Court of Queen's Bench

Have a family law matter? If you're a non-custodial parent, the only thing they care about is money. You'll first be ordered to pay MEP a percentage of your take home pay based on line 150 of your tax return. You pay the tax on that money and it isn't considered income to the other party. The Feds call this "tax neutral". As your former partner will know the income thresholds for child tax benefits, subsidies, etc. this provides them with the flexibility to manage their income and maximize child benefits. As you and your former partner will want to enroll your child into extracurricular activities, the costs are split proportionally based on line 150 of your income tax returns. As this is based on employment income only, you'll likely pay the majority of the costs of extracurricular expenses even when the other party's net monthly cash flow is higher. Once you're registered with the MEP program the system then has in place effective ways to dispose of you. For example, there are easy to obtain exclusive Possession Orders and restraining orders that effectively muzzle you and crush you financially. As the non-custodial parent, you'll also notice that the judges want you to play an "active" part of your child's life (just not too active). As the child support formula assumes you've abandoned your child there is no recognition given for your own financial contribution to your child's living expenses and no adjustment to child support or government benefits available to non-custodial parents. You'll notice that the mainstream media outlets only report on the massive amount of arrears owed by non-custodial parents. They never report that non-custodial parents receive no recognition as a parent by any level of government nor do they ever share with the the public that the calculation behind the federal child support formula assumes you've abandoned your child. Here are a few of the Justices you may interact with and some observations.. Clackson - If you see him in morning chambers ask to adjourn. He will make a decision based on lies and cries. His hairpiece may look like a sleepy muskrat, however he is definitely not as relaxed and laid back as that hair. Ouellette - He is a pretty smart guy. He reads all the materials and explains his decisions. He shows compassion and treats SRL's with respect. It's a good day if you get him. Shelley - Doesn’t listen to either parties or read any materials. Often looks like she got called in at the last minute to fill her shift. Everything depends on her mood of the day and she'll have no problem feeding you to the wolves if it's a bad day. Mandersheid - Grumpy old guy who looks like he'd be a cool uncle to go fishing with but not the judge you want hearing your case. He's not as gender biased as Clackson and seems to want to be fair yet not exactly a champion for equal shared parenting. Browne - She’s middle of the road and shows a very slight gender bias. She always has the sniffles and seems to make her decisions based on a coin toss. Germaine - He is similar in nature to Clackson but without the Muskrat. He must need a hearing aid as he only hears one side of a story. Marceau - He has the same hearing issues as some of the others. He may have no idea what the facts are but at least he's somewhat friendly. Feehan - He's the new kid on the block and seems to show some compassion. A promising newcomer. ACJ Rooke - He seems to be mellowing out lately and is more accepting of Self Represented Litigants. The court clerks are generally accommodating and helpful. Considering the volume of files they deal with they deserve more recognition for the role they play in keeping everything on track.

Unable to pay a garnishment at this location because the case was presented in Calgary. It's payable to the Government of Alberta; this is godd*mn ludicrous.

Queens bench family court is the most crooked court in the country. Justice's have hearing problems often can't understand what's being said. Justice Madershit is obviously on prescription drugs. This Justice breaks the rules of law. He vacated my epo, I went picked up my son, who was removed from primary care December 17 2015, the last day the court was open. A ploy for a crazy ex of mine who is the not child's mother, to take some kinda sick revenge. Justice Madershit, then sent a late night fax to my lawyers home, stating the epo was back on. I was at morning hockey practice with my son, when I received a phone call stating I had to leave my son yet again, he's 9 years old at this time, it had been 23 days since we saw each other, do to the courts Christmas closer. I've been the boys primary caregiver for 5 years at this time. Justice Madershit, is extremely arrogant and has demonstrated a poor understanding of his illegal actions. Justice Madershit you helped teach my son to fear police, damaged his sense of security and safety. Retire you bum, so some who has a clue can take your place. I've seen your court numerous times, you should be ashamed how treat unrepested parents. Your exactly what the prime Minister was speaking of when he discibed a two tiered Justice system. I hope he comes looking for you 1st.
