This reader-friendly narrative pinpoints several chilling pitfalls in the legal system for family separation and divorce. It is based on a real life event in Australia, and reveals what can happen wherever the no-fault system of Family Law operates. Facts are used to provide a rich sense of the law in action and to question faith in no-fault judicial systems, especially when hypergamy and Sociopathy are present. This book lays bare how personality disorders interact withlax judicial systems for shockingly unfair outcomes.The narrative exposes how unethical lawyers and partners can abuse loose legal processes inherent in the no-fault basis to heap suffering on already traumatised opponents. Also explained is why casual approaches and rule-of-thumb decisionscan deliver a justice unworthy of the name. Life-changing outcomes are controlled by defective judicial processes - making much-needed fairness a condition in short supply at a time of major life crisis. Cutting through the clutter exposes chronic weaknesses in the no-fault system, and brings to light the reforms needed for real justice.The behavioural traits identified in this book make the narrative an abundant source of information for a case study on Sociopathy and related personality disorders.Packed with deep insight, this book is a must-read for every citizen with a social conscience. It would be of particular value to those wanting to be alerted to lurking perils in no-fault Family Court processes. The information would also be useful to relevant legal practitioners, teachers and students of law and psychology looking for case material, politicians and bureaucrats wanting an original angle, and social reformers searching for solutions.The author is a social scientist, former chair professor and professional analyst. This is an award-winning author with five books on different subjects and many journal articles, whose wealth of knowledge and experience brings vivid perspectiveto the poignant analysis that lucidly unravels for shock and amazement.

A devastating account of how Australia’s family courts fail children, families and victims of domestic abuse The family courts intimately affect the lives of those who come before them. Judges can decide where you are allowed to live and work, which school your child can attend and whether you are even permitted to see your child. Lawyers can interrogate every aspect of your personal life during cross-examination, and argue whether or not you are fit to be a parent. Broken explores the complexities and failures of Australia’s family courts through the stories of children and parents whose lives have been shattered by them. Camilla Nelson and Catharine Lumby take the reader into the back rooms of the system to show what it feels like to be caught up in spirals of abusive litigation. They reveal how the courts have been politicised by Pauline Hanson and men’s rights groups, and how those they are meant to protect most – children – are silenced or treated as property. Exploring the legal culture, gender politics and financial incentives that drive the system, Broken reveals how the family courts – despite the high ideals on which they were founded – have turned into the worst possible place for vulnerable families and children. Camilla Nelson is an associate professor in media at the University of Notre Dame Australia. A former Walkley Award winner, her writing has appeared in The Conversation, The Independent, Guardian Australia, Mamamia, Marie Claire and the ABC. Broken is her fifth book. Catharine Lumby is a media professor at the University of Sydney. She has a law degree, is the author of six books and has written for The Guardian, The Sydney Morning Herald, ABC-TV and The Bulletin. 'What happens to kids in our family law system should be a national scandal – and yet, so few people know about it. This book finally lifts the lid on this broken system, and shows how this once-great institution now regularly orders children to see or live with dangerous parents, and bankrupts the victim-parents trying to protect them. An urgent call to action.'—Jess Hill, author of See What You Made Me Do 'This searing review of Australia’s family court system is in turns heartbreaking and enraging. Drawing on recent cases and interviews, it shows how family violence continues to be misunderstood and how violent perpetrators are able to manipulate the legal system. It reveals that too often children are not heard, sometimes with devastating outcomes. This book is an urgent appeal: we must do better.'—Professor Heather Douglas, author of Women, Intimate Partner Violence and the Law

This review was commissioned by the Attorney-General to examine the practices, procedures and laws that apply in the federal family law courts in the context of family violence, and whether improvements could be made to ensure that the best possible support is provided to families who have experienced or are at risk of violence. This report presents the author's recommendations from the review, and discusses the review's findings on issues including facilitating and acting upon the disclosure of violence, and the experience of the 2006 amendment legislation and the 2003 Hull Committee recommendations in practice. The recommendations focus on promoting an understanding of family law among judicial officers, promoting risk identification and assessment in all cases, resourcing, and the best interest of the child.

A sitting justice reflects upon the authority of the Supreme CourtÑhow that authority was gained and how measures to restructure the Court could undermine both the Court and the constitutional system of checks and balances that depends on it. A growing chorus of officials and commentators argues that the Supreme Court has become too political. On this view the confirmation process is just an exercise in partisan agenda-setting, and the jurists are no more than Òpoliticians in robesÓÑtheir ostensibly neutral judicial philosophies mere camouflage for conservative or liberal convictions. Stephen Breyer, drawing upon his experience as a Supreme Court justice, sounds a cautionary note. Mindful of the CourtÕs history, he suggests that the judiciaryÕs hard-won authority could be marred by reforms premised on the assumption of ideological bias. Having, as Hamilton observed, Òno influence over either the sword or the purse,Ó the Court earned its authority by making decisions that have, over time, increased the publicÕs trust. If public trust is now in decline, one part of the solution is to promote better understandings of how the judiciary actually works: how judges adhere to their oaths and how they try to avoid considerations of politics and popularity. Breyer warns that political intervention could itself further erode public trust. Without the publicÕs trust, the Court would no longer be able to act as a check on the other branches of government or as a guarantor of the rule of law, risking serious harm to our constitutional system.

Domestic abuse is a national emergency: one in four Australian women has experienced violence from a man she was intimate with. But too often we ask the wrong question: why didn’t she leave? We should be asking: why did he do it? Investigative journalist Jess Hill puts perpetrators – and the systems that enable them – in the spotlight. See What You Made Me Do is a deep dive into the abuse so many women and children experience – abuse that is often reinforced by the justice system they trust to protect them. Critically, it shows that we can drastically reduce domestic violence – not in generations to come, but today. Combining forensic research with riveting storytelling, See What You Made Me Do radically rethinks how to confront the national crisis of fear and abuse in our homes. ‘A shattering book: clear-headed and meticulous, driving always at the truth’—Helen Garner ‘One Australian a week is dying as a result of domestic abuse. If that was terrorism, we’d have armed guards on every corner.’ —Jimmy Barnes ‘Confronting in its honesty this book challenges you to keep reading no matter how uncomfortable it is to face the profound rawness of people’s stories. Such a well written book and so well researched. See What You Made Me Do sheds new light on this complex issue that affects so many of us.’—Rosie Batty
