False Restraining Orders and SLAPP

I recently found an interesting new video on YouTube. The video is by a gentleman who owns the website DaddyJustice.com and and I wanted to mention him because after six and a half years and four-hundred thousand dollars, he has managed to attain something that is almost unheard of in the Divorce Industry. He was able to get a perjury conviction against a woman who had mothered his child, and you had made numerous false accusations against him. The website is DaddyJustice.com and he has an interesting series of videos on there where he chronicles all of his trials and tribulations.
Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to legally refute false accusations made against a partner in a divorce or custody case? I’m referring to something called SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation). Wikipedia.com’s definition of SLAPP is: “a lawsuit or a threat of lawsuit that is intended to intimidate and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition. Winning the lawsuit is not necessarily the intent of the person filing the SLAPP. The plaintiff's goals are accomplished if the defendant succumbs to fear, intimidation, mounting legal costs or simple exhaustion and abandons the criticism. A SLAPP may also intimidate others from participating in the debate.”
Originally, SLAPP was created by the California legislature to solve an issue that arose between environmentalists and logging companies. The logging companies would attempt to silence the environmentalists by suing them repeatedly with their unlimited funding, thereby wrapping the environmentalists up in court battles. So the legislature put in place this SLAPP provision so that the logging companies could not use lawsuits to try to silence their opposition.
That very same process is now being twisted and used by the divorce industry to prevent a defendant in a divorce case from filing a perjury charge against their ex, as long as the ex-spouse believes (or states they believe) that they have good reason for their claims. So what it boils down to is that in a divorce, one person can claim whatever they want against the other person as long as they say they have a reason to believe it is true. Never mind that my due process rights are violated, and that I’m not allowed to countersue for perjury. The real kicker comes when you have actually violated SLAPP rights. Then you get to pay for your accuser’s attorney.
Basically, the problem with SLAPP is that it was originally conceived for a valuable and noble purpose, and now it has been perverted in order to suppress the rights of individuals during divorce proceedings.
This is just one of the reasons why restraining orders are so tough to beat; and more evidence about how insidious the Divorce Industry is. They are willfully allowing liars to file false charges in order to separate children from their own fathers.
