Challenging DV laws
As noted below attorney 'Isi Mataele is
looking for a case, or cases he can use to challenge domestic violence
laws in federal court. I am given to understand that for the perfect
case the best candidate would be someone who is employed, has no prior
criminal record, being a Veteran wouldn¹t hurt, and who sought
emergency shelter assistance for himself (and children if possible)
and was denied services.
If you fit most of these criteria, or
know someone who does, please contact him directly.

Dr. Corry,
I have been following you on your DV restraining orders and child
custody issues. I actually want to bring a federal challenge to
California's DV laws. I need a plaintiff that has a really good case
to challenge the law. A plaintiff that case exposes all the
flaws of the system. If you come across one the let me know.
Thanks,
'Isi Mataele

Getting the word out
The problems with abused men don't exist
unless and until they are documented. ABC's TV program 20/20 is trying
to help and looking for abused men who are willing to tell their story
publicly. I've talked with Sean Dooley and, if he can find the right
stories, could be a big help in making the public and legislators
aware of the immense damage current domestic violence laws are
doing.
I would suggest contacting Dooley first
by email with a brief summary of your case.

Subject: Re: Battered Men - ABC News 20/20
Hello Dr. Corry
I am a producer at ABC News 20/20 and we
are researching a story on heterosexual men who experience domestic
violence. This is clearly an issue often overlooked by the media
but one we know can have equally devastating consequences for
relationships and families. Generally speaking I think it¹s
fair to say that many people don¹t even realize battered men exist
which is why we hope an in-depth report can shed light on this
misunderstood experience. Ultimately we are looking for a few
brave individuals willing to come forward and discuss their
experience. I am reaching out to you in the hopes that your
expertise in this area might lead us to programs dealing with battered
men and individuals willing to open up. Is there a time I could
give you a call to discuss this further?
Many thanks,
20/20
