So, once again, we keep child custody matters slanted in favor of the woman?
Got it!
“Supporters argued the 50/50 presumption would end immediately if there was an active domestic violence order – but Taylor said that’s simply not enough.”
Oh I can see it now. False reports of abuse will skyrocket with that little incentive.
The more things change, the more they stay the same!
Custody deputies can turn nasty. Estranged parents are known to turn full on vindictive against the other and use a child like a weapon against the other. That is an unforgivable thing to do to a child.
In some cases in SC, even attorneys have been spiteful. The judges would never report them as they are suppose to, either.
Additionally, it is also sickening when a lawyer that specializes in custody disputes and practices exclusively in family law tells their client that’s it is ok to violate court orders. Do not shake your head in disbelief.
The system is a racket. If you have money, it can bankrupt you.
I find it troubling that Rom Reddy and his band of merry-men started DOGE to address the wasteful SC budgets, spending earmarks and corrupt taxation. Now they would rather address the judicial system? Something is very off about all this.
Too much money.Too much time on his hands in what I deem to be an odd character. And you are clearly keen enough to see right through him . Others can’t.
I agree with DOGE that the system shows bias against fathers– Obviously, but I am a more rigid 50/50 presumption is only a cure for men. While divorce is about adults, its biggest impact is on the children, who have no say. Any custody law must be child-centric. 50/50 is easy to market, but it risks prioritizing adult rights over child stability. A better model involves: 1) Mandatory Parental Planning (education and mediation to develop a parenting plan); and 2) A Judicial Standard that maximizes contact with both fit parents while respecting the child’s pre-divorce routine and stability.
South Carolina family court needs to be reformed. The DOGE proposal is a great start. I hope it passes!
