Prince for Justice

"The system is broken, it takes way too long to get anything done. I spent six and a half years fighting to be able to have access to my kids."

I write this post, with tears in my eyes. My heart breaks for this family. And it is SO true that justice takes *far* too long. And yet, as one seeing the massive dockets that are being addressed by our judges here in the Commonwealth, I also don't know what the answer is. More judges, which results in more cost to the taxpayer? A less litigious society, where we try to resolve our differences outside a courtroom (which is something only those in the know, know I'm known for)? Something else?

I'd love to hear your thoughts, as someone who has both experienced the *significant* delays representing individuals that were *eventually* vindicated and someone who has previous run for judge, hoping to make a difference... Regardless of your thoughts, please keep this family in your prayers

P.S. Here in PA, there are expedited appeal procedures for custody matters; however, those procedures do not dictate how quickly our appellate courts decide the matter. That is an issue - with positives and negatives - itself...

While I understand the frustration of having to deal with frivolous actions (as I have *plenty* of experience dealing with municipalities that violate our explicit preemption law and precedent - and for which, the courts have YET to issue attorney fees and costs in relation to), a court, of *any* level, should *never* consider issuing an injunction against any person or entity, precluding them from instituting an action or appealing a decision, as, especially a pro se litigant, has no ability to determine what a court *may* consider to be frivolous. The Judiciary in Pennsylvania has become exceeding legislative in its decisions and has invited litigants to ask it to "legislate from the bench." Be careful for which you ask, as you just might get it...

Wow, talk about a statement! Congrats to Justice Wecht for becoming a judicial officer, who is not affiliated with *any* political party. It is definitely time that we get the political parties out of our judicial elections and judgeships -

(WHTM) – Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice David Wecht says he’s no longer a registered Democrat amid what he called “anti-Jewish” actions. Wecht, who says the statement wa…

WINNING! It's what I've spent my career doing - holding all forms of government accountable to the law and constitution!

Today, Chief Counsel Joshua Prince of the Civil Rights Defense Firm, P.C., secured a major victory in obtaining an emergency, ex-parte preliminary injunction, precluding enforcement of Bristol Bor…

This morning, a split Commonwealth Court ruled that for-profit abortion providers have a "constitutionally-mandated ability to bill Pennsylvania taxpayers to pay for abortions on-demand sought by Medical Assistance recipients...without factfinding, without even an answer to Abortion Providers’ Petition for Review" through a "judicial fiat," as declared by Judge McCullough's dissent, which was joined by Judges Covey and Wallace (and with Judge Wallace writing her own dissent).

Wow, just wow…talk about believing you’re entitled. They should’ve arrested him immediately for breaching security

A well-connected central Pa. attorney has repeatedly refused security screenings as his wife begins her new role as a county judge.

I don't know if I can handle all the WINNING today! And all in front of, or a result of, my favorite court - the Commonwealth Court!

Woohoo! Going to be back in front of my favorite court for a lil oral argument regarding the constitutionality of the regulations promulgated and enforced (as well as those unwritten regulations that the PSP enforces) related to Act 235!

For those who are unaware, oral argument before the Commonwealth Court is extremely rare, as oral argument is only scheduled if the court so directs. That being said, I cannot remember the last case that I litigated before the Commonwealth Court (in its trial or appellate capacity), where I didn't have oral argument. I think they just love seeing me there 😁
