[HPFGU-OTChatter] I'm sickened by the US legal system

[K G]

That sounds like the legal battle I fought for years for child support.  My ex-husband was $30,000 behind.  I was working 3 jobs and he was riding around in a new truck and a big nice 5th wheel.  I was basically told that I ought to be "more understanding".  Well, while we were sitting in the dark because we could not pay the power bill, we got to be "very understanding"!!!

Over a decade ago, my dad won a lawsuit against a law firm and was
awarded $750,000... but 50% was split between two lawyers defending
him.  That large cut of the settlement was nauseating but the topper:
My dad is claiming he's so poor (only has $100,000 left now and his
house is paid off) that he can't afford my mom's alimony and had to
ride the bus to get to yesterday's trial.

What makes it worse is I heard secondhand the judge most likely fell
for the 'pity party'.  My dad, as much as I keep repeating 'he's my
dad, my blood', does some stuff... that really *disappoints* me.

The trial's outcome isn't known yet.  I'm not religious but I'm really
hoping for a miracle.
