I swore on the bible that no court would ever treat me so badly again even if i have to represent myself in the highest court in the land. When i finially got into the childrens court while i was going for custody of my Grandson after all the things that the other side were saying about me i was denied Legal Aid i only got inside after four court cases as my Daughters witness, the lawyer i had and was paying for myself had a death in the family on that first day and wanted to get it put off until the next day, i refused this and said i would represent myself, I walked in that court with my head up dressed just like the lawyers that were fighting to take my grandson away from his family and when the Magistrate asked where my legal adviser was i stood up slowely and said i was there to represent myself and that is exactly what i did, i tore them to threads with a strong voice and over the next month i walked out of there with my boy. that head honcho woman called me the "GRANDMOTHER FROM WOOP WOOP" when she lost her case to the old Lismore Girl with no education..as i said when i left the court when i looked at her in my mind "Never mess with an old Lismore Girl and you will never ever learn that from a book" I finially got Legal Aid to pay a month later

AMEN
