Colorado's controversial parenting evaluators get immunity from civil lawsuits, judge rules

IMO this is a hit piece by feminists who want to cancel this custody evaluator. Now his name and reputation have been besmirched in the newspaper when no wrong doing was found.

It is well known that court appointed professionals cannot be personally sued for their legal opinion or none would ever do the job. This includes all kinds of court appointed experts. Surely the attorney who brought this case knew this.

The article makes it clear that this is well worn legal ground:

In August, District Court Judge Robert Gunning dismissed a lawsuit against former parental evaluator Mark Kilmer because he found Kilmer was a court-appointed professional and as such had “absolute immunity from civil litigation.”
“This is mandated by longstanding legal principles and precedent, and is not intended to minimize the gravity of the complaint’s allegations, or the impact defendant Kilmer’s alleged actions have had on plaintiffs,” Gunning wrote in his ruling.

The evaluator is guilty of finding 6 mothers to be guilty of false accusations. We don't know how many he evaluated. So we don't know the percentage but we do know he was reported to the licensing board and there was no finding of incompetence.

This is a smear campaign meant to scare custody evaluators from making the findings of false allegation.

Just more proof your kids are not yours, they belong to the State.

It wasn’t clear to me what his bias was, but regardless, if child custody awards were based on his biased reports, he or the court he serves should be sued.

I strongly disagree that because someone is court appointed, they should get a free pass from actions resulting from their prejudice. If someone’s gender bias in their job, has repercussions on people, they should be held accountable regardless of which sex they favored.

Stop having kids. Watch the system collapse. The state won't be afford these fucking evaluators then.
