| dc.description.notes | This book presents a large study that aims to answer the following questions: who were the families in custody and access cases where child abuse allegations were involved? How did the Family Court deal with such cases? And what was the outcome for the children involved? Data were collected from the case records of families who at any time from January 1994 to the end of July 1995 had been taking any action over the custody and access of their children where child abuse allegations were involved. Study sites used were in the ACT and Melbourne. Cases were followed through until August 1996. The research team also interviewed a selection of staff from the Court. The findings are presented raising the issues of the pervasive and widespread violence in families disputing custody and access with and without allegations of child abuse. Also raised is the possibility of the various types of violence masking others so that less is presented to the Family Court as an issue than actually occurs. The findings suggest that it is more relevant for the Family Court to proceed from a theoretical framework of overcoming family violence than from a partnership separation one. It is recommended that the Court introduce a specialised case management system for cases involving child abuse allegations. | en |
