Q: What must be proven to successfully sue a parenting coordinator who is "immune from suit".
The person in question intentionally broke their contract, admitted to breaking HIPAA laws in writing, and refuses to refund a retainer, despite admitting that I am due a reimbursement.
Can this be handled in small claims court?
I am also intending to file a complaint against the license with the department of education. I am under the impression that they will award damages in cases where HIPAA laws have been broken. Is that a better way to go or is it worth pursuing both angles?
A:
With all the wars going on around the world, our government has circled its wagons against all enemies foreign and domestic. We are its domestic enemies.
The government's staffers both employed and assigned are inside the circled wagons. Each can do whatever he wants and say what he is doing is not what it is he is actually doing. Each staffer adds to the numbers facing the asker, and the court helps coordinate the speech of these staffers to achieve the desired objective, the protection of children.
One of those staffers is a "parenting coordinator" assigned by the judge to help teach parents how to coordinate the raising of their child when in fact, it is government that is raising the child. There is a fixed government formula for a state's children which leaves in the hands of government decisions about custody, care, feeding, and education of children ensnared by the government.
Immunity is the method by which government's ends justify the means. There is no suing these staffers unless they do something untoward like injure a child. The parent always loses in these interactions. Courts are simply foxes being asked about other foxes raiding the hen house.
