About The Site Author

Jim is a Born Again Christian who believes in his Unalienable Rights endowed to him by his Creator. After leaving the Military in 1995, he has worked as a Technology Specialist and studied Constitutional Law in his spare time.

Jim is a due process advocate for fathers facing family-court and child-support enforcement issues, and an opponent of the Title IV-D incentive-driven enforcement that undermines transparency, notice, and lawful authority.

Jim’s wife, Monica, three children, and Jim live as free natural people.
