Review of Ottawa County Friend of the Co...

Enigmatic. Unhelpful.

Enigmatic. Unhelpful.

FOC is a lot like unsuspectingly walking into a haunted house that was owned by Scrooge McDuck. You go there wondering why you cant find anyone to help you and when you finally do find someone they just disappear behind a wall or emails. By the time they are done, you will be much poorer and are constantly haunted by them but only whenever you owe money.

Exhibit A: I have been going to this court several times a year and have never met my caseworker in person.

Exhibit B: In my email box right now sits an email that my caseworker sent to me "correcting" me with the incorrect walk in date. Yes. I was intentionally given the wrong walk in date so my caseworker could avoid me.

Exhibit C: I have yet to be contacted by this court house unless I owe money.

Lets be real. Why does Ottawa even need a court house? Fire everyone except the judges and just use written correspondence. It would be the same thing as the system in place but would save your tax payers a great deal of stress, trouble, and resources.
