It is time to stop being silent, and to speak out against inequality and discrimination…read more This review is for the Kern County Superior Court - Mojave Branch. If you enter this facility as a soon-to-be divorced father I've got some really bad news for you: You are about to experience an unimaginable level of injustice and bias, regardless of who you are as a person. Your distinguished career as a continuously employed hard-working individual does not matter, and your spotless record as a law-abiding citizen does not matter. Even if you don't drink alcohol, don't do illegal drugs, don't gamble, and you were never unfaithful to your soon-to-be ex-wife, none of this matters to this courthouse. Most importantly, it does not even matter how good of a father you are. The only thing that matters to this courthouse is that you are a man, and because of this you are highly unlikely to be granted sole custody, primary custody, or even equal custody of your own children. I was once naive, and I believed that the world was fair. Unfortunately, while here, I suddenly became aware of lawyers, mediators and even judges prepared to make decisions against you based on their antiquated belief that mothers are better parents than fathers. It is even more unimaginable to realize that most courthouses maintain this ridiculous belief, especially considering the progress toward equal rights this country has made over the last 70 years. Unfortunately, what most divorcing fathers will first experience will be initiated by the lawyers, most often with the mother's lawyer demanding sole or primary custody of the children. This initial legal bias is baffling, and most often leaves the father surprised that he must advocate for his own equal rights. Most importantly, regardless of what the lawyers bring before the court, the judge in a family law custody case should seek justice and equality, and should strive for what is in the best interest of the children. For my case, the judge in this courthouse did not. And unfortunately, I later discovered that this is typical for most family law judges in this country. So yes, I took the blue pill for most of my life, just believing everything that society told me about reality. Upon entering this courthouse, I still believed that my honorable, ethical and fatherly characteristics mattered. I was tragically wrong, and I was rudely awakened to the reality of the discrimination against fathers in our U.S. family law system (aka, being forced to "take the red pill"). Unlike this courthouse, I strongly believe that the presumption should be 50/50 (or equal) shared parenting in all cases, and this should be enforced unless unusual circumstances dictate otherwise. While here, with this strong belief, I also learned that it does not matter how much you "fight for your kids" as a father in this courthouse. Unfortunately, I spent hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to prove I was a good father, fighting tirelessly in what I now realize was an unwinnable battle. But, why does a father have to prove he is a good parent at all? Shouldn't the burden of proof be reversed? Shouldn't we just presume a father is a good parent unless proven otherwise? Finally, let me emphasize this sad truth: I am not alone; My tragic circumstances are not unique. Millions of other fathers in this country have been unjustly treated, just like me. Sadly, there is an elusive corruption in this system, hidden from most folks unless they happen to be a father going through the process of a divorce. This family law system provides an alluring financial incentive for divorcing mothers to demand dominance over their children because this action almost always maximizes the financial gain of everyone within this corrupt family law system in the process. These actions are led by most courthouses in this country every day, year after year, just as it was at this specific courthouse for me. Nationwide, there are millions of victims here, and sadly my children are now among them. Unfortunately, my children will not be blessed with the advantage of having frequent and easy access to their loving father, for a role model, for a positive influence, for support, for guidance, for encouragement, and for many other beneficial qualities that most fathers provide. They were denied that right, and I was denied my right of spending equal quality time with my own children. Unfortunately, now my children will spend the vast majority of their time with one selfish parent that has made false allegations about my character, even at the expense of our own children's well-being, all while this courthouse turned a blind eye. Therefore, this courthouse is well-deserving of a 1-star rating for its injustice served, and for submitting to the family law corruption that dominates most of this country. Open your eyes. See the inequality. Take the red pill.

But there is one woman there that is extremely rude condescending and just outright makes you feel like a criminal!!!!!! I just cringe every time I go to that window and I pray that she's not the person that comes up there to help me. I really think she needs to take a Customer service course because to work with people on a daily basis you have to be nice. Not rude and talk to people like they're idiots. The other thing I noticed that she picks and chooses who to be nice too. I've had to come in on several occasions and just pray that she isn't going to be the person that I'm gonna have to deal with.

Yup I've got my Tehachapi Family to visit in my next life! What a different lifestyle than NYC…read more Britt definitely didn't like getting around in the city when she came for vacation. I've watched my Tehachapi Family grow by generations. Along with my Sister in Spirit Britt we have been through the death of loved ones, births and without a doubt lots of heath conditions. I hope Britt doesn't mind me saying that I mentored her in her quest to be Elite. I'm so proud of her and I enjoy seeing her attending events! Yes I used to exchange gifts with Britt years ago. She was the only one. She loved my Yelp Swag so I sent her big boxes. Definitely my Tehachapi grandbaby received a gift. The family grew so huge I had to stop! So I'm posting a couple pictures of my favorite gift from Britt. I've placed it where I can see it on my daughter's entry table. I currently use it for quick cash to give my building employees because at this point in time I need a lot of assistance! Always remember I love you and think of you daily my Tehachapi Fam! PS Do your research on the City and surrounding areas history before you visit. At one time there was a woman's prison located here. There's an old 1950's Black and White Movie about the woman's life imprisoned here. I enjoyed it! If I find it I will post a screenshot.

We happened to be there on a perfect day when High Desert Falconry visited for an educational program. It was so amazing learning about these beautiful birds. We learned so much from the husband and wife team. Definitely check out their website for any upcoming events. During the summer, they also have a lunch program for the kids from 11:30 to 12:30. This is the last week they are having it. It starts when the kids are out of school and runs to the end of July. That is, if they receive the funding to offer it. Hopefully they do, because it's so great. 7/23/25

They are attentive, respectful, mindful, thorough, and consistent. The psychiatrist I saw was willing to listen to my mental problems and I think June the therapist was a very sweet lady there to just listen which I can always appreciate. I really like the dentist I see. She and the assistants make me feel comfortable and they seem non judgemental. I have the nastiest teeth for a 32 year old. Tsk tsk on me. The substance abuse counselor, Mr. Felix was such a breath of fresh air. He went at my pace and we set realistic goals for my road to recovery. I will always choose their services over anyone else's except I'm in a program which means I have to see my program's psychiatrist only. Very good people and professional :)
