Cordell & Cordell co-founder Joseph Cordell appeared on the "Eddie & Tracy Show" on 700 WLW radio in Cincinnati to discuss how this case illustrates how vulnerable men are to a judge's liberal interpretation of order of protection statutes.

1. If you are an evil, vindictive woman who wants to ruin your husband’s life and take your son’s
father away from him completely – all you need to do is say that you're scared of your
husband or domestic partner and they'll take him away!“
Mark Byron wrote this post on his Facebook page in the midst of his divorce. His wife found
out about the post, complained to the judge that it was a violation of Mark's restraining order,
and the judge ordered Mark to make daily apologies to his wife on Facebook or face 60 days
in jail.
Cordell & Cordell co-founder Joseph Cordell appeared on the "Eddie & Tracy Show" on 700
WLW radio in Cincinnati to discuss how this case illustrates how vulnerable men are to a
judge's liberal interpretation of order of protection statutes.
"This is where the legislature needs to step in and change the language in these statutes so
that something more convincing is needed to issue an order of protection other than merely a
statement from a party looking to gain an upper hand in the divorce and custody case,"
Cordell said. "In family court it's surprisingly easy to get an order issued that often will last
several weeks or months before the accused (usually the guy) can present his side of the
story."

small statement, the man can be forced to stay out of the home, barred from parenting time,
and prevented from any contact with his children.
"I'm not picking on women as being inherently more manipulative than guys, but whenever
you have a war over the things that are the most important you, such as your kids, it's
understandable that when you give one side of the table a nuclear weapon that side is going
to use it," Cordell said. "These orders give women a clear edge in a custody battle.
