Unfortunately, at Friend of the Court offices around
Michigan, there is evidence of the appearance of illicit and potentially
criminal activities. This evidence includes evidence of theft of child
support, evidence of child custody fraud, evidence of tampering with
witnesses, evidence of child support calculation fraud, evidence of
obstructing a federal audit, etc.

"You only need to go as far as the Genessee County FOC .. He openly tells of standing on line on his 1st day on the job as FOC, while an un-knowing clerk twice told him to "get behind the line" as she was taking a personal call on her cell, and told of another employee who came back from vacation, then proceeded to systematically dump over 90 voicemails from his phone while talking about the previous night ballgame with his cube-neighbor."

Former FOC enforcement specialist Carol Rhodes
explained: 'I came to the 32nd circuit family court to make a
difference, ... but early on I realized ... it was all about money ...
In the years I worked for the system I witnessed regular deception ...
that was mandated by office policy. I saw gender bias and discrimination.
I saw records destroyed. ... We were rated according to how much
money we would bring in'
