," available FREE in eBook this Saturday March 12th, 2022. Elaine was last on the show on Season 3, Episode 20.
Elaine discussed how the courts are completely eroded, no ruling by law, no following the Constitution, bias and collusion. The court officials violate the 6th Amendment every day.
IOLTA (Interest On Lawyer Trust Accounts) was discussed in-depth and how it is used for a "slush fund." Elaine explained how most lawyers have IOLTA and this has tax-free benefits.
Elaine discussed the judicial abuse of power and the violation of the 6th Amendment. There is more that the public does not know about. There are bigger problems than most know about. The public has lost all confidence in the judges. Judge shopping is another issue, another instance is a judge of the same level cannot over rule a previous order, over-riding jurisdiction of the previous judge, yet it happens.
Malfeasance and nonfeasance were discussed in depth. The Judicial Conduct Board is comprised of sitting judges, attorneys and lay people. They dismiss 99% of cases as" frivolous."
There is a bill in Pennsylvania that must be amended and addressed by the public. PA bill 1909 introduced by the Legislators seeking reform to expand the Judicial Conduct Board from 12 members to 18 members. Expanding this would only expand the network of the connections of corruption. What needs to be done is that the JCB must be completely independent of the system. The proposed bill obstructs the public from getting their complaints fairly considered and reviewed.
Hamilton warned, "liberty can have nothing to fear from the judiciary alone, liberty would have every thing to fear if the judiciary were to unite with the other branches of government. Reflexive deference to the government irrespective of constitutional limits is judicial abdication of the duty to guard the Constitution."

Michael Sayen, Author, PART 2: Parent's Rights Vs. Children's Rights Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Michael Sayen back on the show for Part 2. Michael was last on Season 3, Episode 25. Much discussion on Parent's Rights vs. Children's Rights.
John Locke wrote, the purpose of government is to secure and protect the God-given inalienable natural rights of the people. The Declaration of Independence says, "it is [our] duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for [our] future security." The purpose of the government is to protect our rights and make it safe to practice our fundamental liberties. That is the job of the government.
Sometimes others threaten our unalienable rights, so the government will create laws to govern their actions. Our rights are given by God and fundamental. The US Supreme Court has said that our fundamental rights must be protected by the State. Such as life, liberty, and property (14th Amendment). The Supreme Court said for the courts to take away a fundamental right, it must be done with strict scrutiny. Strick scrutiny says there must be a "compelling" State interest, and it must be narrowly tailored.
The Best Interest of the Child is the State (or court) saying there is a compelling state interest situation that causes the State to violate a parent's fundamental right to raise their child. The US Supreme Court has said time and time again, that the parent knows what is in the best interest of their child, not the State (Troxel v Granville, 2000). And that right must be narrowly tailored to protect the parent's rights to raise their child without government interference. Because, a parent's right to raise their child is fundamental (Troxel v Granville, 2000).
However, the best interest of the child was created to express the State's compelling interest to interfere with the parent's rights. They are putting the State's rights over the parents to safeguard the child. The problem with the State using the best interest of the child standards is that they are not showing compelling reasons why the State must be involved, or how the child is in danger from the parent. Therefore, the State is not using the best interest of the child in family court cases, but they are exercising the child's constitutional rights over the parent. The problem with this is, since the child is under the parent's authority, the State is superseding the authority of the parent to rule against the parent. The way the State Court's justify this action is an ancient doctrine called Parens Patrie.
Parens Patrie is an old term that says, the Nation is the parent of the child. It gives the government the power to supersede the parent's authority. They claim this is to protect the child from harm (endangerment). Therefore, this is another way to say, "compelling State's interest." This doctrine was used both in ancient Rome and England. However, it was used in England in 1608 to eventually say, the King had supremacy over children when the parent was no longer fit "unfit" to parent their child, or the child was abandoned by the parent and given up for adoption. Parens Patrie cannot be used as a doctrine in family court (Juvenile Court) because the government does not have the supremacy over its citizens (Leviathan).

Peggi Wegener Introduces TRE Mar 03, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Peggi Wegener. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and has been a psychotherapist for 35 years. She has extensive experience in suicide prevention/crisis intervention and adult mental health and wellness including the treatment of stress, depression, anxiety, abuse/trauma, grief and more. She obtained certification as a TRE Provider in 2017 and was invited to become a TRE Provider Trainer. She began that certification process in 2020 and expects to complete it in 2022.
Peggi loves teaching TRE because, not only is it effective in reducing muscle tension, calming the nervous system and building resiliency, it is also self-empowering and self-initiating -- once learned, a person can continue to use TRE on his/her own without being dependent on a practitioner.
Using TRE at least twice a week as maintenance for her own nervous system Peggi has experienced better sleep, more patience with normal irritations, and less physical symptoms of stress.
Stress, tension and trauma are neurophysiological processes, and our bodies have a marvelous alarm system that responds to danger (real or imagined). Once that alarm goes off, our bodies respond by hyperarousing certain systems that are critical to our survival (muscles, heart, lungs, key hormones) and turns down or off certain systems that are unnecessary if we are “about to die” such as sleep, processing food, immune system, sex drive, AND complex thinking.
The alarm system also has a built in reset mechanism that restores functions to their relaxed ready processes which are trembling and shaking. All mammals tremble and shake as they recover from stress.
By 10 years of age, most humans have gotten the message not to do that because it means you are weak, crazy, weird, or broken. In so doing, we trap stress and tension and trauma patterns in our neurophysiology.
TRE is a tool that, when done regularly, has the potential to unwind the deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma thus restoring our systems to their relaxed ready processes.
Individuals who do TRE often report improved sleep, better digestion, less aches and pains, more joy, improved relationships and more. Athletes even use TRE for muscle recovery.
TRE can be adapted for most ages and abilities and it is best learned with a certified provider. That person can help you not only learn the TRE process but also learn your system so that you can get the most out of the process. Like many therapys, TRE is not a “one and done” process. Improvements are far more likely when TRE is done regularly.

Paul Zeitz, M.D., Discusses A Global Initiative, The Brave Movement, That Will Be Launched 3/3/2022 To Advocate For Prevention Of Child Sexual Violence Mar 02, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Paul Zeitz, M.D. to the show. Extremely important discussion involved, "The Brave Movement," that will be launched in the early morning hours on March 3rd, 2022. "The Brave Movement," is a survivor-centered global movement fighting to end childhood sexual violence.
Prevention to protect and reduce risk, Healing for victims, survivors and their families and Justice for victims and survivors as well as accountability for offenders and institutions who covered up the abuse.
It is important to know that child sexual abuse comes in all forms and it doesn't matter of the age, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, nationality or economic status. This can happen anywhere either in homes, schools, places of worship community, sports and especially online/social media, which is unregulated and must be held accountable.
About 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 13 boys experience child sexual abuse at some point in childhood. This public health crisis has been put on the backburner for too long and was only exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Disruptions in routine, isolation, more time spent at home and online, financial insecurity, stress, and anxiety increased the risk and incidents of violence against children.
The data shows COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted communities of color, further exposing longtime racial inequities. We also know that longstanding structural barriers have made it more difficult for Black and Indigenous communities to access a variety of critical services focused on prevention, healing, and justice to end child sexual violence. In some cases, the systems designed to protect individuals and families have actually caused harm and exacerbated existing inequities.
This is unacceptable. We must work together to protect every child and serve all families and communities. We can create a healthier, safer world for every child. Join us and #keepkidssafe.

Natalia Dalton Shares Her Story Of Unfairness In Family Court And How The Court Is Failing her Son Feb 26, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Natalia Dalton And Chris DeVol to the show. Natalia shares her incredibly unfair story of a mother taken away from her son.
Natalia Dalton is from Alexandria, Virginia and had a son with an ex-boyfriend in 2008. Since the child had been six years of age, Natalia had physical custody. However, when she started to see her son acting aggressively after returning from his visits with dad, Natalia sought help in the court in 2014.
The court, instead of investigating the causes of her son's behavior, they instead fixated themselves on Natalia Dalton. She then became a Target Parent.
In a status conference, the opposing attorney filed an Emergency Motion to SWITCH CUSTODY because he claimed that Natalia had come to her son's school barefoot. Natalia states this never has happened and she was not even at the conference. This motion was granted.
Natalia has found herself only allowed two, three-hour sessions per month to see her son to the tune of $300.00 per session.
Natalia's ex complained that she was rude to a doctor. Unfortunately, there was a court order in place which forbade Natalia to communicate with doctors regarding her son's health. After Natalia had sent out four emails when she became very concerned about the medication, the physician changed the medication. But in retaliation, the judge SENTENCED her to FIVE days in JAIL for violating the court order.
Natalia states, "I have this constant ache in my heart," and "I find myself crying more than usual because of how unfair it is that I can't see my son."

Michael Sayen, Author, PART 1: Err On The Side Of Caution, Parent's Constitutional Rights Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes back book author, Michael Sayen to the show. He was last on, on January 19th, 2022, Season 3, Episode #9.
Michael explains contracts and covenants. The truth is, our culture is not compatible with proper family law.
The most important thing is to look at marriage and divorce biblically and covenantally. I strive for laws that are biblically accurate. 50/50 shared custody is not a biblical approach to family law. It’s a band-aid approach to our current system. It just says, women can’t have their cake and eat it, too. They can’t expect there to be “no-fault” divorce and not apply the fair and good faith principles of contract law.
They want to apply “equity” to “no-fault divorce,” however, these laws cannot legally be looked at it that way because, marriage is a contract here in America (marriage license). Contracts are protected by the constitution from government interference. No state shall pass any Law impairing the obligation of contracts (Contract Clause - Article I, Section 10).
Furthermore, not all civil divorce and remarriage situations are considered adultery in the Bible. However, the far majority of them are. Only those who have not been properly released from their vows (promise and obligations) by the proper nullifying the marriage contract.
The woman is responsible for her acceptance of the covenant. “Who forsakes the companion of her youth, And forgets the covenant of her God” NKJV (Proverbs 2:17). You can’t have a biblically recognized divorce, but still have contractual obligations. It simply doesn’t work that way. Adultery means, the marriage covenant has not been nullified. It is still active in the eyes of God and will be used against you on judgement day.
Only the man was allowed to initiate the divorce. And it was only allowed to be voided if the wife committed adultery in the marriage. Or, some form of sexual immorality by defiling herself and breaking the one-flesh commitment.
More to come in Part 2.

Judith M. Weigle Speaks Out On Raising The BAR On Attorney Ethics Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Judith M. Weigle. She has been a mediator for 11 years, a Legal Document Assistant for 10 years, and in private practice family law for 10 years.
Judith explains that there is a new level of service being offered to the legal community users, which is the Paraprofessional. This is completely rocking the world of attorneys because it is taking from them the most two sacred aspects of their services:
Providing legal advice AND showing up in court with a Pro Per/Pro Se litigant.
Washington State was the first state with Paraprofessionals however, now they are discontinuing licenses. Utah and Nevada have already instituted this newly credentialed person and the attorneys have brought it on themselves by OVERCHARGING and badly representing their own clients. The concept is to provide access to the legal system to people who cannot afford $400.00 per hour. Judith explains the pros and cons to the Paraprofessional.
Judith encourages the public to look for lawyers that are ethical. For instance, in a divorce, you can control when you file for divorce and you can control the speed of the divorce. If a person goes through the emotions and grief stages, divorce becomes a new beginning. If your attorney is going to engage in this conversation with you, then you have a good attorney. There should be no need for Father's Rights attorneys, as children need both parents have become the topic.
Collusion, bias and the unethical behaviors of attorneys was heavily discussed from attorneys creating emotional pain and then compounding the emotional pain by unethical frivolous filings and continuances.
The bar must be raised on attorney ethics.

Mark Andrews: "Future Forward Together," Candidate For The People, By The People Feb 24, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes back Mark Andrews as he announces his Candidacy for US Congress, 9th District San Joaquin Valley, California in the Stockton area as an Independant. His slogan is "Future Forward Together," and this is very important to all of us. Mark addressed several issues that are important to his candidacy.
Mark would like to introduce a Family Law Bill of Rights and this bill should go through the House and the Senate as some/most parents have gone through the Family Court system. We all have in common in Family Law: the Title IV-D funding that the Federal Government pays to each district to each community, to help them implement laws and enforce laws against families. They get serious bonuses for removing children through CPS, finding them foster parents and especially when they adopt them out after a two year period. Mark also spoke on how America was grown on the stability of the family. The Bradley Act guts this inadvertently. Lawyers that ended up being politicians, other politicians as well, Bradley was a Governor, they found out that if we get them into court as lawyers, and we keep them fighting all the time and we can break this up, we can keep getting funding. Keeping someone fighting for their financial benefit is WRONG.
Judges have immunity? This was a great discussion as judges made this up themselves. The wolf is guarding the hen house. There needs to be judicial accountability. The children do not have a voice. Mark wants to be a candidate who stands up for the children and families as they are hurting the most.
Mark also talked about how the Federal Government is denying water in the San Joaquin Valley for their crops. Farmers should be able to get water for their crops. We should be able to help farmers get their water at a fair price.
The January 6th Insurrection should be looked into. Mark is of a clear mind that anyone in the House, Senate, anyone who participated in this treasonous action should be impeached from their position.
Great discussion of a new and up coming candidate with excellent ideas and explained so thoroughly.

Jennifer A. Murphy, M.S., A.S. Discusses The Facets Of The Children's Alliance Task Force And Putting Kids First Feb 23, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Jennifer A. Murphy, M.S., A.S. to the show. Jennifer is a child advocate, it is not what she does it is who she is! Jennifer explains that children are our greatest resource.
For many reasons kids today are not being "raised," so to speak. They are "learning" most of life's lessons on the internet, violent video games, TV and their friends. We are no longer going to accept the things we cannot change. We are all child advocates. We are not trained to retreat.
Jennifer states, it is, "GAME ON!" We have failed our children on so many levels. As advocates it is our responsibility and obligation to fix the issues that are not working for our kids.
Jennifer has an amazing group of Social Change Agents: a global multidisciplinary, multifaceted attack on the issues and topics that will impact children. Jennifer has launched a global initiative that will become a sustainable MOVEMENT FOR PUTTING CHILDREN FIRST.
Jennifer is asking for leaders in their area of expertise to join us as we launch this Initiative as momentul for a more sustainable Movement to PUT KIDS FIRST!
A multidisciplinary, multifaceted assault on CSA/CSE with leaders from around the globe working in sync to address this horrifying reality that has only gotten worse not better with the internet, etc.
