​The Child Custody Act​

aka "Damon's Act"

Picture


The Child Custody Act will effectively end the Custody Crisis by implementing a new system that provides due process for parents and protection for children.

Main reforms are: custody cases are heard in a regular civil court with a jury, no court-appointed professionals and the best interest of the children standard is defined and codified.

Characteristics of Child Custody Courts
  • Custody cases heard in regular civil court
  • Right to a jury trial
  • Right to a speedy trial
  • Videotaped forensic interview of children ​​​​
  • Children may testify by closed circuit TV​
  • Parents may hire experts to testify​
  • All law enforcement and forensic interviewer evidence admissible​​
  • Primary attachment figure retains temporary primary custody until jury verdict 
  • No mandatory or recommending mediation
  • No court-appointed evaluators, children’s attorneys, mediators, psychologists
  • No social services involvement until and unless jury finds both parents abusive​
After trial:
  • Jury decides 1) who is primary parent and 2) whether either parent is abusive
  • Primary parent gets primary custody; other parent regular visitation
  • Visits with physically abusive parent supervised 
  • No contact with a sexually abusive parent
  • Judge may not exclude important evidence, issue gag orders or overrule jury verdict
  • Database documenting outcomes​

Women must unite as a class to demand the "Child Custody Court Act" be enacted, as there'll be tremendous resistance to a reform which reduces men's power in the family.

"Damon's Law" is named after a brave boy
who was forced into the sole custody of his sexually abusive father
despite his mother's tireless efforts to protect him in Family Court.
Details of his case are at SavingDamon.com.

If you are interested in helping establish Damon's Act in your state,
​contact the Coalition.

NOTE OF CAUTION

NOTE:  The reforms detailed in the Child Custody Act must not be used in part. Every reform in the Child Custody Act is necessary to end the crisis. Anything less will allow for loopholes which will enable judges to spin cases to the father.
