FAMILY LAW IN THE 21ST CENTURY, divorce, child support, parenting time, custody and stuff.
I recieved a card promoting this event but placed it on the corner of my desk that I keep for wishful thinking. I had a scheduled hearing in conflict with the June 16-17 date of the event. Located in Lansing on the campus of Michigan State University College of Law I was interested.
Mid week my conflict left and I reached out to go hastely sending in my lonely $100 bucks.
The program talked of a reception and dinner the night before, we made inquiry and were given the location and time. This I attended.
The promo stated “ The first decade of the 21st century has been an exciting time for Family Law Scholars, Teachers and Practitioners.” I believe I was the only current practitioner.( lab rat). The Professors I am sure had extensive practice expierence before assending the Ivry Tower.
Justice Marilyn Kelly was the keynote speaker at lunch on Friday the program day. How could I not go, the holy grail of Michigan Family Law intelligence was speaking. I am moitivated to protect the fatherhood rights of putative fathers. Her presentation was motivating.
But back to the Thursday reception. We dined at Michells Fish Market in a location called East Gate(?). I thought I was in a new commercial development in Atlanta Ga. It sure did not look like Flint to me.( Yest it was Lansing).
What I was at was the preconference reception for the presenters, I think I basically crashed it. I am told I did not. But I think the are just being polite.
The program facilitators were very gracious and made me feel at home and welcome. I had the time of my life. I was able to engage in a level of conversation that is usually fleeting for me. In the end though they were the scientists and I was the lab rat. Scholarly law professors toying with a court house practice family law lawyer from violence & depression ridden Flint MI. I thank everyone for the great time.
The last time I was in the MSU Law Library was when I debated Profesor Bitinski on the use of force and child protective proceeding. I took the side of parents being able to beat disobedience out of the little miscreants. It was sponsored by the Federalist Society. I was in unfriendly territory but had my usual good time.Did I tell you I am from Flint MI the most violent city in America and was a 5th Army Drill Sergeant! Bring it on. After all life is to short not to.
The dinner was great I ordered clam chowder, steak and key lime pie. I prattled on so much, I am a talkative lab rat, that I finished only ½ of the best steak I will have this year. Just where were my priorities.
Interesting discussion on the rights of putative fathers. Combining this with the presentation of Justice Kelly my awarness of this travisty of justice in Family Law was enhanced. The Consortium, a room full of law school professors, went well. The presentations were broken up into panels.
