“If my children were in danger,
you wouldn’t need to lie to the court.
But you did.
Which means they weren’t.”
— A Mother Who Took the Department of Social Development to Court for Filing Fiction
This formal legal application, submitted by F Chambers on behalf of Polly Chromatic, moves to dismiss the Department of Social Development’s request for a twelve-month Supervision Order filed in September 2020.
What makes this filing extraordinary isn’t just its precision — it’s that it exposes a full procedural collapse of lawful safeguarding under the Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance 2015.
🧾 I. Seven Legal Grounds. No Leg to Stand On.
The application asserts that the state's case must be dismissed because:
The file includes dated, misleading, and erroneous information
It is a blatant abuse of court process
The department failed to meet basic statutory obligations under sections 4, 9, 12, 18, and 22
It overreaches its legal authority — notably by trying to control passports
The department didn’t notify the mother or children as required by law
It fails to disclose harm — the legal threshold for any such order
It wastes court time and diverts resources from real safeguarding needs
📌 II. Why This Filing Matters
It shifts the narrative from defence to prosecution of the process itself
It forces the department to justify its paperwork — not just its posture
It sends a message: “You cannot weaponise safeguarding without evidence and expect no resistance.”
🧠 III. SWANK Commentary
This isn’t just about getting a case dismissed.
It’s about getting a state narrative unmasked.
Because when the only harm is the application itself —
The court becomes the crime scene.
