FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

In what may be described as the most sweeping challenge to date upon our nation’s draconianchild control laws surrounding Title IV-D of the Social Security Act, New York Civil RightsAdvocate Leon R. Koziol, J.D. has filed a comprehensive test case in United States DistrictCourt in Albany, New York. Named in the action are judicial and law enforcement officials,including New York’s Chief Justice and Unified Court System. The lawsuit, served upon selectparties this week, takes aim at “custody” and “child support” laws which alienate children fromtheir parents as part of a government money generating scheme. A 39 page, 24 count civilcomplaint sets forth the manner in which lawyers and forensic agents feed off of manufacturedcontroversies in domestic relations courts to harm parent-child relations and the financialstability of mainstream households. According to Koziol, it is a process which is harming theproductivity of an entire nation.Until his public stance against the legal profession in recent years, Mr. Koziol enjoyed anunblemished 23 year career as a constitutional rights attorney. His accomplishments include sixfigure jury verdicts on behalf of race, gender and free speech victims. In 2004, he secured a final judgment in New York Supreme Court declaring unconstitutional the operation of the largestcasino in that state. He has appeared on the CBS Program “60 Minutes”, New York Times andCNN, among other national mediums. The current action provides a startling look at the mannerin which government actors are suppressing free speech, due process and the People’s libertyinterests in childrearing. Mr. Koziol is seeking similar victims of courtroom abuses to join thisaction and transform it to class action status. Support is needed behind his sacrificial cause onbehalf of “parents similarly situated”. As the holiday season approaches, Mr. Koziol hopes totarget family preservation issues and the scheduling of a national parenting rights convention.###
