Fighting CPS
9/12/2015 7:47:00 AM
The purpose of this blog has been to provide updates on some of the cases I reported in my book (Fighting CPS: Guilty Until Proven Innocent of Child Protective Services Charges ISBN 9-780-9800061-6-2) that had not been resolved when the book went to press, and to report other cases where CPS is not working up to par. I’d also like to hear about cases in which Child Protective Services did the right thing so those cases can serve as examples of what should be done. Occasionally, I will report helpful tips and web sites with advice on fighting CPS. To comment on this blog, or to tell your story, email Deborah Frontiera at frontiera.fightingcps.deborah.gmail.com

A Brighton woman is fighting the orders of the Child Protective Services, and her lawyer says the Department of Human Services is violating the woman's constitutional right The Livingston Daily reported.

Although Brenda Burns has full custody over her 1-year-old daughter, CPS is requesting visits with the child to check on her well-being and safety. The child's father has been convicted of criminal neglect/abuse, but a jury decided Brenda Burns was not responsible for any abuse and she was given full custody of the baby.
"All Mrs. Burns wants is a peaceful home for her daughter, and having government monitors, literally, in your face and in your home constantly is not a peaceful home for Naomi, and the line had to be drawn," said Elizabeth Warner, Burns' attorney. "I think it's been properly drawn."
Burns has moved into an undisclosed location with her daughter and has not shared that information with CPS.
