So here's where things get pretty crazy.
My ex got the DVPO order, they used their friend and known abuser(Justin Gifford) in activists circles to serve it. This person gathered 8-10 DSA members to illegally serve and evict me at 11pm at night.
Everything about this service was illegal.
So thing's have completely exploded with my ex @nat @[email protected]. I had been working to separate from them and planned to move out next month if I was able to make enough money to do so. However tonight I was greated by members of Seattles DSA who served me with DVPO papers and insisted upon sweeping me from my home at midnight. Led by an activist who goes by the name of Joyful and a long time DSA member Bill. This was more cruel, dangerous and unethical than any police sweep. #Seattle #DSA #DARVO
When I pointed out that the service was illegal and that maybe DSA shouldn't be calling themselves abolitionists while evicting black activists at 11pm.... my ex called the cops on me.
My ex claimed it was illegal for me to video tape being served.
It's not. It's obviously perfectly legal to video a cop when they show up claiming to have a warrant etc. This is no different.
#urgent #courtwatch #familylaw #pnw
In the following weeks the person who served me, Justin Gifford, a friend of my ex began harassing people who had helped me move that night. He tracked down a friends mother and called her saying that her son was "supporting an abuser".
My ex & their friend Justin Gifford then sent death threats to a critical witness in an attempt to prevent them from testifying. Justin Gifford is a well known gun owner and ex military member, these are credible threats.
A lot of other bullshit has happened since then but I've had to stay quite until today.
The death threats and witness intimidation is just the tip of the iceburg.
Sadly my ex has filed at least 2-3 false police reports. Frequently for the simple act of asking people to attend #courtwatch for me.
Thankfully my ex does not know where I live currently so I have not had unexpected police contact despite their attempts to have me arrested.
Most recently my ex didn't like the judge's procedural ruling from our first hearing on June 10th. So my ex went and lied to another judge the very next day, claiming there was a need for another hearing.
The judge agreed and gave my ex a more favorable initial ruling.
However neither I or my lawyer were properly served or present for this hearing so it was a literal violation of my constitutional rights to have another hearing with NO notice!
My lawyer then had to do a firedrill to get an emergency hearing to have that ruling overturned. Which we prevailed on, because duh lol.
During that hearing the judge in no uncertain terms said that my ex had lied to him to obtain an invalid hearing and an unconstitutional ruling.
My ex appears to have lied about the timeline of the case, whether I was served and about there being any emergency at all.
The judge was not amused.
The very next day my ex retaliated by threatening to delete my 20yo phone number!
Two days later my ex deleted my phone number!
I currently have no phone service!
I had fully paid off my phone and my phone bill the day after I was served* with the DVPO because I knew for a fact my ex would eventually use any position of control in my life I'd given them to hurt me.
They deleted my number & closed my phone line at a critical time when I had court filings due to boot!
Each one of these little stunts my ex pulls ends up costing lawyer time, which means money.
They have torn me from my daughter, are constantly trying to gin up cops to harm me and are literally sending death threats to my friends and family!
Either way today goes there's sadly a lot of work for my lawyer to do.
Please consider donating a few bucks to help me keep my lawyer!

Court is done for today, no arguments were heard and the case has been continued until it's next hearing on July 21st.
My accuser substantially changed key filings last week, submitted an extremely lengthy final reply and did not serve my laywer the new evidence they submitted only to the court.
So the judge ruled that I need to reply to those new documents and need an additional 2 weeks to do so.
Still wondering if I'll be able to see my daughter's 1st bday. 😭
I just opened the first invoice from the lawyer, it's ten thousand dollars.
That's how much it has cost so far to defend myself from this frivolous family court case for "parenting while Black" and setting reasonable relationship boundaries as a Black man in America.
This racist ass country always finds new ways to be a nightmare.

Today started off hella stormy.
My lawyer had missed a scheduled checkin yesterday and I was worried he'd already stopped work or would soon. The bill didn't have clear payment deadlines and I've typically found lawyers to be more of the immediate payment types.
I'm STILL paying a major bill that supports my ex and I have other expenses piling up and I was agonizing over the need to pay this lawyer as quickly as possible.
Just in the dumps, you know?
But went and knocked some errands out, finally got yet another phone service and have a working phone again at last.
Caught up with my lawyer to discuss the bill today and thankfully their payment terms are very flexible and they will not stop work until 30days passed due. Dude was just working so hard on the latest filings he forgot to checkin yesterday.
Cannot thank fedi enough for the unwavering support.
So anything still helps but I can see the storm clouds clearing.

Curve ball, the judge today had a conflict of interest and needed to recuse herself so everything remains in limbo until we return to court on August 12th.
I'm STILL trying to rescue my 20yr old phone number before it expires and is resold. The judge today had to order my ex to return it and my ex lied to the judge once more claiming that they hadn't deleted it when infact my ex is the only person who could have deleted it because they are the sole owner of the phone plan.
The judge ruled that neither party can delete any other parties services, this is an extremely ordinary requests and I of course have abided this norm the entire time.
The only party who has broken the court order and threatened to delete any service was my ex.
The only party whose services have been deleted in violation of the order is me and my phone line.
With your continued donations I'm able to continue complying until the next hearing.

Good news, I've just won against these false allegations. 🎉 🥳
I'm facing a ton of economic fall out due to the cost of responding and complying fully with this process. I specifically refused to request legal fees from my false accuser bc that would only harm our child and empower the state even more.
Thanks again for the support and I should be able to be a father again in time for my daughter's birthday. 🎈 🎂
Despite being found innocent I still have over $6k in outstanding legal debt, more bills coming and became housing insecure as a result. 😭
I'm thankful to have had significant support to be able to defend myself from these false accusations but it's sadly not over yet.

Earlier this summer I was falsely accused of domestic violence and instantly made homeless and unable to see my daughter. Thankfully after three months of court I was found innocent and my accuser was scolded by multiple judges for repeatedly lying.Despite being found innocent of any wrong doing I still face massive legal costs.So far I've been billed over $15k! I'm very fortunate to have had a lawyer who worked tirelessly to protect my rights but I've paid the majority of the legal bill out of pocket, completely depleting my rainy day funds.Donations will help my stablize my life by staying on top of these legal bills, saving up for a new apartment and having money on hand to take care of my daughter.
Victory was short lived.
Throughout this week I texted my ex to try and find time to talk over our co-parenting plan and to find time for me to come see our daughter (her birthday is soon).
My ex ignored me all week then finally replied today telling me that despite the court order saying that my ex doesn't have excluvise custody they are illegally denying me access to my daughter.
Even just to visit for her birthday.
Needing more legal support 😭

Had I not been falsely accused I would have EASILY been able to cover my half of rent for the rest of the year or all of rent for 5 months.
Instead I was forced spend all my money on getting a lawyer. I won in court but now will become homeless in 6 days.

Really missing this tiny human. She just turned one this month and I was really looking forward to celebrating with her.
As soon as the court things were over I contact my ex to start working out our parenting schedule and to make sure my daughter could see her dad on her birthday.
Instead my ex told me no.
They told me to come back with a court order.
So now my ex is withholding my daughter from me and it will now have to take them to court to see my child.
https://chuffed.org/project/145522-help-falsely-accused-black-dad-get-back-on-his-feet
I've heard this type of situation called a "grey area" of US/WA laws around parenting, there's nothing grey about parental alienation.
Evidently one parent can run off with the child denying the other of contact without any legal reason to do so.
Now obviously it doesn't look great in court to do this, its a very childish dare to see if I'm -able- to spend money on court again.
My ex seemed to enjoy the reality that going BACK to court is extremely costly for me.
Children have a right to be loved by both of their parents! Alienating a child simply because a relationship didn't workout is a heart breaking thing to do to a child.
Thankfully there IS legal recourse, only problem is I need to spend even more money on lawyers to hold my ex accontable.
With the support of my community we can make sure my daughter is raised with a loving father in her life!

Over the past week my ex filed an "emergency restraining order" attempting to rehash their false DVPO which was already thrown out of court.
This too was thrown out of court again today on so many reasons all I can ask is that one day they just stop lying, delaying, harassing and acting like a karen. And let me see my daughter.
I can't even recount the abusive racist ways that my ex is weaponizing the system, it'd be a book.
Today's take away is that around 60% of our local civil court judges do infact remember when someone blatantly lies and Karens in their court rooms.
All of the judges in this latest round served in previous court interactions and my ex's deeply unprofessional interactions have clearly not be convincing.
This isn't really due to the dilligence of the judges, or me and has everything to do with how blatantly abusive my ex has been in court.
Despite this 2nd massive win, my ex was successful once again in wasting MORE money and time crying wolf that could've been better spent directly supporting our daughter or negotiating in good faith.
Bc of how wasteful this has all become my lawyer has encouraged me to prioritize fund raising for housing needs for myself 1st and foremost.
So this month I'm focused on raising about $2000 to secure new permanent housing for my daughter & I.

This entire situation is absurd and even the judges know it. This is the first ruling regarding my ex's false claims.
The problem with the court, even when you win, is that the state makes no effort to repair the damage:
- $15k in legal costs and debt
- Being separated from my 1yo daughter for 80+ days
- Losing my housing immediately
- Friends & Family Receiving death threats from my ex's friends

Today's nightmare is that I need about $340 before the end of today or my storage unit goes to auction.
If you've been following at home, my ex still has their things stored in the shared storage space and refuses to cooperate with paying their fair share, collecting their things or just being you know a reasonable person.
Anywho, its still in my best interest in court to keep paying for this crap despite them not cooperating
And frankly I can't afford this continuing abuse.

We're under $50 away from keeping our storage unit.

Thankfully after three months of court I was found innocent and my accuser was scolded by multiple judges for repeatedly lying.Despite being found innocent of any wrong doing I still face massive legal costs.So far I've been billed over $15k! I'm very fortunate to have had a lawyer who worked tirelessly to protect my rights but I've paid the majority of the legal bill out of pocket, completely depleting my rainy day funds.Donations will help my stablize my life by staying on top of these legal bills, saving up for a new apartment and having money on hand to take care of my daughter.
It's legal groundhogs day over here.
I'm reading the latest filings and its wild to have to face the exact same series of already defeated false allegations a THIRD time in court.
Triple jeopardy belongs on TV not in an American court room. I thought there were laws against double jeopardy, yeeesh.
It's pretty clear the ONLY thing my ex has to stand on keeping me away from my daughter is that my professional projects do not make comfortable consistent income.
Instead of just saying that and only that. My ex continues to push a false story of DV.
But in court filings the DV is only the fact that I didn't make as much as my as would like, "financial abuse".
And they also literally simply said I tell my daugher "no sometimes".
That's the ENTIRE original DV argument.
Thanks for the help! 🖤
@nullagent hello there young father. a child should not be used as a weapon against any parent. A child deserves both parents in their life.

You will not be the last.
That does not change the fact you and your offspring are going through a challenging life event.
