Governor Davis' Executive Order on Paternity Fraud

warble writes "As we all know, Governor Davis vetoed AB2240 last year and claimed he was doing this because the bill was flawed. That was a very disappointing event in the men’s movement. However, NCFM, LA is made up of winners, and winners will always find a way to turn a failure into a success.
So NCFM, LA examined the veto and determined that there was an Executive Order in place. Then we made some phone calls and sent in a FAX asking about the Executive Order. The order in effect directed the Department of Child Support Services to work with the proponents and opponents of paternity fraud to reach a resolution to the issue. To our surprise we received a phone call from the DCSS and they are demonstrating a literal commitment to resolving this issue. It turns out that the DCSS representative is very friendly to men's issues in the matter of paternity fraud. To our surprise, we are finding that the DCSS wants fairness in paternity fraud issues!" There's much more to this post, see the Read More section below for more info.

"Also, I've been very careful to gather physical evidence and proof of each and every claim. This involves going to paternity fraud victims and obtaining a trail of documents and very personal information. The result is that we should be able to introduce language next week to start a new bill.

Next, it should be clear that NCFM is changing the strategy on this complex issue to resolve the problem of paternity fraud through incremental legislation. We will explain more about why that change is being made at a future date. After all, we need to keep some secrets from the radical feminists.

In a nutshell, we are changing our strategy because there have been several years of failed attempts at paternity fraud legislation in California. What we need are incremental successes. We believe that if there is a failure that it is because the issue was incorrectly framed.

The fact of the matter is that the public wants a resolution to paternity fraud. There is also overwhelming support in the California Legislature for a resolution. Now, for the first time, we have the overwhelming support of the Executive Branch of the California Government. All we need to do is change our strategy and move forward. By doing this we should experience success.

As noted, NCFM, LA has examined the political failures and determined they were mostly due to what we believe are strategic errors in trying to resolve the complex issue. The proponents (men’s activists) were simply trying to change a very serious problem too fast! The fear was that there would be a resulting chaos. That fear is quite well founded because NCFM, LA believes that about 7 million children have the wrong father assigned as the parent. Making major changes in the paternity laws would almost certainly overload the courts and potentially throw the system into chaos.

Finally, if any paternity fraud victims in California want to help us strengthen our case then please contact NCFM, LA. We will be asking you to submit copies of the documents that prove there is paternity fraud.

Most important: If there are any family law or criminal law attorneys in California that would like to assist us as we move forward in crafting the legislation then please contact us. We will appreciate your support!
