American Law Institute Urges States to Update Their Family Law

WASHINGTON — The American Law Institute, an influential group of lawyers and judges, has recommended extensive changes in family law that would increase alimony and property rights for divorced women, while extending such rights to domestic partners, both heterosexual and gay. The report seeks to update family law to reflect changes in society over the last 30 years, and make it more predictable and consistent.

This is nothing more than an attempt to further inflate the multi-billion dollar ‘golden goose’ called ‘Family Law’. I find it interesting to note that the backers of the bill are not women’s or children’s rights organizations but the judges and lawyers who stand to reap millions more in the additional litigation bred by the passage of this bill.

As public awareness of the corruptness that engulfs the system of family law in this country continues to increase, lawyers, judges and legislators who think they have found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow will find themselves, instead, identified as what they are. Thieves and riff-raff who live on the blood of the dying liberty of what was once a great nation.
