I stumbled upon this searching for others like myself! I have the SAME EXACT problems with the same judge & circuit court & one judge in particular is under investigation right now. BLOWS MY MIND how the same judges have a pattern of behavior comitting crimes such as excluding cps reports when claims are made to the judge saying CPS said XYZ on a false accusation to change custody yet evidence proving that the accusation was a lie is not allowed?! CORRUPTION AT ITS FINEST!!
I would like to get in contact with all of you to discuss your cases so we can finally get justice & since as we know there are "immunities" & lawyers that say they can't sue blah blah blah WELL I found a way for us all to GET JUSTICE, get our money back PLUS & be able to make a change in the system to prevent this from happening again. I would love to hear from you all asap.

I too am a victim of the Third District Court. Specifically a victim of Judge Authur Lombard. (If you type in Judge Lombard my story should come up and another lady has written about him in the comments.) This is just tragic what happened to you and my heart and prayers go out to you and the others. Thank God for Ripoff Report to allow us to expose this. I posted my story after reading another Mothers cry from injustice due to this court system which included Judge Lombard.
Our custody battle began in early 2008 after my ex, his mother and sister moved and hid our 2 year old daughter from me because I got married to a good man. They said they didn't want another man around her. Eventually my husband and I found her. How? My ex had her over his girlfriends house (at the time) and he beat her up and she called the police and they arrested him and took our daughter to the police station as well. That's where my husband and I picked her up. Even though I did everything that Judge asked of us and my ex did nothing (which is expected from his nature) for some reason Lombard gave physical custody of our 2 1/2 year old daughter to my ex!
There was plenty of evidence against my ex from the very beginning of our case through-out the case. --Sex Offender 3rd Degree (registered for Life) --moving from house to house --not reporting his addresses to the registry --busted for selling drugs while living with another one of his girlfriends and her mother --driver license revoked --warrants --my husband and I both had PPO's on him --beating up girlfriends --my ex was incarcerated for a week which my lawyer found out, called me and his mother was keeping my child which she had to bring back to me and she didn't want to. . . Just to name a few. I'm not perfect but I don't have any type of record unlike my ex plus I was the ONLY one that took care of our daughters needs while he focused on partying. (I was 18 and he was 20 when we started dating and he gradually became abusive.
After I had our daughter, when I turned 19, God showed me a way out and I took it and changed my life for the better.) I'm a white lady and my ex is an African American. My husband is also African American (He's a very good man, husband as well as father and he loves his stepdaughter as his own and our biological son the same. We are his life. He also has a good career.) and we've been married going on 6 years this summer. Judge Lombard, my ex, his mother, sister and which ever girlfriend he has at the time took us through hell and the court systems has sucked us dry of any money we had. What do I think? I think Judge Lombard is Biased. He's far from honorable. The Courts are suppose to PROTECT US & OUR CHILDREN!! Instead they just take us for all we have and throw us and our children to the wolves! This makes me wonder what we needed a lawyer and Judge in the first place? None of this makes sense. The more stories I read the more I am convinced that the system has failed the people; they were put into place to protect! God Bless the people that have been done wrong. This is beyound sad that now you're going to be standing face to face with Judge Lombard to break your heart even further. Good Luck Ma'am. I'll be praying for you.

Ladies, it's not just you, some of us men are victimized by Judge Brennan, and I use the term "Judge" loosely. My ex-wife was violent towards myself and my 3 eldest children from a previous marriage, of whom I had sole physical custody of. Then came the stalking... Judge Brown heard the initial divorce case and after she stepped down from the bench, at least I think she did, my case was transferred to Brennan, whom at first, I thought was going to be as fair and impartial as the first judge...boy was I wrong!
Despite having successfully raising 3 children as a single father, having shared custody of my youngest child, raising 2 step children and caring for my current wife, who is now permanently disabled, will require extensive back surgeries, is being monitored for cancer and takes 40 pills per day for a severe seizure disorder, Brennan dismissed any and all evidence of me being a good and loving father/step father, of my ex-wife's abuse, neglect and stalking, and made me out to look like a bad guy!
I am an EMS worker and have been in public safety for 24 years, giving back to what ever community in which I live and even doing charitable work. But for some reason, Brennan and Wayne County FOC, seem to think that a mere 50k per year job is the same as what a rock star or Hollywood type makes.
I had a heart attack this past year and was advised that I probably should not be working in the stressful environment that is of Detroit EMS. (Being shot at and assaulted frequently, while servicing sick and injured patients.) So as a result of my heart attack, and my current wife's constant need to be monitored, I was backed into a corner and had to resign after 12 years of service with the City of Detroit.
She refused to hear any of my evidence of my health, nor would even acknowledge that my wife's health is in a constant state of decline, refused to hear about the abuse/neglect/stalking that was reported on my ex-wife, and was even dismissive when I advised her that I had been accepted into 2 courses that would increase my level of medical licensure and that I was preparing to enter a Bachelor's program in Emergency Management, which are all close to my residence, and once completed, would allow me to make better money so that I could better take care of my family's needs and be closer to home to care for my wife's medical needs.
I have to agree with everything that I have seen here about Brennan. She is incompetent, cruel, unkind, unjust, dismissive and volatile. It is obvious that she is corrupt and has not one iota what she is doing on the bench in regards to lives of the children or the families that love and care for them.
When I left her courtroom today, I was disgusted, sick to my stomach and completely sickened to how she just sat there and dismissed all that I said. (I am in pro per as I can not afford an attorney.) I told her, (Brennan) that if, "I was such a terrible father, that I would have fled the state years ago and dodged my parental duties. But I did not your honor, I stayed here, I worked and paid my support religiously all while trying to maintain my relationship with my children. Instead, my ex-wife has made it impossible to have that relationship with my children and she has flatly refused my access to them, has been unwilling to work things out so that visitation can occur."
After my brief tirade, I am frankly surprised that I was not found in contempt of court, but I was to such a point of frustration, that I let loose. Brennan then dismissed my objections and ordered that my support increase, despite the fact that I have very little income and that she ceased my visitation with these 3 children. What kind of monster is she!?

I am also a victim of the Wayne county family court system. Ironically, my case involves the law firm of Linda Souve and Michael Pendracki as well! It seems that this law firm uses the same agencies in all of their anti-mother campaigns, as well as the same scripted methods to victimize children and mothers, subjecting them to unjustified and costly programs....all with the same negative outcome. Why are they referring families in Wayne County to a facility/program in Canton (Livingston county)? It's my opinion that these attorneys are receiving a financial benefit ie; kickback, from these referrals. Additionally, the attorney for my ex husband violated my HIPAA rights repeatedly, and the judge allowed it. However the attorney objected to evidence that contradicted hIs bogus and ridiculous claims, and Judge Charlene Elder granted the motion to exclude CPS reports, which absolved me of abuse, ignored testimony from a 30+ year police officer about my ex's bizarre and ridiculous behavior, and upheld a motion by my ex, despite clear medical evidence that the motion contained outright lies, by my ex and his attorney. My 15 year old daughter has subsequently missed 96 days of school, and failed 9th grade, in the custody of my ex husband, who by his own admission in court, travels on business more than 50% of each month! This court system victimizes the very people it is supposed to protect.

Hey, Johnny Cocokran was a criminal defense attorney, and not in family law I have three attorneys in my immediate family. If you don't think for one split second that race matters in court hearings.... you are lost. Let Johnny RIP!

Jonnny got O.J. off, which should have been impossible. This 'case' sounds like it should have been a slam-dunk for Johnny....... 1/2 hour of his time, no more. Get some P.R. help. Enough heat will bring most things to a boil.
