Supreme Court of
Kentucky
Judge Bill Cunningham
http://www.judgecunningham.com/ was kind enough not only
to speak, but to listen at one of our FATHERS meetings when he addressed our
members. He expressed sincere concern as our members expressed their
concerns and complaints regarding the family court system, EPOs and DVOs,
mismanaged child support, and the general bias that face many single fathers
simply trying to maintain a meaningful active relationship with their
children.
I believe Judge Cunningham is well connected to the average
hard working parent struggling to make ends meet and hoping to raise their
children to a higher standard of living. I believe Judge Cunningham will
bring a sense of competence, justice, and fairness that will bring honor to
the highest court in this wonderful state we call our home.
Appellate Court Judge Rick Johnson
http://www.johnsonforjustice.org/ has also been kind
enough to speak at one of our FATHERS meetings. I did not sense a feeling of
connection from Judge Johnson with our members as we expressed our concerns,
but rather a feeling that our members had brought our misfortune on
ourselves. He defended the current system as well as McCracken County Family
Court Judge Cynthia Sanderson and her rulings. His appellate court has stood
firmly behind Judge Sanderson and failed to work to correct the injustices
of her biased rulings that are hurting our children as well as our families.
Instead of holding the many judges spread out across the state to one
standard of justice, each individual judge has been allowed to rule as they
please without worry of being held in check by successful appeals, (the
failed duty of the current appellate court).
Judge Johnson is apparently running his election campaign
with the same lack of authority, and inattention to detail as he has shown
in the appellate court, as is evidenced by the smear tactics being used on
his opponent. Just one example of this lack of leadership and lack of
control in his appellate court is shown in one of our member’s stories, (Dee
Gordy), as his office referred to Dee as a sob story in an inappropriate
email as is listed in her story and highlighted, (following link).

When one of our members recently contacted Judge Johnson’s
appellate court seeking the proper procedure to file an appeal of a DVO that
had been issued against them they were told “hire a lawyer”, just one more
example of the “buddy-buddy“, “You scratch my back I’ll scratch yours”
attitude of lawyer watching out for lawyer.
Why would we want to elevate this type of behavior to the highest court in
the land??? |
