Parents come to court with full legal rights to, or custody of, their child(ren). Hopefully, they settle out of court and leave court quickly without the need for a judge to assign a percentage of ownership to either one of them, somewhere between 0% and 100%. Jury trials help to promote settlement in all aspects of the judicial branch of government. No one (or almost no one) actually wants to need to resort to a jury trial. Settlements are significantly less stressful than going to trial, attorney fees and other costs are significantly reduced by avoiding trial, custody matters are usually resolved much more quickly than going to trial, and settlements last longer than court orders, and remain private between the parents in most instances, #PromoteSettlement, #EndFalseAllegations, #ResolveConflictQuickly, #PreventUGI.
