When a case completely falls apart in court, ACS offers what is called an ACD to the parent. This is an Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal. This means that if the parent abides by certain ACS demands the case will be dismissed after 6 months or a year. This can be a very tricky offer. It may appear like the parent is getting a break, but in fact, ACS is setting the parent up to fail and violate the terms. Make sure to have your attorney review the terms carefully and understand exactly what ACS is demanding. Brooklynacslawyer.com
We are often asked by parents; how do I file a complaint against the abusive ACS worker. The first thing we advise is not to file an complaints with anyone at ACS. ACS supervisors are there to protect their paychecks and their jobs. They will usually stone wall the parent into giving up. The goal of the ACS supervisors is to ensure that the parents follow the demands of ACS. Also, we do not suggest filing a complaint with any local political office. ACS is so dysfunctional that they are immune to any political pressure of any kind. Mayor Deblasio has failed to correct the problems at ACS and the agency is simply on cruise control with no one in control. The most effective way to file a complaint against an ACS worker is to file suit in federal court. This will get the workers attention and take them out of their comfort zone. We urge parents to obtain an attorney as fast as possible and begin the process of a lawsuit. The federal courts are a neutral place for parents to bring
