  As a grown woman I overcame child abuse. After a relative brutally raped me I had to go to court with my family to testify about things that made me uncomfortable. At seventeen years old my aunt allowed men around me and they did inappropriate things. Eventually I became pregnant by my child dad who also was abusive to me. We decided to break up for the better and just be respectful parents for our child. In 2014 judge Ditorro granted full joint legal custody to both of us me and there father now share custody in which we do seven days in and seven days off. My issue is that I work and pay taxes and because my child's father is selfish he continues to claim the child each year without allowing me to get back the money's that federal and state ate taking from me and my child each year. He does not care about the fact that the judge told us we need to communicate who will claim and for which yeah. The judge said if he does not comply I have a right to come back to court and get an order that week state the tax years for whom which can claim the child and from what period. I feel as though because the judge trusted him to make a good decision as a dad instead of writing it on paper that the court is causing me and my child pain and suffering. Someone stole his car so he rushed claimed my son again and got a new car and did not care about how me and there child get back and forth it's not fair to me to have to keep asking for a trial. Not fair to me to have to go through all I'm going through when he's the one that did not follow the court order. Also I have arthritis from walking a lot my son was borderline diabetic and I had to take him to the doctor because his dad does not keep up with his health. When I have a issue with his dad the court feel as though it's ok to delay things like speedy trials. I have filed a motion to modify and a return of service and I called judged Beckers chambers and a very stern and cold person answered and really didn't want to listen to me as a person and that hurt my feelings. I work a Forty hours a week and it was pretty sad I had to take time off just to file, and when I do nobody feels the need to grant a hearing . Today I had two witnesses heard the clerk for judge Becker say even though I filed correctly and did everything I need to do that they just haven't made a hearing and he said he don't know when they will make a hearing then he said I need to file the same paperwork all over again but someone else said that wouldn't be necessary. So now people have me going back and forth and aren't telling me what I need to Know. I feel as though I'm being attacked by the family Courts the same people who are supposed to protect me. It's been for years since this order was written and my child's dad has claimed him each year this needs to end soon. He should follow the judges orders and allow me to claim our son on alternating years or we can split the taxes he get half and I get the other half. This is appropriate for parents like us who share custody and do ling tern visits to know that he failed to make a good decision shows how immature he is which is why I am asking for a trial and have to go back up to the courts now after being at work all day sweating I can't go home take a shower I have to go to court

  I have to give DC Superior some love. This is a very busy court, that handles pretty much every kind of case. Many of these cases are challenging, for a variety of reasons. My experiences before the Superior Court judges have largely been positive, and while the judges do not always agree with me, which is a small negative ;-) , the jurists are very high quality. The building is old, and it's almost always a madhouse, but this court does a good job in a high-degree-of-difficulty environment.

  The escalators are often broken, forcing a large number of people into the already crammed elevators, which only makes service slower. If you're able-bodied (that includes not having a chronic pain/fatigue disability), please take the stairs. Also, pro-tip: the front door is super crowded with long lines. If you're in a rush, consider going in the back door (you still have to go through security of course, but there's usually a much shorter/nonexistent line).
