Title:	The false promise of custody in domestic violence protection orders
Authors:	Kohn, Laurie S
Keywords:	Protection orders;United States;Children;Parenting;Family law
Year:	2016
Citation:	Vol. 65, no. 3 ; pp. 1002-1054
Notes:	"Across the country, survivors of domestic violence are leaving court with what often amounts to false assurances as well as illusory custody and parenting time orders. For many survivors, these rulings, which are part and parcel of domestic violence protection rulings, are the only court orders they will obtain regarding the care of their children. These rulings set forth a vital structure for how children will be raised and create concrete expectations for parents and children alike. Increasingly, however, it is becoming evident that these parenting and custody orders are challenging, if not impossible, to enforce, leaving survivors with false hope and ill-placed reliance."
