Minneapolis Family Law Attorney

Dr. Amir Sanjari, a British citizen, former nuclear physicist and U.S. resident, was found guilty in the U.S. of four felony counts for failing to support his two children by a jury. He was charged with two felony C charges for owing child support in excess of k for 2 children, and also two felony D charges for owing less than k. He faces10 years in prison. Sanjari claims his case is really about judicial corruption and no constitutional protections for him to parent and directly support his children.

Family courts violate the constitutional rights of a parent by robbing a fit parent (overwhelmingly a father) of his right to directly raise and support his children. Then the court orders him to pay the mother an enormous fraction of his income – sometimes more than he earns -for whatever she wants to use it for – under the name of ‘child support’.

Amir, who was never found unfit, was robbed of his children by the court. He was ordered to pay an exorbitant amount of child support above what he was earning. The court would not lower it even when he lost his job. He fought to share custody of his children equally with the mother as his fundamental right. He was dedicated to helping his children and preserving his constitutional rights which included his parental rights.

Unable to pay the child support ordered, he had faced contempt charges and jail in his state court. Penniless, he learned the law. He then fought in his state court and then in federal court against blatant corruption in the court systems that clearly denied his constitutional right to parent and support his children.

He had to move out of state and hide from the authorities while he litigated his case in federal courts. He realized – as so many others have – that the courts refuse to follow constitutional due process and by doing so, are becoming more corrupt than ever. He fought for some 9 years.

While litigating his case, Amir helped other fathers with their cases and was part of the fathers rights movement. He understood the deterioration of father rights and advocated that fathers fight back to reacquire their parental rights unjustly denied them.

To protest the injustice he has faced, Amir has maintained a hunger strike which has severely harmed his health. He believes that more fathers should stand up to the injustice and actively speak out for their constitutional rights to parent their children after divorce, otherwise court injustice will grow.

He knows that courts keep pushing the envelope into unlawful acts and prerogatives. A good example of the latter is the overuse of judicial immunity that protects corrupt behavior of judges. Additionally, the court’s decisions MUST be in accordance with constitutional rights. It does NOT matter if the parties to the suit are both parents or one is the State. Still, each parent has constitutional rights and when two fit parents are pitted against each other in court, then the decision HAS TO still comport to maintaining those parental rights for each. Payment of unconstitutional child support not only does not help our children, but helps perpetuate these court-based crimes against fathers and their children. This evil needs to be nipped in the bud as soon as possible. The sooner more people stand up against this system – and not just talk about it – the sooner it will end.

We are told that approximately 300 fathers per month commit suicide as a result of divorce/custody related issues. These dead fathers evidently didn’t have the courage of their convictions or were weighed down by the oppressive tactics of the divorce system imposes on fathers. If they were strong enough they would’ve stood up and refused to comply with oppressive orders against them and show their children the spirit of fighting injustice and corruption. Then, they would have achieved something instead of simply ending their own lives.

But in part, they were let down by those fathers who are alive but not taking action to undermine this corrupt judicial system that persecutes fathers. It is no secret that almost every one refuses to act for himself or to help other fathers to take meaningful steps in fighting this injustice against children and their fathers. Hence, those who are living have to bear some moral responsibility for those who committed suicide in frustration of the court-imposed tyranny against them as fathers. Too many fathers have lost sight of the spirit of 1776. Not fighting against the injustice will indeed doom us and our children to suffer the kind of corrupt government and judiciary we have now.

Gather your courage and speak up now for your rights.
