The classic bait and switch, if you will. <BR/><BR/>This is why I originally thought I would have my son back within a few weeks without needing a lawyer - it's very easy to prove you're not homeless, but much harder to prove that your artwork does not "degrade family values" as Judge Adams (the second judge to get involved after Judge Punch recused himself) put it in his recent decision, which is under appeal now.<BR/><BR/>If anyone has any questions or anything, feel free to email me - I've been forbidden to update my own blog by a court order and so can only update people one at a time by email or commenting on other blogs.Rachel Bevilacquahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04770741325859461496noreply@blogger.com
