We, the undersigned citizens, demand an immediate and transparent investigation into a severe failure of due process in the Johnson County court system regarding the case of Meghann Miller.

This is not a simple custody dispute.

This is a case of a mother being trapped in a legal nightmare, separated from her five children for nearly two years without being charged with a single crime.

The following facts, drawn from public court records, require immediate attention:

ORDER WITHOUT HEARING: On January 29, 2024, Judge Keven O'Grady ordered Meghann Miller to have no contact with her children. This order was reportedly issued without a full evidentiary hearing or prior notice.

ALLEGATIONS "UNSUBSTANTIATED": The order was based on abuse allegations. However, the Kansas Department of Children and Families (DCF) investigation was closed in June 2024 because the allegations were "unsubstantiated."

7-MONTH NOTIFICATION DELAY: Despite the case being closed in June 2024, Ms. Miller was not formally notified of this fact until January 22, 2025—a delay of over seven months, during which time she remained separated from her children based on those same unsubstantiated claims.

CASE HELD OPEN: This "unsubstantiated" report was allegedly held open unnecessarily by the Guardian ad Litem, Randy McCalla, far past the standard 60-day window, obstructing Ms. Miller's path to reunification.

CHILDREN NOT RETURNED: Despite DCF finding the allegations unsubstantiated over a year ago, Ms. Miller’s children have not been returned.

TRIAL CANCELED: A trial scheduled for April 2025 was reportedly canceled by Judge O'Grady due to outstanding guardian ad litem fees, leaving Ms. Miller with no apparent legal path to see her children.

A "temporary" order has been used to create a de facto permanent separation for over 21 months.

This is a potential violation of Ms. Miller's fundamental constitutional right to due process.

By signing this petition, I am demanding action.

We call on Kansas legislators, judicial oversight bodies, and the media to use the power of their office to:

LAUNCH AN IMMEDIATE AUDIT of this case and its handling by the Johnson County District Court and the appointed Guardian ad Litem.

CALL FOR A LEGISLATIVE INQUIRY into the use of "temporary orders" that remove children without a timely evidentiary hearing, especially in cases where allegations are proven unsubstantiated.

DEMAND THAT DUE PROCESS BE RESTORED for Meghann Miller immediately.

We expect a justice system that protects families, not one that traps them in procedural loopholes.

We expect answers and action.
