Joshua Youssef Takes on Tracy Bernson, Nancy Geiger, and the N.H. Family Court

Wednesday, March 7, 2012

Pt.2 - Joshua Youssef Takes on Tracy Bernson, Nancy Geiger, and the N.H. Family Court

As many of you recall, On Feb. 2, 2012, Joshua Youssef testified before the Redress of Grievance Committee at the N.H. House of Representatives regarding the destruction that was leveled upon his family when the N.H. Family Court ripped his son from him 13 months prior - with no findings of abuse or neglect!

In this second hearing installment, Mr. Youssef takes on several more tough legal and procedural issues that cut right to the heart of the corruption in the N.H. Family Court and N.H. Judiciary in General - specifically:

   1) how former guardian ad litem Tracy Bernson filed a false police report, and through her attorney has attempted to improperly influence 2 judges that have been involved in the Youssef matter - a Class-B felony under N.H. RSA :3

   2) How N.H. Circuit Court Administrative Judge Edwin Kelly contradicted himself by saying he cannot adjudicate Youssef's grievances and that "appeal" is the only procedural remedy - but then he signed 2 orders granting recusal of the incompetent, corrupt, feminist Marital Master Nancy J. Geiger and changing the case venue

   3) How Youssef's May 20th, 2011 parenting plan was not ordered in accordance with N.H. RSA 490-D:9, and thus, should not be enforceable; and how the court "apologized" to Mr. Youssef basically asking Youssef to "cut them some slack." (quotations added)

   4) How Pt.2, Article 73-a of the N.H. Constitution has created a self-regulating judiciary that is not subject to government of, by, and for the people, and thus is a hotbed of corruption, as is evidenced by N.H. Family Court Rule 1.2, N.H. Supreme Court Rule 3(9), et. al.

   5) How N.H. House of Representatives Lawyer Edward C. Mosca's utilized his position as house counsel to "bully" Mr. Youssef from appearing at the Legislature, and how there is a very serious conflict of interest by allowing House Counsel to conduct a private law practice.

You will note that Youssef uses copious documentation to support his claims. Every single one of the questions asked of Mr. Youssef were addressed with law and fact and Youssef has indicated that he is available for comment.

It is amazing the lengths that public officials will go to in order to cover up their corruption!

The Boston Globe called on the legislature and the Governor to convene a Shared Parenting Task Force (From the website of Fathers and Families)

Write The Boston GlobeIn an editorial this week, The Boston Globe called on the legislature and the Governor to convene a Shared Parenting Task Force. This could prove to be a breakthrough on shared parenting in Massachusetts, and then, like marriage equality, in the rest of the country. It is the first time The Boston Globe has taken a stand on a Task Force for shared parenting. The Boston Globe said there is “a genuine need to examine the workings of family courts,” Also, “It’s time to break the contentious impasse [on this issue].”

This editorial will increase the pressure that Fathers and Families has been bringing behind the scenes for the Legislature to act. The Globe’s editorial is a direct result of YOUR past activism and support, as well as the activism of some who are outside of Fathers and Families

It is time to keep up the pressure! We want you to do two things:

1. For everyone: Show the Globe that a lot of people care deeply about this issue. Write a letter to the editor of The Boston Globe agreeing with their call for a Shared Parenting Task Force. Keep your letter to 200 to 250 words. Tell The Boston Globe how important shared parenting is for children and the need for genuine reform in our family courts. Women in particular should take this action. Now is the time to push this issue to the front burner.
   
   Keep your comments positive. Do not criticize the Globe for not writing the perfect editorial. Write from the heart, and tell them BRIEFLY what your experience has been. Some additional themes are suggested below. Do not get off track with other subjects, such as child support or feminism, etc.
   
2. For Massachusetts residents only: Here is the second thing you need to do. Contact your Representative and Senator on Beacon Hill (not Washington, DC) and tell them you agree with The Boston Globe’s call for a Shared Parenting Task Force. Ask your Senator and Representative to encourage the Judiciary Committee’s Chairs, Senator Cynthia Stone Creem and Representative Eugene L. O’Flaherty, to appoint a Shared Parenting Task Force. The voters of Massachusetts are looking to them for their leadership.
   
   Again, keep it brief, positive, upbeat, and free of sarcasm, bitterness or anger. Speak from the heart, and tell them your experience. You will probably be connected to a Legislative Aide rather than the elected official. That is standard practice, not a brushoff, so do talk to the Aide. Email us and let us know what they said.
   
   Find your senator's and representative's telephone number and email address.

When you write the Globe and contact your legislator, here are points you can choose from to make. Remember to include information about your children.

• Fathers and Families agrees with The Boston Globe editorial seeking a task force to review custody laws.
• This is an ideal opportunity for Massachusetts to lead in developing true, working, shared parenting legislation.
• It would also be a major breakthrough for gender equality in the family courts in America.
• Through a 2004 ballot initiative, over 86% of Massachusetts voters have already stated they want shared parenting.
• Anything less than shared parenting penalizes innocent children and separates children from loving fathers, grandparents, and other relatives.
• Your name and your town, so they know where you vote.

Our children need us to act NOW.

Nicholas Haas-Redress of Grievance Hearing TOMORROW!!!

Nicholas Haas-Redress of Grievance Hearing TOMORROW!!!

Wednesday, March 21, 2012 at 12:54PM

 

Public Hearing to be held tomorrow morning, March 22nd 2012 at 10am in the Legislative Office Building.  Room 303.  The building is located right behind the New Hampshire State House in Concord.

This Grievance is in regards to perjury, bias, parental alienation, GAL bias and collusion, judicial abuse and false imprisonment.

Children do best with both parents equally as the LAW STATES in RSA 461.

My husband, Nicholas, has not been allowed contact with his two daughters since September 26th 2009.  A mistake on an order made by a court, unwilling to fix their mistakes, caused my husband to be falsely incarcerated and has caused severe emotional and financial distress on our family.

We have made our case public.  We have reached out to the community and to those with power to help us (ex: Administrative Court Judge Edwin Kelly) and no one has fixed the mistakes made by the court causing the pain and suffering our family has endured.

With so much evidence and no where else to turn, we are going forward with our Redress Petition Hearing tomorrow morning.

Maybe the Legislative Branch will have something to say about innocent families being abused for WANTING TO SEE THEIR CHILDREN!!!!!

Please feel free to attend our Redress Hearing.

Blessings,

NH Attorney Lenora Boehm Receives Six Month Suspension - From The Professional Conduct Committee After Kimberly Frederickson Files Complaint - From The Website Of The NH Bar Association

Bar News - March 19, 2010 (Click Here To Go To NH Bar Website And View Original Article)NH Supreme Court Professional Conduct Committee

Boehm, Lenora E. advs. Kimberly Frederickson # 08-055
Summary of Six Month Suspension
With Three Months Stayed with Conditions For Two Years
(effective April 1, 2010)

On January 19, 2010, the Professional Conduct Committee deliberated this complaint against Lenora F. Boehm, Esquire, and issued a six month suspension with three months stayed for two years, with the stayed three months not to be imposed if the Respondent meets certain conditions during that two year period. The parties stipulated to the facts, and rule violations of Rule 8.1(b): Failure to Cooperate, and 8.4(a): Misconduct. The parties also stipulated that Ms. Boehm would pay all costs of the investigation and prosecution of this matter.

Kimberly Frederickson filed a complaint with the Attorney Discipline Office (ADO) against Ms. Boehm, alleging misconduct stemming from Ms. Boehm’s representation of her ex-husband. The matter was docketed and Ms. Boehm was asked to respond to a letter dated December 11, 2008, from the ADO, to which Ms. Boehm did not respond. The ADO sent a second letter on January 13, 2009, and the Complaint Screening Committee sent a third letter on February 13, 2009, informing her that the complaint was being referred to Disciplinary Counsel for further action on both the failure to respond to a disciplinary authority and on the merits of the complaint. Ms. Boehm took no action until she filed her answer on July 13, 2009.

Ms. Boehm’s failure to respond to the ADO’s correspondence represents a knowing failure to respond to a lawful demand for information from a disciplinary authority, a violation of N.H. Supreme Court Rule 37A(II)(a)(5)(C). In view of the seriousness of Ms. Boehm’s misconduct and her prior recent and lengthy disciplinary record, it is the Committee’s view that the public can be protected, public confidence in the Bar can be maintained, and the integrity of the legal profession can be preserved only through Ms. Boehm’s suspension with conditions.

This matter is of public record, and available for inspection at the New Hampshire Supreme Court Attorney Discipline Office, 4 Chenell Drive, Suite 102, Concord, New Hampshire 03301.

An Open Letter to the Family Courts

By Rinaldo Del Gallo III, on February 19th, 2007

A mother lives openly with her boyfriend while still married to her husband. Guess who gets awarded custody of their children?

I will never forget one particular case that opened my eyes to the reality of the family court. It happened when I first started practicing family law in Massachusetts. A mother wanted to divorce the father, who was a practicing Catholic. While still married to the father, the mother openly lived with a boyfriend with the children present, including an impressionable teenage girl. In pursuit of the free exercise of his religion, and making full use of his right to free expression, the father told his daughter that what his mother was doing was wrong and that adultery was a sin under the Catholic faith. During the course of litigation, the judge became especially angry when it was argued on the father's behalf that the environment created by the adulterous mother was not a good environment for children. New in the field, I was shocked that the father was lambasted for telling the child that adultery was bad, and that although the child should love and respect her mother, the daughter should understand that adultery was bad and a sin. To my shock and amazement the argument put forth was that father was "alienating" his daughter from the mother by making the daughter think less of the mother.

Divorce Poison™ Antidote of the Month

Welcome Back, Pluto: Understanding, Preventing, and Overcoming Parental Alienation

In terms of scope and potential to prevent and alleviate irrational alienation, this new DVD is more than an Antidote of the Month. Apart from the revised edition of Divorce Poison, Welcome Back, Pluto has been my major assignment for the past two years. It is the most powerful resource I can recommend for children who reject a parent or are being influenced to do so. Read more.

Successfully Restored Relationships

Hope for Future Reconciliation

Despite their overt attitudes, many children who reject a parent secretly long for an excuse to reestablish contact. In addition to maturity, physically leaving the orbit of the favored parent, and becoming more psychologically independent, two situations that can form unexpected bridges to a reconciliation are:

1. growing conflict with the favored parent, and
2. financial dependence on the rejected parent.

In some families, for instance, children run into economic difficulty, such as needing funds for college, and this becomes the rationale for contacting the rejected parent.

Second Wife to Judge: ‘Your Courts Are Destroying My Family’ (From The Fathers And Families Website)

Second Wife to Judge: ‘Your Courts Are Destroying My Family’

December 8th, 2011 by Robert Franklin, Esq.

This short entry caught my eye (NH Insider, 12/6/11).  Why wouldn’t it?  It’s by a woman named Samantha Haas who asks a simple question, “why wouldn’t shared parenting be supported?”  It turns out she’s the daughter of a divorced couple who did share parenting and she’s got some important ideas about the value it.

Here’s her piece in full.

Children deserve the very best from BOTH parents.  Parents have the Right to raise their children and make sure they are safe, educated, healthy and responsible.

If a parent of right mind understands the importance of both parents being equally involved with their children; then why wouldn’t that parent support it? 

False allegations and domestic violence are far too common.  And it happens by women and men, and now more than ever, the Family Courts turn the other cheek.

Alienation Of Your Children Is A Tough Thing To Deal With During The Holiday Season - This Holiday Season Give Thanks To God For What You Have. Don’t Dwell On What You Have Lost – We Owe It To Our Children To Forgive And Be Strong

As I sat at the Thanksgiving table this year listening to the blessing, I found myself saying a silent prayer for my children. 

I didn’t dwell on the fact that my children’s minds were taken from me by a mother that knows no boundaries.  I didn’t find myself dwelling on everything that I lost.  I didn’t find myself thinking of how unfair life is.  Instead I found myself giving thanks to God for everything that I have. 

Many of us are fighting to change the family court system and are trying to make things fairer so that both parents can have equal parenting time.   The unfortunate thing is that this may take many years.  Many of our children may no longer be children when this happens.  We will have missed out on the Thanksgivings and Christmases of their youth.

A Letter From Samantha Haas On Shared Parenting

Shared Parenting in New Hampshire. Why wouldn't it be Supported?

Tuesday, December 6, 2011 at 05:25PM

 

Children deserve the very best from BOTH parents.  Parents have the Right to raise their children and make sure they are safe, educated, healthy and responsible.

If a parent of right mind understands the importance of both parents being equally involved with their children; then why wouldn't that parent support it?

False allegations and domestic violence are far too common.  And it happens by women and men, and now more than ever, the Family Courts turn the other cheek.

In my experience as a daughter of parents who divorced and SHARED PARENTING; it is truly the most important decision you can make for your children.

Victory—In Face of Opposition, Leahy Scraps VAWA Draft Provision Which Lowers Evidence Standards - From The "Fathers And Families" Website

Victory—In Face of Opposition, Leahy Scraps VAWA Draft Provision Which Lowers Evidence Standards

November 16th, 2011 by Glenn Sacks, MA, Executive Director

False allegations of abuse are common in family court, and have been used to separate many fathers (and some mothers) from their children. The reasons for this problem are many, but one of the biggest is the low evidence standard for upholding abuse claims.

The common evidence standard for domestic violence restraining orders is “preponderance of the evidence,” often conceptualized as a mere 51/49% likelihood of guilt. By contrast, when someone seeks a civil restraining order, the more stringent and appropriate “clear and convincing” evidence standard is used.

In practice, this means that when neighbors Bob and Jim have a dispute over Bob’s dog eating Jim’s flowers, and Jim allegedly threatens to throw rocks at Bob’s dog, the courts demand that Bob provide solid evidence to support his claims of Jim’s threats. By stark contrast, if Bob’s wife decides to divorce him and seeks to throw him out of his house on a restraining order and cut him off from his kids, she has a much lower burden of proof on her claims.

OK Legislator Blasts Family Law System; F & F’s Gregory Tells Committee ‘We Need Shared Parenting’

November 8th, 2011 by Glenn Sacks, MA, Executive Director

An adult child of divorce, Rep. Jason Nelson criticized the courts for marginalizing his father.

Fathers and Families member Chris Gregory, a Marine combat veteran of Desert Storm and Somalia, recently told an Oklahoma House of Representatives committee that the family law system is rife with injustices and often separates children from the fathers they love and need.

Led by Representative Mark McCullough and Representative Jason Nelson, the Oklahoma House of Representatives conducted an interim study on family law and no fault divorce earlier this month. According to the legislators’ press release here, “Oklahoma’s family law is dangerously failing the children it is supposed to protect, leading some lawmakers to consider reform of both divorce statutes and the foster-care system.”

Who In The World Is Ed Mosca? - From The Website Of NH Corruption Watch

Who in the world is Ed Mosca?

Just who is Ed Mosca? Well, a quick glance at his caseload will reveal that he is not in very high demand as a lawyer. He typically handles N.H. Bar referrals of low-income litigants typically fighting for "big purses." He often works on contingency and a look into some of his motion practice, reveals that he is apparently not very intelligent.

One of his former clients reports that he "bailed out" at the last minute before a hearing, leaving the client "high and dry." This type of unethical behavior is evidently not uncharacteristic of Ed Mosca.
In another case, apparently Ed Mosca has engaged in unethical behavior that has put him on the hot-seat before a Family Court for alleged contempt practices and violations of the N.H. Professional Rules of Conduct.

Now, as counsel to the N.H. General Court, Ed Mosca has apparently brought his inane and disingenuous antics to the State House.

N.H. Corruption Watch will be keeping a close eye on Ed Mosca, and will be sharing its findings relative to his practices and conduct as information become available.

House Counsel Ed Mosca Arrives Unprepared, Abets judicial child abuse

The following letter was sent to the N.H. House Judiciary Committee  on Nov. 5, 2011 and was obtained by STOP Judicial Child Abuse investigators.

Apparently, house counsel Ed Mosca arrived unprepared to adequately advise the Judiciary Sub-committee at a hearing on Tues., Nov. 1, 2011 forcing the sub-committee to reconvene for another hearing approximately a month later - all while hundreds, if not thousands of children remain estranged from fit parents.

Read the letter below, reproduced in blue.

 

Nov. 5, 2011

Dear Honorable Judiciary Committee Representatives,

Below, I have prepared a quick research memorandum of law, which will hopefully answer your question as to whether a "marital master is a judicial officer under the N.H. Constitution."  I was present at the hearing this past week on HR7 and there seemed to be a problem extracting definitive answers from house counsel Edward Mosca.  He did not arrive prepared (no handouts, no answers, etc.) and brought no binding authority (case law, etc.).  I am merely a concerned citizen, bringing these answers to you.
