South Alabama Parents Needed for Federal Class Action Against State of Alabama

02 FEB 10 - Constitutional law attorneys working on behalf of Alabama parents are taking the State of Alabama to federal court.

The attorneys are seeking parents from the southern region of the state for a federal class action case asking a federal question regarding how Alabama decides custody.
 
Please review the following.  If you or someone you know are similarly situated contact us by email.  The information provided will be forwarded to the attorneys.  NO PHONE CALLS, PLEASE.

Include a name, telephone number, best time to call, and a brief outline of your legal situation.

1)      Parent must be from state of Alabama south of Birmingham.

2)      Parent had equal-shared custody by agreement or by court-order.

3)      Equal-shared custody was modified/changed by another court order and one parent was granted physical custody.

A mother that lost custody is needed most, however since mother's have court-ordered custody 85% of the time, fathers are needed too.

The Motion Picture 'A Fathers Rights'

The motion picture 'A Fathers Rights"' is based on a true story of a father William "Wilky" Fain being denied parental rights.  Wilky produced the movie to help bring change to family law.

Currently Wilky is working on two fronts to expose unconstitutional legal practices in the family courts.

Firstly, Wilky has a natiomwide legal team - with a proven success rate - to challenge select family court rulings on Constitutional grounds. 

Secondly, Wilky's video production team exposes lawyers and judges that do not honor law. Video production - sometimes using hidden cameras - has already started in Alabama.  These documentaries will air on a national cable network.

Writ of Certiorari in the Supreme Court of the United States

28 Jan 10 - Paul J. Southwick of California filed a PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI in the SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES with the following questions presented.

I. Whether a state Supreme Court may deny review under the fifth and fourteenth amendments where a lower court of appeal has acknowledged a violation (deprivation) of an appellant’s due process.

II. Whether a state Supreme Court must mandatorily grant a petition for review and yield to the supremacy clause when that state’s constitution authorizes judicial discretion to decide what cases it will review after a due process deprivation has been acknowledged.

III. Whether it is a further denial of due process or equal protection not to treat an appeal as a peremptory writ and remand for further proceeding consistent to the right to have a full, fair, and fundamental hearing, including live cross examination, or the proffering of documentary evidence.

IV.  Whether it is a miscarriage of justice, or an obstruction of justice, for a deputy state attorney general representing a county in intervention to strike the augmenting of an official certified transcript of a prior O.S.C. hearing, during the interlocutory stages of the appeal, that presents a prima facie fact the respondent has committed felony perjury, conspiracy, witness tampering, or has fabricated evidence in conjunction with a fraud upon the court.

V. Whether a denial of due process or equal protection is an abuse of judicial discretion.
