Arizona families are in peril. The contention driven from the separation of our families is further exacerbated by the often seen incompetence shown by some judicial officers. Mistakes are made and an appeal to correct the error(s) can be costly. Leaving the future of our families in the hands of just one person, who's influence has been and can be swayed, leads to lifelong suffering if the wrong custody arrangement is employed.
The first judge tasked to handle my divorce did so explicitly per title 25. We departed amicably.
The second judge, single handedly, devastated our family by involving a litany of "professionals" that derailed our intent to have a co-parenting arrangement. That judge, who's since been reassigned to the criminal division, has faced many complaints as she steamrolls over her judicial canons. Her inability to keep our case on track has resulted in tens of thousands of dollars diverted to inept social workers enacting bogus therapeutic intervention sessions, best interest attorneys prolonging status conferences, psychologists delaying evaluations and a slew of other appointees who's only motivation is their bottom line.
Juries will allow a broader and unbiased decision to be made and keeping Arizona families together will result in happier homes. Having the litigants provide the jurors will be much simpler with services available via videoconference that seems to be the norm these days. A hurried, bothered, busy and/or biased judge will not make a complete and fair decision. My family is proof of that! Please support this amendment and allow families to have a fair perspective in their family dynamics. A perspective not driven by greed.
