The Cost of Reversing Roe v Wade

Often this topic gets shoehorned into a partisan argument: pro-life Republicans versus pro-choice Democrats. But I want to bring in a perspective that transcends politics: financial freedom.

| | Update: Minor Arrested After Asking Security Guard How To Load His New Handgun | Charged As An Adult | A 19 year old teen from Pasadena is being charged with a handgun violation after he displayed the weapon to a security guard at the All Care Treatment Center, in the 500 block of Crain Highway. According to Anne Arundel County Police, Matthew Petree, who is being charged as an adult, approached the security guard the morning of 9/10, asking questions about how to load ammo and use the gun. The suspect then allegedly got into a car and left with the handgun.

The quick thinking security guard alerted Anne Arundel County Police who responded at approximately 7:15 AM to conduct an investigation. The police were able to identify the vehicle and locate the driver who was arrested and charged with possession of a handgun by a minor. Anne Arundel County Police say the gun was not loaded, didn't have the firing pin, and the suspect did not have any ammunition.

Question: Is the family court learning from past mistakes?
Answer: NO

The recent ruling by the court of appeal, in Re S (Parental Alienation: Cult) [2020] EWCA Civ 568, is the culmination of a recent line of similar cases which began on the 28th March 2019 with Re: L (A child) [2019] EWHC 867 (Fam). In Re S the Court of Appeal appears to have consolidated some of these earlier findings besides giving a clear steer on how cases involving parental alienation should be handled.

Much of the guidance given by the Court of Appeal appears to be the tail end of the long reverberating echo of similar advice given by Munby J (as he was then) in F v M in the matter of D (Management of intractable contact cases) [2004] EWHC 727 (Fam) as much as 16 years ago. It is remarkable that senior judges are still stating in earnest how PA cases should be handled in spite of firm advice from the ECHR in Pisica v Moldova (Application No 23641/17) 29 October 2019, where a mother was deprived of contact despite five years of proceedings during which she had obtained orders for the children to live with her. The ECHR advised that, in cases involving PA, the courts are under a duty to ‘…exercise exceptional diligence.’

When one sees the lamentable outcomes of cases like the recent example of Re A (Children) (Parental Alienation) [2019] EWFC B56 (HHJ Wildblood QC) - (8 years of proceedings, 36 hearings, 10 professionals, no contact despite an attempted change of residence) - and the re-repetition in Re S of advice given 16 years ago in (F v M), there does appear to be a faulty connection between courts above circuit level and those beneath it.

In this series of articles I will explore reasons why PA is perceived differently to other forms on non - accidental harm to children. I will also explore the reasons why the development of precedent has been stultified in private family law. I will also suggest means of overcoming these problems in order for family law to adapt, evolve and protect children effectively.
