When family proceedings drag on, should courts report not just case duration, but the time children spend without safe contact? What would meaningful delay monitoring measure? #FamilyJustice #FamilyCourtReform

Contact proceedings: § 155 FamFG says the first hearing should take place within one month of proceedings beginning—not that the case must be finished then. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/famfg/__155.html #FamilyJustice #FamilyCourtReform

A family-law reform is only real when courts can apply it. Clear statutory tests, deadlines, reasons and reviewable safeguards matter more than slogans. Children and parents need predictable procedure—not another stalled promise. #FamilyCourtReform #FamilyJustice #ChildrensRights

Practical reform test: does family law reduce conflict early, hear children appropriately, and prevent interim arrangements from hardening through delay? Reform should be measured by outcomes, not announcements. #FamilyCourtReform #FamilyJustice #ChildrensRights

A reform promise is not a safeguard. If Kindschaftsrecht reform remains stalled, which measurable protections should come first: faster hearings, reasoned interim orders, enforceable contact—or independent review? #FamilyCourtReform #FamilyJustice #ChildrensRights

Family-court delay is not neutral. When interim contact arrangements last for months, temporary facts can harden into the status quo. Courts need early case management, clear timetables and enforceable steps—not rights that exist only on paper. #FamilyJustice #Article8 #FamilyCourtReform
