Calling Pager is DV in New Jersey

warble writes ""In a 5-0 decision, the court said even a fit father with joint custody and liberal visitation rights does not have an automatic right to know the whereabouts of his child....Cynthia Sacharow accused him [her husband] of domestic violence because he repeatedly called her pager. She said he was harassing and stalking her, acts considered domestic violence under New Jersey law...." Gees. This basically says it all. A father can be fit, reputable, have visitation rights and it can be lost if he calls an x-wife's pager too many times in an attempt to visit a child. To qualify all a woman must do in New Jersey is call the police and report to a domestic violence (DV) shelter. If anybody still doubts that DV shelters are actually family destructions units they must be out-of-their-friggin minds!"
