Very excited for my friend and colleague, Professor Stephanie L. Tang. We met on Clubhouse during the pandemic. #iykyk She recently contacted me to discuss international custody matters, and the Hague Convention in New York family law. Her research of this topic will be published in an upcoming law review article. Summertime means family travel, and during divorce matters, parents often take their children on trips, both near and far. When a trip is planned overseas, parents often fear abduction, and loss of control over their children. The Hague Convention protects the rights of parents in many countries around the world.

Appalachian School of Law is saddened by the loss of Mr. Frank Kilgore. Mr. Kilgore was instrumental in starting ASL and is responsible for the compact that kept us in Buchanan County; just one example of his love for Southwest Virginia. In the coming days, we will share more about the numerous ways Mr. Kilgore helped shape the Appalachian School of Law. We are sending love, thoughts, and prayers to his family during this difficult time. #InMemoriam #inmemoryof #friendofASL #asllaw #lawschool #asl #AppalachianSchoolofLaw #appalachianschooloflaw

DESPISE THE FREE LUNCH – Robert Greene EMBRACE THE CAUSE STRIKE – Shari Belitz Beware of what is given for free. Nothing is free. Said my dad. I learned this lesson early, but it took years to apply it to trial. In the academic world PEREMPTORY CHALLENGES were all glitter and flash. They had treatises and law review articles written about them. If you didn’t know Batson and its progeny you didn’t deserve to be in law school. No self-respecting law student (or professor) gave AF about CAUSE STRIKES. As a new lawyer I never gave them much thought either. One day something clicked. OMFG. The free lunch. That was the PEREMPTORY. They were given FOR FREE. You didn’t have to WORK for them. That is why there were so few. I understand! I finally understand! You must EARN your CAUSE STRIKES. Anything of VALUE you must EARN! CAUSE STRIKES have so much VALUE that if you know how to use them you can save the FREE LUNCH for when you are starving. The issue is not only HOW to use them. But WHEN to use them. TIMING IS EVERYTHING. Stay tuned. I’ll show you tomorrow. We will take juror EXPERIENCE and ATTITUDES and set up the jurors who need to be sent HOME SWEET HOME. Because no one wants a MOTLEY CR(EW) on their jury. Amiright??? #lawyers #psychology #trial #voirdirestartshere #clearasabelitz Do you like Nikki Sixx? Voir Dire?

Justice 🗣️Justice seems illusive at time. The law is what is implemented to instill order in society. 🗣️Even with laws, there are lawless people. 🗣️That’s why the justice system is needed. However, sometimes, because of moral failure or other issues, the system fails. 🗣️I experienced the failure of the justice system for nearly 10 years, until justice was finally served. 📗My book “Painting in the Rain” outlines details regarding multiple court cases I was involved in, malfeasance, as well as new law written in Ohio because of the circumstances that my children were involved in. 🗣️What’s the point? NEVER. GIVE. UP. Never abandon truth, Justice, or fighting for what’s right… especially when it involves your children. 🫶🏼You can do hard things! • • • #victoriaellen #author #truecrime #speaker #justice #truth #warrior #law #caselaw #rights #resilience #perserverance
