A judge in Elyria, Ohio in the US has ordered a father of four to stop having kids failing to play nearly $100,000 in child support payments.
Asim Taylor, 35, was sentenced to an additional five years’ probation on Wednesday after failing to pay child support for his four children. Taylor pleaded guilty, and now owes more than $96,000 in child support payments.
“I put this condition on for one reason and one reason alone,” Judge James Walther told the defendant at his sentencing, according to the Lorain county Chronicle-Telegram. “It’s your personal responsibility to pay for these kids.”
Taylor’s lawyer, Doug Merril, plans to appeal the case on the grounds that it violates Taylor’s right to privacy, citing a previous Ohio Supreme Court decision.
