A study by Tel Aviv University analyzed 538 family court rulings from 2009 to 2019. The researchers found that in the name of activism, the judges trampled on the laws of the state.
In doing so, they harmed women, children and all divorcees, they say. The result is chaos, as the researchers note, in uncertainty regarding the terms "mother custody" or "joint custody" Since these are not defined by law, each judge interprets them according to his wishes.
