We always scream about legislating from the bench, yet this judge was just interpreting law that was enacted by the people of the state for which he serves. The people at fault here are the two ladies and the idiots that enacted this law. I too would support this lady in civil disobedience, but you can't blame the judge. He's bound by the legislature's actions as long as they don't run contrary to the state's constitution.
The judge was "interpreting law" by completely disregarding the interests of the child and giving full legal custody to a dike ex-partner who the child didn't even know? It was a completely subjective, illogical and arbitrary decision that had nothing to do with any strict interpretation of law.
Exactly. Now that the shoe is on the other foot and this woman and her child are victim’s of a bad law, people here want the judge to create laws from thin air from the bench. I don’t want judicial activism from our side or from theirs. Judges uphold the law, period. Blame the legislators for allowing homosexual marriage, not the judge for simply following the law.
Many here are letting their emotions fry their brain cells. Or I suppose we can just go with complete lawlessness and I will cut up my vehicle license since that is a bad law as well. I will quit paying half my taxes, since half of it goes to unconstitutional purposes.
