NY SHARED PARENTING VOTE, APRIL 25, 2006 AT 9:00AM If you would like your event posted to our list, over 5000 members, please submit the form at: http://www.AKidsRight.Org/events.htm 1. Parents climb Westminster Abby on Good Friday ------------------------------------------------ [A bit of explanation before you read the below. The original Fathers-4-Justice website is at http://www.fathers-4-justice.org/, most stories report the group has 'disbanded' to some extent. Another group of parents has started "Real" Fathers For Justice, they have web sites at: http://www.realfathersforjustice.org/ http://www.fathersforjustice.org/ & http://www.fathers4justice.org/ We like most of their efforts and the risks they take for reform. We'd really like to see a Families-For-Justice -- our identity is not just Dads - Ed.] --- Submitted by: Arte Miastkowski <arte_miastkowski@yahoo.com> http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/articles/PA_NEWA18446561145019519A00?source=PA%20Feed Abbey protest pair arrested - 14 April 2006 - Two fathers' rights campaigners who scaled Westminster Abbey have been arrested by police. The men were arrested at the historic London landmark's West Tower, after spending the night on a balcony, a Scotland Yard spokeswoman said. (Follow link above for full story). 2. News from Canada - The HULK in Court - 17 April -------------------------------------------------- Submitted by: Burnaby Batman <who_s_my_daddy2000@yahoo.ca> Greetings from Vancouver BC Canada and the Bat. The link below will take you to the on line edition of the Surrey Now Newspaper article with the BC Hulk and F4J Canada, regarding the recent conviction the Hulk received for having scaled the Alex Fraser bridge in Vancouver BC May 07/05. http://www.thenownewspaper.com/issues06/043106/news/043106nn5.html Trust the media to once more confuse the facts. It should be known that Chris Wyatt was not dressed as spiderman and was not on the Pattullo bridge that same morning. Chris was not dressed in a costume and was merely upon the Alex Fraser bridge helping the Hulk achieve his task and was unable to escape to safety as 6 squad cars converged upon he and the Hulk before he could get down. The Spiderman upon the Pattullo bridge that same morning was another who has not been officially identified. 3. California Alert - April 25th Vote, make move away easier - two messages --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [This one is hard to take and should remind us we still have to make real progress. In California they want to make the fact that you have limited contact with your child when a move away occurs -- just an 'incidental' that shouldn't even be worth mentioning in Court. - The Glennsacks.com website (link below) makes it easy for you to send a FAX to the committee members. Ed.] --- Submitted by: "Teri" shared.parenting.works@gmail.com Senator Gloria Romero yesterday amended an unwelcome but relatively limited-reaching bill on parental move-aways, so as to amend the California Family Code to feature the new subdivision: A parent seeking to restrain a child's relocation shall make a prima facie showing, setting forth specific facts, as to the harm the child will suffer as a result of the relocation which necessitates a change in the child's custody. Normal incidences of moving, including, but not limited to, increased distance from the noncustodial parent, change of schools or neighborhoods, or alteration of the custody or visitation schedule, are insufficient in and of themselves to establish detriment or prejudice, and shall not be the basis for an evidentiary hearing regarding the relocation. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/postquery?bill_number=sb_1482&sess=CUR --- Submitted by: "Eric D. Tarkington" <etarking@ooadvocate.com> http://www.glennsacks.com/enewsletters/enews_4_18_06.htm Based on an alert from Glenn Sacks: There's some urgency here. A harmful maneuver is happening Tuesday, April 25 in a California Senate committee. Some California state senators are trying to slip in a last-minute amendment that would prevent noncustodial parents "from citing the moves impact on their children's relationships with them or the effects of the children losing their schools and friends." The case law in the state currently says that courts must consider these impacts on the child, so that there is at least some chance of protecting the child from losing all contact with a parent. Pushers of the amendment apparently don't want to see an NCP defending the children from a custodial parent who wants to move children for her own self-interest, even in the frequently man-hating family court. California groups are rushing to intercept this amendment in committee, and they are asking for help. They need to get Californians visiting http://www.accama.org/take_action.php#action and adding their voices to the resistance. The big thing in these campaigns is getting out the word, so pass it on if you can. 4. Parental Alienation Awareness Day - April 25 ----------------------------------------------- -- "ROBIN DENISON" <Buckey01@msn.com> We are working hard to make April 25 Parental Alienation Awareness Day a success. The web site for Parental Alienation Awareness Day is: http://www.parental-alienation-awareness.com/ =20 Hopefully, together, we can help people understand and put an end to this painful and destructive situation. 5. Indiana Civil Rights Council - join National Class Action suit. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted by: Torm Howse, President, Indiana Civil Rights Council Could you please post, on your next newsletter ... a "newsblip" that I have launched "Round 2" of the nationwide group lawsuits -- this time against each and every one of the 3142 counties in the USA?: http://www.indianacrc.org/ 6.
