A Contra Costa County parent who was deemed by the juvenile court Judge Lois Haight and Child Protective Services to have "anger management issues" received an independent evaluation by the Director of the Anger Management Institute within the County, who did not concur with the assessment of CPS and the court. The specialist declared, after 7 months of evaluating the parent, that there is no evidence or any trace of anger management issues with this mother.
This assessment that was contrary to Judge Haight and CPS's claims prompted the court to demand that the court be able to speak to the specialist directly so that the court could give their opinion of the mother's medical condition (the court, Judge Haight, and CPS has no clinical or medical expertise in this area) in an attempt to sway the physician's opinion of the mother's mental health.
