Rankin v. Rankin

Rankin v. Rankin: A Father's Divorce and Custody Fight within the Mississippi Judicial System is primarily designated to enlighten men of the triumphs, bias, discrimination, legality, and "gray areas" of seeking fairness during a contested divorce and parental custody. Through the experience of the prementioned case and its articulation, men should be able to have a foundation to realistically understand an ensuing divorce or custody fight for themselves or provide effective support to a colleague. Secondly, women who read this "case study" should consider advocating for truth related to divorce and paternal rights as an "equal fight under the law," not intertwined with other social issues or a play in support of femineity. Although this published work is from a male's perspective, both estranged husbands and wives, courts, and child advocacy institutions can glean knowledge from Rankin v. Rankin by understanding parts of the previously unknown backstories.
