Man sent to jail for failure to pay $127,000 in child support
http://www.boston.com/news/local/con...ort/?page=full
Man sent to jail for failure to pay $127,000 in child support April 9, 2008 VALPARAISO, Ind.-A Connecticut man was sentenced to a year in jail for failing to pay $127,000 in child support to an Indiana woman who is the mother of two of his children. Porter County Superior Court Judge Mary R. Harper also ordered three years of probation for Andrew Givens, who was handcuffed and clad in a business suit in court Tuesday while several other prisoners wore orange prison outfits. The 48-year-old Riverside, Conn., man apologized before his sentencing, saying he did not intend to deny his children the payments. Givens pleaded guilty on Oct. 25 to a felony charge of failing to pay child support for becoming delinquent on payments to Jennifer Donohue, a Portage woman who is mother to his children, ages 11 and 13. Defense attorney Robert Plantz had argued against prison time, saying Givens also has to support a child in Kansas and another in Connecticut. "There's four little mouths to feed here," Plantz said. Givens was being held in the Porter County Jail. ------ Information from: The Times, http://nwitimes.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first line is classic - "A Connecticut man was sentenced to a year in jail for failing to pay.." Which, if I remember correctly, jailing someone for non-payment of a debt is illegal.. but what the hell, who needs to observe the Law of the Land, eh? Everybody welcome the return of Debtor's Prison! Coming to a county near you.. |

Jailtime is not a required enforcement tool, and it is up to the States attorney to prosecute for criminal child support, and Maryland doesn't. A NCP only goes to jail on a body attachment for FTA. Sometimes there is a bond that can be issues to child support to go towards the arrears, but as long as you show up to court, you're free. If what you say is true, that MD does indeed prosecute for criminal child support, then there will be a lot of working black mothers sueing the state for discrimination because their orders are not being enforced for non- payment. I know one woman that's owed over $20,000.00 and they keep telling her that there's nothing they can do because MD doesn't prosecute criminal child support. Perhaps the state is discriminating against black women, because that is what they are being told. Do you have any proof as to anyone being prosecuted in Maryland for criminal child support, or going to jail for child support, and NOT a body attachment? If not-STFU because it is you who are misinformend. |

If not-STFU because it is you who are misinformend. You are making a straw man argument. By calling the non-payment of support "criminal child support" you are setting up a name for an offense no state has. Instead, states call the offense "contempt" and that can lead to incarceration in Maryland just like any other state. Here is the reference for Maryland CSE measures. Scroll down to contempt. http://www.dhr.state.md.us/csea/enf.htm There are federal criminal CS laws and enforcement mechanisms. Obviously, these laws are prosecuted by federal prosecutors, not state prosecutors. Here is a reference for the federal CSE laws. http://www.justice.gov/criminal/ceos/child_support.htm |
