The Judicial System

I have lost faith in the Judicial system. Family lawsuits are painfully difficult especially when theft is involved and proven. We pleaded at trial for justice and equity and were side-swiped by a rural Judge and his former law partners - who just happened to be the opposing parties attorney. Judges are supposed to make decisions based on fact and law. This Judge appears to have based his decision on "feelings" and emotional pleas. We are disappointed to say the least. An appeal is possible and more than likely this decision would be overturned in short order but the appeal process is long and expensive. For someone like us who have been waiting for payment of our share of the estate for two years we are wary of spending another two years waiting for an appeal decision. I guess this kind of decision is why there are ethics committees for Judges and Attorneys. I think I might just notify an ethics committee or two. Be careful dealing with the "Justice" system.....it might be wise to ask for a change of venue and a Judge who doesn't know either set of attorneys. Just voicing my opinion and my disappointment in the "system".
