In Georgia, a jury can decide some issues related to divorce, including division of property, child support, alimony, and attorney’s fees. Georgia’s rare, we’re one of only two states that allows you to have a Jury to decide your future. This follows the 7th Amendment of the US Constitution any amount over $20. This should happen in Family and Probate Court in South Carolina. Carlton will be the Rep to make it happen.
Carlton is running for office in District 15 to improve and protect the lives of ALL children, the elderly and families in South Carolina.
Our objective is to end nepotism in courts and cronyism in the selection of judges. Jury trials are the only means to prevent nepotism from influencing Family Court decisions. Additionally, we must halt cronyism in the judicial merit selection process when choosing judges.
Currently, Family and Probate Courts in South Carolina DO NOT ALLOW for Jury Trials, which violates the 6th and 7th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution. Before Family Courts were formed in 1976 in South Carolina there were County Court Judges and back then you could ask for a Jury Trial for Family Matter Cases. 200 years before South Carolina Family Court was formed the Constitution was written.
It is past time, and our representatives must ensure that the 6th and 7th Amendments of our U.S. Constitution are enforced in our SC Family Courts by introducing jury trials. The reason is that if a Judge Violated your Constitutional Rights in a Family Court you have to have the money to Appeal it to the Appeals Courts. Then if they deny it, you have to pay to appeal it to the Supreme Court of South Carolina. This will cost the average person $40,000. No average person has this kind of money, so we must act now to stop this violation of the U.S. Constitution for the average Children and Families in South Carolina. Many individuals feel powerless against the current legal system. To rectify this, we must implement a fairer approach, where a jury made up of one's peers can decide Family Court cases. This will help to eradicate nepotism, as juries are unbiased and uninterested in the relationships and connections that exist between lawyers within the system. Additionally, introducing juries would offer new lawyers an opportunity to make a reputation for themselves, instead of being forced to conform to the system or risk being blacklisted.
The military is committed to defending the Constitution with their lives and our judges must also uphold it 100%. Carlton, a fourth-generation veteran, believes that if the military sacrifices their lives for the Constitution, then our judges should be held to the same high standard of perfection to uphold it.
It is imperative that the DiMarco VS. DiMarco 2011 case is codified into law. This case demonstrates that South Carolina's Family Courts are NOT adhering to the U.S. Constitution. This violation should concern ALL residents of South Carolina and motivate them to advocate for changes in the law. This effort focuses on ensuring justice for our children's future, and Carlton is committed to leading the charge.
Evidence of this Constitutional violation can easily be found by searching for DiMarco VS. DiMarco 2011 on Google. As veterans, we do not serve our country only to return home and have our constitutional rights disregarded. With your support, Carlton will tirelessly work towards changing this in South Carolina.
HOLD OUR JUDGES ACCOUNTABLE FOR NOT UPHOLDING THE RULE OF LAW. OUR REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS SHOULD REMOVE THEM WHEN THE JUDGE DID NOT UPHOLD THE LAW OR VIOLATED THE LAW AND COME UP FOR RE-APPOINTMENT AND RE-ELECTION IN THE HOUSE AND SENATE.
It's important to reform the Judicial Merit Selection Commission (JMSC) process by making it more open. Additionally, if you're a practicing lawyer in the House or Senate, you should not be allowed to serve on the JMSC. This is because it would create a conflict of interest when selecting judges whom you may later appear before in court. Currently, many of our South Carolina judges are elected by state lawmakers, the majority of whom are attorneys. This process is problematic as it's akin to the "fox guarding the henhouse".
It is crucial for judges to possess the utmost level of skill and precision, comparable to that of Navy Seals. Mistakes are not tolerated in this line of work, as they can lead to fatal consequences. If a judge's actions result in the destruction of even one person's life, they should no longer hold the position of judge in South Carolina. It is imperative that judges uphold this level of perfection. If they cannot, they should revert to practicing law instead of serving as a judge in South Carolina.
In Carlton's opinion, judges should be appointed for a 4-year term instead of 6 years. A 6-year term is too long, especially if a judge violates the rule of law. It is hard to remove them until they come up for reappointment and election by the House and Senate. It is necessary to review their performance every 4 years to ensure they are still fit for the job.
Additionally, the ODC (Office of Disciplinary Counsel) should include non-lawyers on the panel responsible for reviewing disciplinary actions against lawyers and judges. At present, only lawyers are involved in disciplining their fellow lawyers and judges. This is similar to a criminal having the opportunity to select their criminal associates as jurors for their trial. It is unfair and biased.
Carlton needs a grassroots effort from veterans, military personnel, and District 15 residents, as well as support from inside and outside the state, to achieve this necessary reform in South Carolina.

However, a jury would have found him not guilty. After suing the prosecutor and police, he was awarded 3 million dollars, but the biased judge walked away free. The 20 years he lost cannot be replaced by the $3 million. A Jury in Juvenile Court "Family Court" would have kept him from losing 20 years of his life. Watch this story of injustice below.
DALLAS FAMILY-LAW ATTORNEYS HELPING PEOPLE NAVIGATE CUSTODY ISSUES
Co-parents do not always agree as to what constitutes an appropriate division of their rights and obligations. As such, in many instances, they will take legal action to define custody rights. While judges decide custody issues in many cases, Texas affords people the right to jury trials in custody cases. There are benefits and risks to trying a custody case before a jury, and people considering seeking a jury trial in a custody matter should speak to an attorney to fully comprehend the potential effects of taking such a course of action. The assertive Dallas child custody attorneys of McClure Law Group have extensive experience trying custody cases before judges and juries, and if you are involved in a custody dispute, we can help you determine the best manner to proceed.
THE RIGHT TO JURY TRIALS IN CUSTODY CASES
Texas differs from other states in that it allows parties to demand jury trials in custody cases. Pursuant to the Texas Family Code (the “Code”), any party involved in a custody case can request a jury trial. Juries can only decide certain matters in custody cases, however. Specifically, juries can issue verdicts appointing sole or joint managing conservators and possessory conservators. If they appoint joint managing conservators, they can determine which conservator has the sole right to designate the child’s primary residence. They can also decide whether to impose a geographic limitation on the area in which the residence must be located and, if so, can determine the area. Notably, a jury verdict in a custody case does not need to be unanimous to be valid; instead, only 10 out of a 12-member jury panel or five out of a six-member jury panel must agree.
Juries in custody cases cannot determine child-support issues, the exact terms or conditions of a party’s right to access or possession of a child, or any other right or duty of a conservator, outside of the right to designate a child’s primary residence. The Code also prohibits parties from seeking jury trials in paternity and adoption suits.
Our goal is to stop Nepotism in Courts and Cronyism in Selecting Judges. Jury Trails are the only way to stop Nepotism in Family Court Decisions. Also, we must stop Cronyism in Selecting Judges in the Judicial Merit Selection Process.
In the DeMarco vs DeMarco case, the father had the financial resources to appeal an unjust ruling made by a Family Court Judge, which cost him approximately $40,000. It is important to note that if you are held in civil contempt, you could be sent to jail. However, in Family and Probate Courts, you do not have the right to request a Jury to decide your fate. Many argue that this could be time-cons
Ensuring fair and just decisions in courts is crucial, and the best way to eliminate nepotism and favoritism is by having jury trials. This is shared by many who have experienced unjust decisions. Carlton's campaign is aimed at restoring power back to the people, and this includes promoting fair justice for all. Our founding fathers envisioned a more perfect union, and it's our responsibility to e
