first amendment is alive Nov 15, 2009
In Massachusetts the most powerful courts are the Probate Courts. They can restructure or avoid all types of property rights and entites. In my experience, the rules of evidence are not always followed and hardly reviewed. The lifetime alimony and the destruction of marital assets leads to pain, emotional distress and apparent misjustice in that it takes property and rights and obligates many to a lifetime of pain and financial chaos. the use of contempts without trials that protect the individual appears to be a common method of dealing with complex financial issues. the laws in massachusetts as to alimony are out of step to today's reality. change has begun to seed the legislative process. the author exercise of her first amendment rights places the issues in focus and may be a roadmap to revamping the dated rules that are no longer in step with reality. while the author's ways may well be rogue, they are real and shine a light into the dark concers of the judicial system so as to force the needed legislative reform long overdue and reduce the agony of those the subject of a probate system that urgently demands the attention of lawmakers. the needs are real, the damage huge, and the cries of reform grow louder each day. the author's views help to sort out the need for immediate and effective reformation of a system in need of clear and present reform

Glad I wasn't divorced in Massachusetts Oct 28, 2009
I thought New Jersey was bad, but Barbara Johnson reinforces Massachusetts' reputation as the state with the most anti-father and anti-male biased judiciary in the country. She became a lawyer late in life, and seemed drawn to unpopular causes and clients who had already been kicked around by a judicial system that would like them to just go away and stop bothering us. Finally, the system turned on Barbara and disbarred her. Now the Massachusetts judiciary and the assorted other swine that feed at the family court trough have disbarred her, she has left the state, and they no longer have any authority over her. She is now free to name names, and she does it in this tell-all book, including 654 footnotes on 105 pages!
Just one caution ... Laws, court rules and court customs are different from state to state. The Massachusetts court procedures Barbara speaks of may be generally similar to what goes on in your state. But before you try to use them yourself, especially as a pro se, make sure you know how the system works where you live. Its hard to find lawyers like Barbara Johnson who will vigorously and tenaciously advocate for their clients even when threatened with personal harm. Talk to other pro ses. Learn to manage your own case regardless of whether you choose to use a lawyer or not.

BEHIND THE BLACK ROBES Oct 10, 2009
Barbara Johnson was an attorney in Massachusetts, and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at just how corrupt the legal system in Massachusetts (and elsewhere) really is. Drawing from her own personal experiences with the MA court system, she exposes corruption and violations of law that will seem to some to be unbelievable.
Always an out-spoken critic of the corrupt courts, Johnson was dis-barred in an attempt to silence her. In this book, she takes us into the court room, and explains clearly just how the corruption works, and how the judges are able to get away with their abuses of authority. She names names,and seems to be daring them to challenge her revelations in court. Along the way, she offers some excellent advice for presenting your own case, and cites relevant statutory and case law. The insights she offers should not be missed.

Judicial Tyranny Exposed Sep 30, 2009
Barbara Johnson captures a small section of the corruption of the judiciary in this tell all book. Her book chronicles the lies, abuses, and hypocrisy which characterizes modern judicial proceedings. Example after example of these black-robed mafioso's destructive effects on society is described in clear and precise language. Judges use to have to answer to the King for their actions. Our republic, lacking a King, has allowed the corruption of this criminal class unbounded usurpation of our rights. Judicial created immunities protect judges even when they are acting corruptly or maliciously. What we are therefore left with is a corrupt and malicious judicial system. Ms. Johnson's book chronicles some of the judicial corruption she encountered during her career.
