CT LAW TRIBUNE SUGGESTS WE NEED A BETTER WAY TO SUE THE STATE!
CT Law Tribune speaks out about suing the state as follows:
"The Charla Nash case brought national attention to Connecticut's bizarre process for suing the state. Nash was the victim of a brutal attack by a friend's chimpanzee. She suffered horrific injuries and underwent a face transplant along with multiple surgeries that cost millions of dollars. Nash sought to sue the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection on the theory that state officials knew that the chimpanzee was dangerous and should not have allowed Nash's friend, Sandra Herold, to keep it in her Stamford home.
It appears rather dubious that the state was, in fact, responsible for Nash's injuries. But that question was never answered by a court of law.
The process for suing the state for money damages in Connecticut is unique and that process was front and center in the Nash case. At common law, the state cannot be sued by one of its citizens without its consent. This principle of "sovereign immunity" routinely has been applied by Connecticut courts to shield the state from liability. Bill Barrante, the late long-time managing editor of the "Connecticut Bar Journal," authored a compelling article in 2005 entitled "Common-Law Sovereign Immunity: Why Connecticut Never Really Had It," in which he explained why this application of sovereign immunity might have been the result of an analytical misstep. However, "sovereign immunity" is the law of the land and continues to be applied to bar lawsuits filed against the state. For claims involving money damages, litigants must first obtain a waiver of sovereign immunity from the claims commissioner or the legislature."

NEW YORK BRANCH OF AFCC UNDER INVESTIGATION BY IRS: ANNE STEVENSON REPORTING!
This news in from investigative reporter Anne Stevenson. See below:
"NEW YORK, June 17, 2014 — The IRS has revoked the tax exempt status of a New York corporation founded and operated by sitting family court judges and the professionals who appear before them for failure to comply with federal tax laws.
This is just the latest string of punitive actions authorities have taken over the years against the national trade association whose members oversee cases involving the State’s most vulnerable children and families. Legal industry professionals are now asking questions about whether the authorities should do more to protect families from sub-regulatory corporations, and whether or not a bigger cover up is afoot?"

THE BOSTON GLOBE REPORTS JUSTINA PELLETIER SPENT FATHER'S DAY WITH HER DAD!
The Boston Globe reports, "A Connecticut teenager at the center of a 16-month custody battle involving the Massachusetts child protection agency was allowed to spend Father’s Day at home without any state supervision, a sign that her parents may be on the brink of getting full custody of her. “She came home, and we did a barbecue,” Lou Pelletier, her father, said in a telephone interview Sunday night from the family’s West Hartford home.

THE CT LAW TRIBUNE CONTRIBUTES ITS TWO CENTS TO THE GAL DEBATE!
In an recent editorial, the CT Law Tribune states the following:
"By now, everyone is fully aware of the ongoing debate over guardians ad litem, attorneys for minor children, and the various criticisms of judges and virtually all of the legal professionals involved in contested divorce and family matters involving children. In the legislature, bills have been passed. In the Superior Court Rules Committee, changes to the Practice Book are being drafted. Yet amidst all of this newly minted "procedure," the essential question to be answered in every contested family matter involving a child remains the same: What is in the best interest of the child?"
