    I was accused of Rape! No police reports, No charges, She said she did not know rape was a crime LOL! Restraining order issued.. Bang 4 violations right in a row For e-mailing. I was ready to go to Jail. Being accused of a crime at a Restraining order hearing shouldn't that have been moved up into criminal court where I could prove her lies. But the judge gave her the weapon of my Mass destruction. By the way this woman is an Executive for the State of Massachusetts I can't wait to go public with my story.

    Echoing some other comments, the system needs to be changed not only to prevent false allegations from being so easily acted on, but to punish those who make them and the officials who violate men's rights because of them.

    I was accused of DV in 2007, she accused me of asulting her in 2003 when we lived in another state. it was used as a stall tactic because she had abondoned our children with me. once she found out I was going for full custody, she returned and filed the PFA. i was convinced to plead out cause I was told if it goes to court I will be found guilty.How I am I guilty? She had no proff to back up her charges. I was labled a criminal and this has had major impact on me trying to get full custody. this law needs to be past!

    False Allegations are unfounded, but yet the accused party is guilty and has to prove their innocence what's wrong with this picture.

    False allegations are easy to create and impossible to disprove. They are frequently used to gain advantage in divorce proceedings. Everyone knows it the "first one to the courthouse" who gains the advantage. Judges then typically "err on the side of safety" and reward false allegations even though there is no proof. Then you have an entire network of psychologists, social workers, child protective service workers and of course lawyers who all have strong financial incentives in throwing gasoline on the fire. This gives rise to further allegations of abuse, as they "grease the slide" and make it easy to "fine tune" the false allegations. Meantime, the judge just wants to keep the meter running and has no interest in reconciliation. Name one person who is the alleged abuser's advocate? Where is the alleged abuser supposed to go?

    False allegations need to be addressed to restore the precept that one is innocent until proven guilty. This notion has been completely lost in the family courts across our land, thanks in large part to VAWA legislation. This is a major problem and an embarrassment to the US legal system. There should be strictly enforced penalties for those that accuse falsely. The damage done by these allegations is substantial to the real victims, who are children and their relationship with their fathers, let alone the fathers themselves, whose lives can be devasted by these false charges.

    For nearly 2 years I was under injunction and unable to contact my children or my ex-wife - all on the basis of false accusations! I appealed the case to the higher court as soon as the judgment came in, and because the Appeals Courts MUST justify their decisions on the basis of substantial evidence and the letter of the law, the DVI was reversed and ordered to be vacated. The effect of vacating an order is as though it never existed - but that doesn't bring back the time my boys lost with their father - that's gone forever. And the poison my ex- instilled into them during that time will stay with them until they work it out in therapy later in their lives. And it's not just about relationship between me and them - it will affect ALL of their potential intimate relationships until they work this out. Children need to be protected from the environment of emotional abuse that often accompanies false allegations. Think of it - FALSE means it was intentional! Why should someone who would twist facts to law enforcement and the courts not see advantage in turning the couple's children against the falsely accused parent also? Vindictive people are after revenge and control and they don't care who they hurt or how they get their satisfaction. In every State it's against the law to present false allegations or to commit perjury. The courts and law enforcement must change their policy and now begin to actively prosecute these violations of the law in domestic cases as well as in criminal cases.

    Children are deprived of fathers because of false allegations. And this is the intent of those who make them.

    False allegations are a huge problem and rob many kids of their dads without due process.

    I am a member of S.A.V.E. whose mission is to improve the effectiveness of our nation?s approach to ending domestic violence through education, training and awareness programs and by reforming policies and practices of VAWA which do not work. Our sons, brothers, fathers, neighbors and friends are amongst the 1000s affected every year by false allegations, lack of due process and constitutional rights, and we truly believe that by changing ineffective policies and practices, we can better protect the true victims who now suffer due to lack of resources and overburdened systems. Congress can lead the way to establish policies and guidelines which eliminate mandatory arrest and no drop prosecution and institute policies of discretion and alternative resolution for cases of trivial or non physical contact, to ensure validation of offense before punishment and arrest, to encourage sanctions for false accusations to eliminate discrimination, revenge and personal agendas, to restore the constitutional directive of innocence until proven guilty, and to be allowed proper defense of person. Congress provides the funding; let it be for the right reasons and the best protections for ALL citizens.

    my son was motivated by nosey neighbor to evict ex parte my son from his home in his name which he buildt; wife sold it illegally; lost his job; arrested; could not speak to children for 40 days; then 3 months of supervised visitation; the charge: battery; overturend; false allegatios; 5 years custody battle and lost children; wife mental disorders; drunk; criminal; abusive; alienating; the problem? Judge did not want to read the paper the next morning and see where husband killed his wife; the other minor problem is our dear vice president, joe biden and his VAWA which pays the judiciary to throw men in jail any old way they can how do you solve the problem make the femal false allegationist prove her case or be open to a retaliatory suit this dillema comes from the dear :American exception" doctrine whereby one cannot sue another for false litigation in family court area the result this is ruining american moral issues and in a few years one can forget being proper and correct or legal on anything kangaroo courts will abound good luck ron nerding, esq.ret. 765 349 0847 indiana resident

    I am currently being accused by an ex girlfriend of Domestic Violence that she filed as revenge for thing's I said about her. We had a court date of Sept 16th which I could not wait to get over with because I could not sleep for day's from nerves. Went to court for my 2PM hearing and was told by 3PM our trial would not be seen because other cases ran late. Now rescheduled for OCT 12TH!!! So hear I am having to wait 3 more weeks knowing I did nothing wrong and a bundle of nerves. I take these charges very seriously and can not believe how just from someone's word I can get served a Domestic Violence report and restraining order for words that are basically he said she said.
