Testimony on SB 571 Rebuttable Presumption for Joint Legal Custody Family Law and Fathers' Rights Antics in Maryland The following is a portion of the written testimony I had submitted to the Maryland legislature for its hearing on Maryland Senate Bill 571, a proposal for a rebuttable presumption for joint legal custody. I must give profuse thanks to my friend and colleague, Liz, for the extensive material she gave to me regarding how joint custody is not in the best interests of women and children. The Children's Rights Council lobbied extensively in support of this bill, which failed Friday the 13th of March, 1998 a very prophetic date, at that. Joint custody, whether joint legal or joint physical, is not in the best interests of women and children. A rebuttable presumption for any form of joint custody will create additional work for an already clogged backlog of family law cases. Judges don't want these cases. They're time-consuming, expensive, and unnecessary. Most parents do not want joint custody. Each custody case should be reviewed individually. People should not be forced to fit into a preconceived mold, which is exactly what the rebuttable presumption for joint legal custody will do. With an award of joint legal custody, an award of joint physical custody usually follows. Recent studies have shown that both forms of joint custody have had detrimental effects on children. Joint custody has been promoted by fathers' rights groups so that noncustodial parents predominately fathers may lower or eliminate their child support orders. The use of joint custody guidelines to reduce or eliminate child support was very common all over the country. Some fathers' rights sites on the Internet specifically refer to joint custody as a means of lowering or eliminating child support. According to "Achieving Equal Justice For Men And Women In The Courts - The Draft Report of the Judicial Council Advisory Committee on Gender Bias In The Courts" [The California Gender Bias Report - 1990], Dr. Mary Duryea, director of Family Court services in the Alameda Superior Court stated the following:

Bringing Experts and Attorneys Together ExpertLaw ExpertLaw Library Family Law Fathers' Rights and Child Custody Law By Aaron Larson The Law Offices of Aaron Larson September, 2003 Contents Historical Context Goals of the Fathers' Rights Movement Responses to the Fathers' Rights Movement The "Father's Rights" Lawyer Historical Context Prior to the twentieth century, common law jurisdictions typically treated children as the property of the father, and thus following divorce the father would gain custody as a matter of course. With the development of psychological science over the twentieth century, most jurisdictions completely transformed this presumption of paternal custody, instead imposing the so-called "tender years" doctrine which held that absent extraordinary circumstances young children should always be placed in the custody of their mothers. As it became apparent that both of these models were fundamentally flawed - two sides of the same bad penny - a wide assortment of alternative models arose, each of which attempts to discern the custodial arrangement that is in the "best interests" of the children. Typically, these models include a presumption that the parent who served as the primary caregiver during a marriage should be the primary custodian following divorce.

I was in a 1 month relationship - after the relationship ended - the lady informed me that she was pregnant. I chose not to marry her - but intended to be a full part of my child's life. At the time we both lived in Florida. I would like to know what parental rights I have. If it was a perfect world my son would be living with me. I would like to know if, as a single dad, I can have any rights to visitation here at my home and what other rights I may have. I look forward to a response.
