The Round Up can't tell whether the judges were taking it easy on their last vacation of the summer months or getting ready to send the kids off to school. Regardless, it was a slow few weeks at the Court of Appeals. There is just...
In a crazy week at the Court of Appeals, the Round Up reminds readers that nothing is predictable in Family Law. Up is down. Down is up. Mandatory doesn't mean mandatory and joint custody doesn't really mean joint -- if you don't want it to...
The three family law cases from the Court of Appeals from the week of July 19 run the gamut again. We are starting with a five star neglect and abuse case that is a must-read, followed by some more routine cases to round us out...
