How the California and Nevada Courts Enabled Abuse: My Story

 On September 24, 2025, the Alameda Superior Court denied my ADA Request (No. 2025-131). This ruling was not only late — leaving me no time to respond before the next hearing — but it also exposed my confidential medical information by circulating it to opposing counsel and county officials. The denial of ADA protections has stripped me of privacy, due process, and meaningful access to the courts.

This is not an isolated event. It is part of a larger pattern of fraud, misrepresentation, and collusion involving multiple attorneys, judges, and jurisdictions — all used by my ex-husband, Matthew Kanninen, to silence me and keep me from protecting myself and my child.

The Lawyers Involved

  • In Nevada, Matthew is represented by Molly Rosenblum. I had a consultation with Ms. Rosenblum years ago, after being referred by another attorney I paid. She yelled at me through the phone while her assistant handled the call, a tactic that now looks designed to let her later deny she had ever worked with me. Despite this prior contact, Rosenblum now represents Matthew in Nevada — a clear conflict of interest.

  • In California, Matthew is represented by Mary Elizabeth Grant, who has coordinated filings in Alameda to secure custody orders behind my back. These filings ignored the standing 2021 order that required a DVRO hearing before any custody changes.

The Court’s Role

Judges in Alameda have allowed these filings to go forward despite:

  • Misrepresentations and false statements that I had warrants or had “fled.”

  • Improper notice, leaving me unable to defend myself.

  • My documented need for ADA accommodations, which were flatly denied.

At the same time, the court has denied me any award of legal fees, leaving me unable to obtain comparable representation. Meanwhile, Matthew exhausts enormous funds to employ multiple lawyers across jurisdictions. This raises serious questions about asset concealment and misuse of the courts to shield financial misconduct.

What This Means

This is not just a custody case. It is a systemic failure in which:

  • Domestic violence survivors are denied protection.

  • Disabled litigants are stripped of ADA rights.

  • Courts in two states are being manipulated to serve the interests of one man with connections and resources.

I believe this pattern rises to the level of a conspiracy and even potential RICO violations — with interstate coordination between Nevada and California courts being used to suppress my rights and silence me.

What Comes Next

Because I cannot get justice in these courts, I am escalating this matter to the White House, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the Civil Rights Division. I am also sharing my story with conservative media and national outlets, because California cannot be allowed to continue using its courts to endanger domestic violence survivors, silence disabled litigants, and strip parents of their rights.

The names are clear: Matthew Kanninen, Molly Rosenblum, Mary Elizabeth Grant, and the judges of Alameda County. Their actions must be scrutinized, because justice in America cannot survive if courts are weaponized against the vulnerable.
