Recently I discovered interesting development on YouTube. The video is by a gentleman who owns the website DaddyJustice.com and I wanted to let everyone know about him because despite his lengthy and expensive legal battle, he has managed to get something that is almost impossible to achieve in the divorce field. That is, he managed to win a perjury conviction over the mother of his child; a woman who had lied about his actions from the very beginning. Again, his website is DaddyJustice.com, and he has a great series of videos on the site which details his difficult but extraordinary journey.
Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to legally refute false accusations made against a partner in a divorce or custody case? I’m referring to something called SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation). The Wikipedia definition of SLAPP is: “a lawsuit or a threat of lawsuit that is intended to intimidate and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition. Winning the lawsuit is not necessarily the intent of the person filing the SLAPP. The plaintiff's goals are accomplished if the defendant succumbs to fear, intimidation, mounting legal costs or simple exhaustion and abandons the criticism. A SLAPP may also intimidate others from participating in the debate."
The California legislature originally created SLAPP to solve a problem arising between environmentalists and logging companies. The environmentalists wanted to file suit against the logging companies, but the logging companies with their unlimited funding and resources would simply file lawsuit upon lawsuit on the environmentalists to try to wear them down. So the legislature put in place this SLAPP provision so that the logging companies could not use lawsuits to try to silence their opposition.
Now, the divorce industry has perverted that process and said that in the case of divorce, the defendant could not file a perjury charge against their ex-spouse if they had a reasonable basis to feel that their charges were correct. So what it boils down to is that in a divorce, one person can claim whatever they want against the other person as long as they say they have a reason to believe it is true. Never mind that my due process rights are violated, and that I’m not allowed to countersue for perjury. The real kicker is that if I was found to have violated her SLAPP rights, I would be responsible for paying her attorney’s fees. And who decides if her charges have a reasonable basis? The judge, who is also part of the Divorce Industry.
Basically, the problem with SLAPP is that it was originally conceived for a valuable and noble purpose, and now it has been perverted in order to suppress the rights of individuals during divorce proceedings.
This is just one of the reasons why restraining orders are so tough to beat; and more evidence about how insidious the Divorce Industry is. They are willfully allowing liars to file false charges in order to separate children from their own fathers.
