IMPORTANT COURT CASE MAY AFFECT SWINGERS WITH CHILDREN NATIONWIDE!!!

URGENT NOTICE TO RESPONSIBLE PARTICIPANTS IN THE ADULT LIFESTYLE

This Notice is directed to all swingers, exotic dancers, adult
business owners and anyone involved in the adult industry. There is a
very important legal case going on in the state of Florida which can
affect everyone in the swinging and adult community nationwide who
has children under the age of 18.

Deltadawn who is a fairly well known member of the swinging community
in the Tampa Florida area has lost her right to see her 2 1/2 year
old baby girl simply due to being a swinger. Deltadawn had shared
custody of her 2 1/2 year old baby girl with her "ex," who happens to
be an attorney. He found out that she was in the swinging lifestyle
and has filed a motion with the Hernando County Court of Florida to
remove all of her parental rights, primarily on the basis of her
swinger lifestyle.

THE OUTCOME OF THIS CASE COULD HAVE VERY SERIOUS AND
DETRIMENTAL REPERCUSSIONS FOR EVERYONE IN THE ADULT LIFESTYLE.

The outcome of this case is critical and could set precedent for
everyone involved in any form of the adult lifestyle nationwide. If
the argument that participating in the adult lifestyle reflects
adversely on parental rights, losing this case could open a Pandora's
Box for lifestylers with children across the country. An adverse
decision in this action could mean that anyone, gay or straight, with
children could be at risk of losing their children and having their
parental rights stripped away, simply because of the lifestyle that
we all enjoy. Swingers and everyone in the adult entertainment
industry would have to live in fear that they may be turned in and
could lose their children simply because of our lifestyle choice.

WINNING THIS CASE COULD HELP ESTABLISH CASE PRECEDENT AND HELP
PROTECT OUR PARENTAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

Winning this case will mean loving parents do not have to live in
fear that our legal system, some governmental agency, or some
adversarial parent, will have the ability right to terminate your
parental rights or take your children, simply because of a lifestyle
choice that never involves well nurtured children.

The rejection of private sexual lifestyle as a basis for terminating
parental rights will set precedent that could serve to protect those
in the lifestyle or in the adult entertainment business from
unjustified intrusions into their personal lives. Under the U.S.
Constitution we should have the right to our lifestyle choice without
censure, condemnation and fear of losing our children.

Deltadawn has retained Luke Lirot as her attorney in her fight to
maintain her parental rights. Luke Lirot is one of the premier
Constitutional and adult civil rights attorneys in the country (you
can do an internet search of him to verify his credentials). He is
constantly traveling all over the country defending peoples civil
rights and is a true champion of justice. He is constantly in the
newspaper and often appears on television nationwide. As any lawyer,
he depends on his clients to provide him with a living, and Justice
comes at a price. Deltadawn needs your help...

We need all people involved in the swinging community and adult
industry, nationwide, to reach into their pockets and contribute to
her legal defense fund by donating what help they can to attorney
Luke Lirot.

THE OUTCOME OF THIS CASE COULD HELP US ALL

POST SCRIPT FROM LUKE LIROT:

This legal battle is truly tough. Deltadawn's lifestyle experiences
are being used as a weapon to try and take a loving child, much in
need of her mother's love, away from her. To stop this effort, we
must employ every possible tool at our disposal. We need the services
of psychologists, social workers, and other professionals to show
that Lifestyle characteristics, never revealed or foisted on any
child, have no detrimental impact on children.

Under Florida law, like virtually every other jurisdiction in the
nation, the factors evaluated by the courts are whether parental
contact "is in the best interests of the child." To do this, we need
to show that participation in the Lifestyle, in and of itself, does
not make anyone a bad parent.

There are only a few formalities. Under Florida Law, Rule 4-1.8(f) of
the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar governs "Compensation by Third
Party," and allows for parties unrelated to the litigation to pay
fees and costs on the clients behalf.

The Rule states:
Compensation by Third Party. A lawyer shall not accept compensation
for representing a client from one other than the client unless:

1)The client consents after consultation;
2)There is no interference with the lawyer's independence or
professional judgment or with the client/lawyer relationship; and
information relating to representation of a client is protected as
required by Rule 4-1.6 (confidentiality of information)."

If these conditions are acceptable to you, and you care about this
important case, we would welcome your help.

These donations are not tax deductible, but they are evidence of true
human kindness. Thank you!

Thank you for the info Wanda... If government tried to judge us as parents simply on the basis of whether we were swingers or not, DC would be hearing a WHOLE LOT of NOISE from us... :@
So there's another good reason to help support this cause, thanks for the imput uriah
We hope things work out well for her and will be contributing to her defense fund.

Another reason why discretion is so important in the lifestyle. Not sure how her ex found out about her lifestyle but obviously shows the damage that can be done as debated in several other forums.

We wish her the best of luck!
Thanks all for your imput and support!
Gee I wonder how the ex husband intends to prove her lifestyle choices? Subpoena couples/people she has "been with"? That would certainly upset people who wish to remain discreet as all this would be public record.

If it came to a choice between being in the lifestyle or losing my children, I would give up the lifestyle and never look back. Understanding that past activities still weigh in, but even people who are alcoholics who have stopped drinking do not always have their custody taken away based on their past actions. If she got out of the lifestyle and say went to a "sex addicts" group and showed she was willing to "cure" her urges, it might go a long way in the court.

Just my 2 cents.....
Hey Wicked,

I hope you don't mind, but I went ahead and shared this info to a couple of swingers groups (with credit to swinular of course) about this case. What a crock! As if these folks who seem to have it "together" truly don't have anything else to do but to focus on this lifestyle. Oh well, such is the life. We'll give them the support as they need it.

Wow, that's the land of the free????
We don't get the stupid and ridiculous laws in this country. We are glad that we move back to Germany soon. We are tired of all these laws and "no do's" - especially here in UTAH.
And what is this anyways? We thought as soon as you are an adult, you can do whatever you want -on a legal basis of course- and chose your personal "way of life". Why does the American government always try to mould mature people???
Maybe someone out there is able to answer these questions for us....
And especially in the Deltadawn case - did she take her little one to one of these EVIL parties - we would guess no, right?!

Take care everyone and peace on earth
I can understand peopl getting upset IF what the parents do is detrimental to a child's welfare. But to use what a person does that does not affect the child; the child has seen nothing, or nothing untoward has been said around or to the child nor done around the child...is chriminal in it's own right...IMHO. As for the government getting involved in moral issues or ethical issues or the churches getting involved for the same reasons is absolutely ludicrous. Look at the politicians in DC and maybe in your own city or state.... The scandals and the people who are getting indited. How many of these religious leaders, ministers and priests are getting caught with their pants down or their body parts where they don't belong.....

No government can legislate morals nor ethics to anyone. Morals and ethics and government and or religion are not even compatable terms... Religion has been responsible for more deaths and wars because of morals and ethics than any other factor throughout history.

I hope that the defense lawyer finds a good number of skeletons in the plaintifs closet and puts this whole issue to rest. While not the same impact, a Sherrif in a small town was, while trying to get re-elected got national coverage in NC over a swing club. People were exposed and the owners had to take their child out of a private school and put her in another school in another state because of the publicity.

How much is done because of greed, and the publicity it can muster. Why is the religious right spreading so much hate when they are supposed to be doing good and teaching goodness.....

Sorry to get on a soap box but we all need to remember things like this when we vote. If the person says values, morals or ethics or uses words like church, religion or has ties to oil or big business vote against them. Get involve in the political process' that get people nominated for any offices... We need simple people who just want to get a job done and Serve their community, city or country and go back to their lives when they finish that term... We are the reason that "THEY" get to be so powerful... "THEY" government and "THEY" religious leaders.. they are just men and women too... Not some demigods
This case has nothing to do with setting a national precedent. It is simply a bitter divorce dispute. They are just throwing mud back & forth. When you go into any legal battle you go in with the idea you are going to absolutely knock them out, no holds barred. It is the only way to win.

Everybody needs to settle down and relax after all it is just a divorce.
UTCPL is absolutely right.
Besides that, when we joined that website we thought we would have a lot of fun. What we didn't expect was to hear of all these problems couples have in their private lifes and being a topic in the local news *lol* (Greetings to KSL) ;-)
Bravo UTCPL well said we all need to choose our battles this one although somewhat disheartening for the individuals involved is as stated a somewhat bitter divorce case which will be handled in the juristiction of Florida under Florida domestic laws. Child custody has gone through many iterations in many venues and juristictions and has in most cases been found that outside behavior of an individual which does not directly involve the child does not determine the ability of the parent to maintain an equitable and loving relationship with the child and therefore does not taint the ability of the individual to be a good parent Although the ultimate decision lies in the hands of the judge (if he is a wise judge he will allow the experts to resolve this, experts meaning the two lawyers) he will be the last say though and if he hasn't gotten lucky in a while he might not be willing to have compassion. But who knows! Lady Justice has that blindfold on for a reason. If this womans husband as I understand it is an attorney and he is defending himself well, as Ben Franklin so adiquately said it...."A man who represents himself in a court of law has a fool for a client" .....and there you have it. We wish this couple much luck and in any case hope the best for the children and there relationship with both parents.
HEY THANKS FOR THE INFO I THINK THE GOVERNMENT NEED TO STAY THE HELL OUT OUR PRIVATE LIVES OUR NATION IS "NOT WE THE PEOPLE" IT'S MORE THE GOVERNMENT TAKING CONTROL OF OUR LIVES AND TO THINK WE PAY THEM THROUGH OUR TAXES WHAT HAVE THEY DONE FOR US "WE THE PEOPLE" JUST PUTTING MY 2 CENTS IN MRS.READYSET
unfortunately these things happen in divorces.
i have a limited knowledge of the legal system however i do know that in order to remove custody you have to PROVE that there was wrong doing or that the child was in danger. in danger of what is up to interpretation.
i don't see how anyone, engauged in the lifestyle on a casual basis, aside from having sex in front of there children could be causing any harm, however.....
i have seen delta dawn in the past, and i have read many of her posts as well. while we know near nothing about her, we have heard many hints and allegations of prostitution on her behalf. mainly due to the fact that she organizes gang bang parties very openly on some swing sites and then charged men to attend? thats not too smart if you asked me, and especialy not smart if you have an attorney for an ex-husband. the rest of this sounds like a bunch of leagal mumbo jumbo, and for those of us that are just casually in this, i doubt we have much to worry about.

GEE PEOPLE, IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT COUNTRY WE LIVE IN, THIS SHIT IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE, FOR COUPLES WHO HAVE GONE THROUGH A DIVORCE WITH CHILDREN... BELIEVE ME WE KNOW.

IF YOUR DISCREET! I GUESS THIS GOS TO SHOW YOU REALLY CANT TRUST A HOLE LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE? SO GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BATTLE, WE FEEL FOR YOU! AMAANDA N HADEN :)
Wow, What is this donation to the cause crap? It is total crap to be on this site soliciting for divorce money because the hubby is using her lifestyle against her. I may donate to his legal fund though due to her attempt to con legal fees from the rest of us here. Give me a break, get a tin cup and a box of pencils but get the he11 off here. This is not your local welfare hotline.
This is something that is very upseting to all of us. We truely feel sorry for her and any other people that have to go through this. But look at it this way with enough money money in our court of law O.J. can get off that shows us exactly how worthless our judicial system really is . We agree though, our children come first before all else. If this turns the wrong way and not in our favore than at least we can all say we are better people out of this and we don't know about you but we have meet alot of very nice peolpe in this lifestyle. Thank you for the headsup and please please keep us posted if anything else comes up. Thank you from marriedbtplayful in Florida.
Well said, Utcpl.


Donations? Really?

I'll donate the back of a brown box, and a black magic marker. Stand out in front of Walmart, you'll do better asking for donations there. Maybe wear a red suit and bring a hand bell.

Sheesh. Another worthless "cause" trying to solicit funds for some bogus court proceeding. I'd be really surprised if this was a real court case, anyhow. It's a sad world we live in when other people try to load their problems on someone else.



A&K (The Mr.)
Nice comment "coupleinsouthutah" Lets start a fund for tin cups, pencils, magic markers and card board. Now I will donate $.65 cents towards that if I can get an address.
