    A Child's Voice Will Be Heard in Parental Termination Hearing

    By Kathleen Creamer 
and John Pollock | September 11, 2017

    As attorneys who represented amici in the recent Pennsylvania Supreme Court case In re L.B.M., we write to respond to the June 26, public interest ­column describing the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's decision in that case, ("Providing a Voice for the Child in Court"). With respect for our colleagues at the Support Center for Child Advocates, we believe that this column understates both the breadth and the clarity of the court's holding in that case.

    Matrimonial Practice columnist Timothy M. Tippins writes: Justice Potter Stewart famously quipped that although he could not define pornography, "I know it when I see it." Bias presents the opposite problem. It can be readily defined but you do not necessarily know it when you see it. Given that custody evaluators are as susceptible to bias as anyone else and because bias can destroy the reliability of their conclusions, it is imperative that lawyers and judges be able to recognize its telltale signs.
