If there's an ounce of justice that piece of shtein will experience every bit of karmic justice the universe can dish out. 

So

If
     Justice = true;
Then
     All of the Justice;
Else
     Not all of the Justice;


Right?

It was my understanding there would be no math...

I just conducted my first family law non support hearing.  SD would be so proud.

No, going before a judge to convince him not to put my client in jail for nonpayment.

Hope you got your money up front.

I actually have no clue what the fee arrangement is.  I covered it for a partner at the firm who represents him for his divorce. 

I will also say the circumstances reminded me of how farged up our system can be.

Dude is paying child support.  He has an alcohol problem.  He gets a second DUI and is imprisoned  from January to April.  Not a rich guy to start with.  While in jail he's fired, falls behind on his payments obviously.  About 7 weeks after he gets out he goes in front a judge on a contempt hearing for nonpayment.   Gets thrown in jail for 90 more days (yes, great idea to imprison guy again for nonpayment when he fell behind because was in jail).  He gets out end of September and makes three small payments until he checks himself into an in patient rehab center from end of October to December 6th.   Now has a job and brought basically all the money he had to court today for another hearing to determine whether he needs to go to jail...again.   For nonpayment.

So what has been setup is basically debtor's prison.  You get imprisoned for dui but fall behind in payments for that and are therefore punished in perpituity because your bill keeps running while you're in jail so that you can never pay it.  Makes absolutely no sense.

Wow - the vicious cycle of the justice system at work.

And why can't judges see this? What do they expect him to do?
