In the Matter of Sarah Doe and Mary Doe, Pet. Nos. NNG-06-000012 and NNG-06-000012 (R.I. Fam Ct. 2008).
Status: Injunction issued; cert. denied, (R.I. 2008).

In January 2008, a family court judge ordered retired minister Rev. Anne Grant, who heads the Parenting Project at the Mathewson Street United Methodist Church in Providence, to remove material from her “The Custody Scam” blog (www.custodyscam.blogspot.com) relating the story of the custody dispute over two girls. (Although the girls’ names are not given on the blog, they and their mother are pictured.) Grant asked the Rhode Island Supreme Court to review the case, but it declined.
