The Bohol Standard Online Edition:
I have been a neutral observer of the ongoing saga involving Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona. Tomorrow is the start of a rather long and tedious, and could be damning, impeachment trial. This trial will be publicized and will be watched by millions of Filipinos here and abroad.

Young suspects' court time, outcomes similar to adults - herald-mail.com:
"Whether caught egging a house or robbing a convenience store, minors who find themselves in front of a juvenile court judge face civil rather than criminal proceedings, although there sometimes is little difference in the outcome."

Retained Bill Recommendation Overturned on the Floor of House-NH
Retained Bill Recommendation Overturned on the Floor of House
Should accused parents have a right to see all evidence being used against them in decisions in Family Courts? A 12-1 Child and Family Law Committee recommendation to kill a bill guaranteeing that a parent accused of wrong doing before the Family Courts will in all cases have access to all evidence for and against them, including third party evidence in the possession of state agencies, was overturned on the floor of the New Hampshire House this past Wednesday. This may be the beginning of the end of the abuse of parent's right based on the subjective, frequently abusive, and arbitrarily applied "best interests of the child."
The bill, HB 415, was brought in by this Representative last year because in at least two clear cases before the Family Court fathers had been denied access to the evidence against them. One was an alleged sealed envelope accusation that seriously affected a father's custody and diminished to a miniscule amount the time he would be able to see his daughter. The other was the withholding of exculpatory evidence that would have benefited a falsely accused father and rebuffed efforts to separate him from his daughters. The fathers in both cases had apparently requested the information repeatedly and were denied it.
Witnesses from the Division of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) were reported to have told the Child and Family Law Committee that all a father had to do was go to court and the court could decide whether it was in the best interests of the child to have the fathers denied their natural and Constitutional rights to all such materials. An attorney who handles many such cases said that he had never seen the courts go against the wishes of DCYF in such a case. In a ringing repudiation of the Committee's decision a significant majority of the House, who clearly believed that parent's rights must carry at least as much weight as those of children, passed this much needed legislation and sent it on for review by the Constitutional Law and Statutory Review Committee.

NH families are losing their homes thanks to mortgage and foreclosure fraud
Dear Unhappy Grammy,
This may be a bit off topic but it's a very important matter: NH families are losing their homes thanks to mortgage and foreclosure fraud. Robosigners, MERs issues, problems with the chain of mortgage are some of the issues that end up causing NH families stress and the loss of the roof over their heads. There is a particular business entity who has been under the Massachusetts Attorney General's scrutiny for illegal foreclosure: Harmon Law Offices has been selling many homes in NH, RI and in MA. And although the Massachusetts Attorney General is scrutinizing Harmon's "practices," people of NH are getting responses from the NH Attorney General's office that "this matter is not within our jurisdiction" when requesting help to prevent the illegal foreclosure of their home in NH.
Thankfully Rep. Timothy Comerford has stepped up to the plate and helped a NH resident who was being illegally foreclosed upon by Harmon Law Offices. Please post this very informative YOU TUBE video from King Cast, which explains how a NH resident gets to keep her home after all of the foreclosure fraud dished out by Harmon Law Offices and the lender.

If anyone else is having mortgage fraud or foreclosure fraud issues, please respond to this blog post and please include your email with your response. Families in NH and MA want to offer some guidance regarding this matter! And, we want to collect the information from this blog and bring it to the attention of the NH Attorney General's office. And, if the NH attorney general still claims that it's not within their jurisdiction, then we'll take it elsewhere! Thank you for posting this~On behalf of NH Victims of Foreclosure Fraud.
