HARTFORD, CT – In a move that could have far-reaching implications for the Connecticut Family Court system, Theodora Antar, a law school student and mother, has filed a RICO complaint against over 300 judges and court professionals.
The suit was filed this week in the US District Court for the District of Connecticut.
While full details of the lawsuit will be reported on in subsequent articles, initial documents reveal that Antar’s allegations span from fraud and civil conspiracy to commit fraud, to abuse of process and violations of the Federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
Antar is in her second year of law school at the University of Connecticut School of Law.
One of Antar’s contentions is the misuse of federal funds, alleging that Connecticut has misappropriated billions of dollars designated for non-profit tax-exempt organizations. These organizations are intended to assist impoverished individuals in securing legal representation. Antar claims, “none of them actually help.”
In a deeply personal battle intertwined with her legal actions, Antar is currently involved in a custody dispute over her daughter.
According to her, Judge Jane Kupson Grossman utilized the concepthas resulted in Antar being separated from her daughter for two months.
Antar told FR, “The same individuals sit on executive boards for all these nonprofits, and it’s these state actors that are stealing money, laundering cash, and taking from the marginalized who can’t fight back.”
She emphasizes the gravity of her personal situation by stating, “I’ve always been a good mother to my children. It’s bewildering that the courts can restrict my access to my child, yet I can’t even secure a no-contact order against my ex for his harassment.”
The complaint, which Antar personally wrote, paints a picture of an intricate web of schemes allegedly aimed at defrauding not only the federal government but also the most vulnerable members of the Connecticut community.
While these are serious allegations with potentially significant implications, they will undergo rigorous scrutiny in the legal process. The case’s progress and the court’s findings will be watched closely, not only by those named in the complaint but also by those affected by the family court system throughout the state.
Read Antar’s lawsuit here:
Antar’s first named defendant Judge Jane Kupson Grossman, she iterates, is the Presiding Judge and AAJ for the Post-Judgment Family Division of the New Haven Superior Court, New Haven, CT, the former President of the Family Law Section of the New Haven County Bar Association, President of the Board of the Connecticut Women’s Education and Legal Fund, former Presiding Judge for Criminal Matters for New Haven Superior Court, former Magistrate Judge for New Haven, Bridgeport, and Waterbury CT, and is an adjunct professor at Quinnipiac University School of Law, in New Haven, CT.

I’m in New York, I too seek to sue under the RICO. In the off chance anyone can get a message out to #TheodoraAntar please ask her to get a hold of me. After running my set of circumstances with several law firms, I’m told that my case will go Class action, Tort reform and will elevate to the SCOTUS. Unfortunately, the firms I consulted with are too small to take on the work load.. I seek to sue the courts, state, AG’s office, and all others who injected themselves into this mess. Implied immunity is waved when conspiring against an individual and deprive them of their constitutional protected rights. This will require a larger law firm. My contact info ( email) is in the signup. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you feel you can be of help or a larger law firm who seeks to help alienated parents.
I admire your courage im a victim of courts from my fathers estate and partition to separate properties sistet attorney in councilor of bar guild and he’s abusing his power I can be reached at 910 361 2220 im in North Carolina
See my thread above yours.
She needs to make this a class action lawsuit because other people like myself are victims with evidence that no other lawyer will take. And I know I’m not the only one because children’s lives and families lives are being violated and destroyed for profit by a criminal syndicate hiding behind the guise of government with no regard for people’s lives or the lives of their children, and elected officials have failed in their fiduciary duties as trustee’s to keep and secure the rights of the people who elected them by using the commerce clause of the United States constitution without giving us full disclosure of enrollment, estate’s, trusts, contracts, legal agreements, charges, loans, liens, bonds and other security instruments unknown to us thru identity theft, fraud, extortion, coercion, child trafficking, breech of trust and treason, the deprivation of our rights under the color of law, oaths violations, impersonating officers of the United States, violating the fundamental rights to raise one’s children without interference, due process violations allowing hearsay evidence of an anonymous call and the right to face one’s accuser. Plus multiple other crimes and violations, but this is to long so I’ll just stop for now.
Through my experience in the court system with a guardiaship case, these lawyers and judges are complicited in the crimes. Because in America today, a stranger can legally take control of your finances, remove you from your home, sell your assets, take away your rights including your right to vote, and separate you from your friends and family, despite objections, and profit from the entire horrific ordeal.
Can we please get a group together & fill a class action lawsuit. I really need her paperwork

Marin County’s court system in Calif is equally a travesty. In one case, a mom alleged her partner was molesting the couple’s daughter. But in Marin, the parent who is wealthy wins. So he got full custody of the child. She fought back by kidnapping her daughter and fleeing to Virginia. When arrested by police, and tried in court, she began a 30 yr kidnapping term, even though at the time a stranger abduction would have netted the perp only 10 yrs of prison.
Luckily for her, her former partner went and murdered his new wife. Only then did she end up freed from prisoin and re-united with her daughter.
sounds like ct
Where can I read this in the news ?
God Bless her in her David & Goliath fight may he bring her strength and courage to endure the hell the Judiciary who works for the people will try and inflict on her. I understand your fight and will figure a way to help you.
Thank you for exposing CT family court corruption. It runs deep and is protected by the AGs office.
exactly why they recycle judges from the AG office and rotate them through all the departments
It’s about time someone stands up to this corruption family courts have been destroying more families rather than helping it’s all about the money Best of luck young lady and bring the corruption down
It’s the same in every state. The family courts are corrupt and incompetent. They steal children from their parents seemingly mostly mothers. They are quick to judgment based on perjurous ex parte motions by the abusers stripping all rights of the abused victims to their children. NYS Family Court didn’t get an F by the NYS Blue Ribbon Commission in ethics and accountability for fairness. The more one fights back the more abusive they are.
Yes that’s exactly right, I fought back and haven’t seen or heard from my daughter in nearly 5 years, and this was after finding what seemed to be evidence of my 12 year old daughter being sex trafficked and reporting.
how do we contact her they are committing RICO via cps nationally kids four cash million dollar lawsuits being settled out of court
We are doing this in FL. DCF and the FL certification board are named as conspirators.
Any public contact information available in those states? Is it possible to post general templates for potential federal suits in other states? Good AGs and good DOJ agents might need as much help as they can get these days.
Yes FL removes many Children from migrant families who cannot even speak English. But their largest population of children or poor African American children.
Very good…please keep us informed…
I love it thank u we need your help
I am very happy for her, I hope she is successful and drags with all the damn ones.I am very happy for her, I hope she is successful and drags with all the damn ones.
ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS IN DEMOCRAT STATES ARE SO CORRUPT AND ARE GETTING AWAY WITH TO MUST OF . THESE CORRUPT OFFICIALS MUST BE STOPPED AND PROSECUTED.
I SUPPORT Theodora Antar 100 %
Family court needs to be abolished now. It is corrupt and abusive.
Agreed! They are the biggest crime family in existence!
I don’t think one party has a monopoly on corruption.
It’s happening big time in FL….we are a red state.
What’s happening big time? Can someone post details?
This is not a democrat issue.. this is going on in ALL states not just democrat run states. Hate to burst your bubble but the republicans are just as corrupt if not more so, hiding behind their holier than thou attitudes.
I tried to look up the case and noticed she got arrested yesterday for violation of a protective order… are we being dupped
Funny your comment is anonymous. Probably paid by these criminal judges or are one of them yourself. If she did, indeed, get arrested, no doubt it’s a harassment tactic based on lies that many people in the family court system are suffering from. I hope they all see prison time. They deserve it.
Grossman behind it! No doubt! Stop the corruption!
I’d focus on Jane Emons to get to the root of the issue… she has a direct tie to the Operation and went over her compatriots for personal gain. Idiot. She is the weak link for information… target her for termination from Cohen and Wolf(the firm hiding her). Then get her talking.
Family court needs to be abolished now. It is corrupt and abusive. I support Theodore Antar.
No, that’s just the kind of retaliation that Family Court judges engage in when challenged. It’s an indication that her complaints are legitimate.
Very likely, the judges had her arrested in retaliation for filing the lawsuit in the first place. That is the level of corruption we are dealing with. From local court to the highest offices of our country.
Absolutely true! They will force people into CT to live there and resolve custody disputes whether they are resident or not.
Amen to her,, we are victims ourselves to the blatant Criminality and racketeering schemes of the Ct courts.. our entire family has been thefted and abused while the Criminal Judge Diane Yamin and her criminal friends facilitated a cover up so to protect there racket.. I’ll be glad to answer any questions !! Here’s the case # for your entertainment.. LLI-CV-17-5008481-S. I’ll say it again, Blatant Criminals!!
It’s the same in Texas, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Every judge blatantly giving out orders that are not lawful and violate the defendants rights. All for title IV-D money from the government that supports each state to collect more and more child support money. Family courts need to be abolished now. They are corrupt and abusive.

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS COMMON LAW RIGHT/REMEDY.
SUI JURIS PETITIONER DEMANDS EXECUTION OF CGS 54-170 ARREST WITHOUT WARRANT; AND TRIAL BY JURY.
Scheuer v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 94 S. Ct. 1683, 1687 (1974)
Note: By law, a judge is a state officer. The judge then acts not as a judge, but as a private individual (in his person). When a judge acts as a trespasser of the law, when a judge does not follow the law, the Judge loses subject-matter jurisdiction and the judges’ orders are not voidable, but VOID, and of no legal force or effect. The U.S. Supreme Court stated that “when a state officer acts under a state law in a manner violative of the Federal Constitution, he comes into conflict with the superior authority of that Constitution, and he is in that case stripped of his official or representative character and is subjected in his person to the consequences of his individual conduct. The State has no power to impart to him any immunity from responsibility to the supreme authority of the United States.”
Cooper v. Aaron, 358 U.S. 1, 78 S. Ct. 1401 (1958)
Note: Any judge who does not comply with his oath to the Constitution of the United States wars against that Constitution and engages in acts in violation of the supreme law of the land. The judge is engaged in acts of treason. The U.S. Supreme Court has stated that “no state legislator or executive or judicial officer can war against the Constitution without violating his undertaking to support it”. See also In Re Sawyer, 124 U.S. 200 (188); U.S. v. Will, 449 U.S. 200, 216, 101 S. Ct. 471, 66 L. Ed. 2d 392, 406 (1980); Cohens v. Virginia, 19 U.S. (6 Wheat) 264, 404, 5 L. Ed 257 (1821).
Jenkins v. McKeithen, 395 U.S. 411, 421 (1959); Picking v. Pennsylvania R. Co., 151 Fed 2nd 240 ; Pucket v. Cox,456 2nd 233
“Pro se pleadings are to be considered without regard to technicality; pro se litigants’ pleadings are not to be held to the same high standards of perfection as lawyers.”
Carpenter v. Commissioner, 274 Conn. 834, 843 (2005)
“in certain circumstances, a petitioner’s claim of a constitutional violation is so inextricably bound up in the issue of the effectiveness of trial counsel, that a separate claim of a constitutional violation is not required.”
Bunkley v. Commissioner, 222 Conn. 444, 460-61 (1992)
“The principal purpose of the writ of habeas corpus is to serve as ‘a bulwark against convictions that violate “fundamental fairness.”’”
Corpus Juris Secundum (C.J.S.) legal encyclopedia, volume 7, section 4:
§ 4 ATTORNEY & CLIENT 7 C.J.S.
“His first duty is to the courts and the public, not to the clients, and wherever the duties to his client conflict with those he owes as an officer of the court in the administration of justice, the former must yield to the latter.
The office of attorney is indispensable to the administration of justice and is intimate and peculiar in its relation to, and vital to the wellbeing of, the court. An attorney has a duty to aid the court in seeing that actions and proceedings in which he is engaged as counsel are conducted in a dignified and orderly manner, free from passion and personal animosities, and that all causes brought to an issue are tried and decided on their merits only; to aid the court…”

Family court needs to be abolished now. It is corrupt and abusive. I support Theodore Antar.
[Redacted]
Glad her daughter is safe.
Nothing like the deluded filings of a 2nd year law student.
This is going to be fun to watch. I’m off to buy more popcorn!
Is Theodora related? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Eddie
Ms. Antar has the right idea.
Perhaps a bit overly broad, but the right idea.
The way to break 20+ years of endless spin, repeated myths, and dead ends.
We can all help the cause by refusing to play the Divorce Industry’s ‘mom vs. dad’ game, and by no longer repeatedly falling into that trap.
Thank you Theodora
It’s a madder of people vs years of court abuse. Taking Al the assets. Using funding to fuel custody battles. Failure to protect children. Non evidence based proceeding that ruin people live and ability to prosper again.
Too true. Family court needs to be abolished now. It is corrupt and abusive. I support Theodore Antar. This corruption in court needs to stop. Hold judges accountable. They think they are above the law but need to be jailed for their actions.
Please someone help us here in Arizona! This Family Court system here is corrupt too. We need someone to file a RICO act here. They are trying to take my kids and confiscate my home to pay for reunification therapy!!!
“… In November 2022, the father asked for intense reunification to begin again. A minute entry was then submitted with an order by Judge Stasy Avelar in mid-December 2022 stating that the proceeds from the sale of the home should be used for the intense reunification therapy (tens of thousands of dollars) given the fact that the mother was financially unable to afford the treatment. …”

Are Arizona family court judges sending children to “Overcoming Barriers”?
A corrupt Connecticut judge who “stepped down” from the bench started working for “Overcoming Barriers” after parents found out about the “AFCC Inc.” networks.
https://overcomingbarriers.org/meet-our-team/
Almost all high-conflict divorces involve a psychopath who is using the court system as a tool of abuse. If you’re married to a psychopath, you don’t have a choice about going to Family Court.
[…] week, Frank Parlato reported on a lawsuit filed in Connecticut federal court by Theodora Antar, a law school student and mother. The case […]
I spoke her. She is intelligent. She is definitely not crazy.
I spoke her?
Sweetie, mental illness does not discriminate by IQ.
How very “back the blue” of you! 🙄
There are a few more she’s missing I would l ow to contact her about my story as well
You can tell what a bogus crockpot this whole thing is by the list of “defendants.” This thing about to get dismissed and just shows how far from reality the filer is. You’ll notice several of the people named in it are guys she slept with and then they didn’t want anything to do with her. Classic jilted lover.
This person been arrested many times, has long history of legal issues including assault and lying to cops. She’s been under DCF investigation many times (that’s why she’s filing some crazy legal stuff against them) including for illegally growing marijuana in her basement. I’m a source close to the family and I’ve spoken to them today, notice how she’s filing this against everyone she doesn’t like or has a problem with including her sister and mom?
This isn’t a crusader taking down the government, this is a severely mentally sick person trying to get some half brained revenge against people who don’t like her. She’s in for so many law suits against her for defamation, vexatious litigation, and abuse of process.
Defedent in the suit?
I cant believe shes still doin the same things as years ago and its still being entertained. She is a manipulator and I feel bad for the people who think that she is actually the victim because that little girl is the real victim. The truth will come out as it usually does with her…its just a matter of how many people she sues and has arrested until that happens. This is why children should be taught at an early age you dont kick and scream and throw a tantrum for not hearing what you want to hear or getting your way. Clearly she has not changed her ways.
Are you the daddy?
🤣🤣🤣
This happens in other states surrounding CT as well. Not just CT.
Corruption and incompetence in family courts runs rampant. Judges have way too much subjectivity with little oversight or accountability.

Access and visit grants for the fatherhood initiative. Liaison include the following liaison to provide gender bias funding for family court system matters. Department of social services, Department of Labor, Department of education, judicial branch of court court support enforcement, Department of children and family services, department of correction, Department of mental health and addiction services, All attached to gender bias MOU . It’s not just one man it’s for the most part the entire state. Recruitment and demonstrational need for more federal funding to the state of Connecticut.
Thank you Theodora. Thousands of victims of misogynistic treatment by family courts, stand behind you in support. Visualizing the very best outcome for you and your daughter.
Theodora has a GoFundMe page- let’s support her in her mission!
Men get equally as screwed in other states.
This woman seems perfectly sane.
Not!
Just looking at her picture, you can tell she prob has a few screws loose. Then reading the “lawsuit”…Mamma mia.
Intimidated? Abusers don’t like it when the abuse is outed. Engaging in fraud? People don’t like the people who report it.
Nope, neither. Just an observation from an uninvolved party.
“Uninvolved” party. Aka jane grossman on her burner phone
This girl is a known nut job. Her own mother says she has psychological issues
So nothing she says it true?
Its all true regardless of what the satanic cult members lead u to believe
What other more logical explanation is there for the horrible actions of horrible “leaders” who control our once-beautiful world with orchestrated war and violence instead of peace?
“Russ founded the agency Shatter The Darkness in 1982 to engage extraordinary underground growth of satanic ritual abuse and its connection to the Nazis, government programs, programmed assassins and has spent thousands of hours working with many victims and in investigations of the connection and ritual crimes.”

Well we are on a NXIVM site….
I think alot of the so called crazy behavior is people driven to the brink of madness. Family court is unadulterated torture. 2 years court free and I finally feel like I can breathe and live. I look back and it’s like it was someone else life. I still am in disbelief that the situation happened. Can’t believe how bad the family court system is. I pray for people that have to do go through it. I pray someone will do something about it.
Who are you? Do you have proof? Just a professional license flamer trying to profit off the industry?
I believe she is a psychopath and I am able to make that diagnosis because it is recommended that you don’t actually meet the person you diagnose when they’re a psychopath. You just talk to their ex.
Dr. Bruce Freedman, CT AFCC, Inc. Treasurer, uses that same protocol in custody cases in Connecticut to flip legal/physical custody to identified perpetrators of sexual abuse.
Apparently, the Connecticut Department of Public Health has never had a problem with that.
No investigations, no sanctions, no loss of professional license and no loss of business, so the practice of remote viewing diagnostics must be officially legit. It looks like that particular business practice is allowed in the state.
Data on how many children in the state Dr. Freedman has diagnosed as “brainwashed” without ever meeting the children will tell us how successful that practice has been.
Which state office provides oversight in those cases and where’s that data?
Behavior patterns are telling about a person. I am sure a behavioral analyst would disagree. A serial killer is profiled before they are actually caught. The analysis usually leads to the capture of a dangerous predator. Protecting people from the further harm to humanity. Conducted by well trained people. I don’t believe that the court appointed psychologist are among this group of well trained people unfortunately.
The biggest lies ever told are by exes or the new romantic interest of the ex.
Known by who?
I have screws loose because of my picture? Im sure your mirror breaks when you look in it. Thanks for taking the time to insult me and my lawsuit, see you in court with the rest of your buddies 🥰🥰🥰
This lawsuit is going to get thrown out faster than a used tissue.
Because Connecticut is a paid off globalist state, a State in which the Communist party, aka the Communist Party of Connecticut or on the ballot as, the Working Families party. Their main objective destruction of the family , government raises the child. Kinda that human trafficking vibe thing going. Most, not all,, in the Judicial system are beholden to this club of globalist scum. When anyone fights back, the first line of attack is character assassination in the media. So the games begin, kinda easy to spot once you learn to ferret out these paid off schills
A Nazi state, too.
“Prescott Bush, a 6ft 4in charmer with a rich singing voice, was the founder of the Bush political dynasty and was once considered a potential presidential candidate himself.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar
This is every North East state.
The information will still go public. Who knows what this will uncover?
You are a beautiful woman, but in that picture, your expression is like the cat that ate the canary. Like you think you are getting away with something and pulling the wool over peoples’ eyes. Duper’s delight.
Why have the government officials given themselves a big fat raise along with the judges 😮.
Judges are politically appointed and have no psychology medical background. They don’t understand family dynamics.
Let’s let everyone know how the access and visitation grant works. Through contacts with tribes, courts, non profit organizations. ( Joanie are you using your PSA company) parental education ( mandatory parenting classes are paid for for the non custodial parents) . Used for parenting plans ( $$$$ gals and psychologist $$$). Development of visiting. Enforcement do not increase domestic violence for program participants. Mediation services paid for for non custodial parents. Saving the angry and outraged fathers ordered to pay child support and or alimony. This is why women are awarded custody in the beginning. Then the custody flip occurs. A win for the state of Connecticut and the family court system. The recruitment and demonstrational need for federal funding in Connecticut. The money train a rolling. Connecticut shared parenting ” taking control of your divorce” . Is this the racket? Why isn’t Connecticut protective moms a non profit alerting women to access and visitation grants? Custodial moms are eligible.
Using parental alienation to control the your family court cases. Placing people often women in unfavorable positions financially during divorce proceeding. Forcing unsafe and unfair agreements in mediation because the Mom doesn’t have financial resources for attorneys fees. Using unfair financial assistance to have ” control over the other persons ability in family court” . Using funding to subdue the other party. Most often the mother.
Ct protective moms is a defendant and theyre money laundering as well
Advertising services to enable curruption. With that many mothers involved in cases why has the organization not been able to get the assistance of authorities? It has benefited the mothers in Connecticut to gain some traction to public awareness. It’s amazing that this organization has not been able to get the attention of the government of the state. The state of Connecticut has not only failed to recognize the equal rights of mothers/ women in family law. It’s appears to failure in protecting women safety and well-being. Sexual assault victims punished and children are not protected. Thousands of pedipiies. DCF Warehouseing children in deplorable places. The state has ignored Jennifer’s law and weaponized it against the women. The board would be well served to find a mental health professional and women’s rights attorney. Connecticut is bias state. Jumping on the color of skin, sexual orientation because of the funding. They are financially driven and have chosen to discredit victims to save on the incarceration costs. Connecticut protective moms is fighting an uphill battle. The question is what will the federal funding be used for. Promoting legislation in a perverse state with a history of curruption in all likelihood is a loosing battle. As we have seen in the Ambrose v Riordan case. Punished for protection. The family court legal system is built on sexist gender bias legislation attached to fatherhood funding. Is Betsy contacting the federal government to report the the danger and and violations of the rights of the mothers in the state? What appears to be the misuse of government funding to perpetuate profit to the family law industry and endangering children and women in Connecticut. It’s hard to fight billions of dollars that is running the state. The political leaders who appear to be willing to sacrifice the people in the state for benefits, retirement, trips to Newport and the power to punish those who dare come forward to report the truth about what is really happening in the state of Connecticut.
Why haven’t filled themselves?
Please tell me how to join her to support!

Through education and advocacy we empower survivors and eliminate stigma. Punished for reporting in family court. Stigma. Maternal gatekeeping, malicious mommy syndrome, parental alienatior, hysterical, delusional, discruntaled, lair, gold digger. A burden to the tax payers.
It’s truth that women’s rights are human rights. Honoring that reality here in Connecticut is not only the right thing to do, it’s the smart thing to do. that’s why I am proud to launch the 1st ever counsil on Women and girls in our state to deliver on equality and opportunity. With this council we can ensure women and girls have every opportunity to determine their future and good living for themselves and their families. Governor Lamont. The family court system appears to be counter productive to this mission. Equal rights are human r and constitutional rights. Where is the counsil assistance in the family court greatly effecting hundreds of women in the state of Connecticut?
Although, Theodora looks like Megan Markell, she’s actually way hotter and obviously smarter
Haha thanks ill make sure to update my headshot and take some professional photos for the next article since the trolls decided to hop on here and insult my appearance, maybe they could loan me some of the 780mi the feds gave them last year for their salaries so i can hire a photographer
Call attorney general’s office. They have a photographer on staff . Word on the street is that tax payers are paying for it.
Seeing as she has also included the attorney general I think she may have burned that bridge.
The Attorney general should have looked into family court years back. Could he be an accessory to the operation? Family court is a hot 🔥 topic and concern. An abrupt hault in 2014. No accountability or oversight. Just immunity
Um no.
Hammer them Ms. Antar:
They are pure evil,
Bless you.
What happens in the dark always comes to light 🙏
Can more people join?
If more attorneys can help, maybe more parents can join? Fine tuning Theodora’s action would help — in addition to a collective effort to define and address the many common grievances.
Seasoned attorneys properly litigating each common grievance for several victims in every court available is possible. How about a class action suit and/or several grand juries? Something’s gotta give. Everyone sees the blatant corruption and horrible harm done to so many.
Need an attorney for class action. All we need is one. Any other parents can join. Email theodora.antar@uconn.edu

Wow, this is awesome news.
Maybe the FBI will hire her and investigate this case as well! This kid has balls and should be a agent… To deal with an idiot ex and have a judge grant her kid over to a family that has a son that is sexually abusing her daughter and the father is totally unfit and she still finds the time to go to law school and write up a massive complaint. Take the time to read in detail the information in the complaint! Her ex should have never have been given custody and how can she be deemed unfit if she is raising an older daughter as well? I hope she wins and she gets her daughter back and the state pays her back for all the lost time they caused between her and her daughter. I can’t imagine the pain she is going through… Theodora kick butt you will have your time in court fight to win! L&L El Paso, Texas
Thank you. If the FBI wants to hire me they have my number 🤭 anyone who wants to reach out contact theodora.antar@uconn.edu
Having experienced the corrupt CT Family Court system in person, no children involved, this is great news! Like the renowned Alan Dershowitz said in an interview he rather have a six-person jury than have one judge decide his case. Unfortunately, this is not the case in Family Court. You are married for 20 years and in a short review, 1–3-day hearing, one person decides your fate. It’s how much caca one lawyer can throw out, whether partially true, true or not, should have little impact on 2 people who do not want to be married any longer. Part facts and part theatre all subject to the judge’s innocence of the “real world”. Fortunately, we do have some great judges and attorneys but with all the on-going self-absorption they are cast aside. The reign of the CT Family Court monarchy curtain is ripping apart! We are a point in time when the people are revolting! Look at the past several years since covid came into our existence. We the people, whatever side you are on have been protesting, have been pushing back. This is our French Revolution! Antar is courageous and I look forward to the scales of justice being returned to balance. We depend on the Judicial system to be fair and balanced. I look forward to this lawsuit to be taken seriously and given a fair chance.
No Peter,
There are no good attorneys in Connecticut, not in family law.
Heya, I am not peter. But it’s probably 99% to 1%. I agree! I could not be a family lawyer if I was a lawyer as I could not stand by and see what goes on! I guess you have to be a unique individual! unique = $$$!
Thats all they care about! I pray for Theodora. Grossman is an illegitimate judge in my eyes! She is just an awful person! I do not understand how and why anyone, including relatives, would be comfortable around her for the atrocious decisions to destruct families and children’s lives! Those around her, especially family with a conscious, need to call her out and wake her up! If you are related to her sit down and have a conversation for the sake of families in CT! Because yours can be next to be destroyed in Family Court!
Thank you for writing that.

NewsNation was one of the only larger outlets — besides the New York Post — to cover the Kassenoff case. They didn’t thoroughly investigate or report the corruption in that case, so it looks like just another newly-formed media monopoly offering controlled opposition to the status quo.
“… Nexstar Media Group was founded as Nexstar Broadcasting Group on June 17, 1996 … NewsNation is an American subscription television network owned by the Nexstar Media Group, and is the company’s only wholly-owned, national cable-originated television channel … On September 1, 2020, WGN America launched a three-hour-long prime time newscast, NewsNation, which began development in October 2019, when Nexstar management commissioned research from television subscribers that determined a share of survey participants were dissatisfied with opinion-based programming on cable news channels such as CNN … “

AH! Of course! Makes a lot of sense now! Rush Limbaugh use to say follow the $$$! Thank you for sharing!
This keeps showing me the state is more corrupt than I knew!
So, her brother-in-law is the Director as now know that no one working directly for nxstr right now or any other news person will ever uncover the dirt on Jane that wants to work in CT news! Makes total sense. I wonder if Jane or her husband profited from nxstr stock???

Does anyone know what happened to Stephen Grant?
“… Established 1975, the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC) is now a Wisconsin based international trade organization for family court industry professionals founded by judges, court administrators, and the family court professionals who may appear before them. Documents obtained from the State and the AFCC show that the AFCC has been a vendor for the Connecticut Judicial Branch for over 30 years, and at one point even had a corporate office within the Hartford Superior Court. The articles of incorporation list Judicial Branch Manager Anthony Salius as a founding director. In addition to Salius, the list of former AFCC presidents also includes Judicial Branch managers Robert Tompkins and ➡️ Stephen Grant ⬅️. AFCC newsletters also show that for over a decade, Court support services managers Debra Kulak and Marilous Giovannucci have teamed up with AFCC affiliated Judicial Branch vendors like Dr. Phil Stahl and Dr. Marsha Kline Pruitt to assist with AFCC fundraising and policy initiatives .
According to William Silk, a staff attorney for the Connecticut Secretary of State’s office explained that in most cases, the Connecticut Nonstock Corporations Act requires all nonprofit businesses to file registration documents with his office, the IRS, and the Attorney General’s Office before conducting business in the state. Documents obtained from Silk’s office show that Jessica Pearson, Ann Milne, and Frank Orlando (a Florida judge) first registered the AFCC with the Connecticut Secretary of State in 1982 while Pearson was under contract to set up the court’s mediation services.
However, the AFCC has not been registered to do business in Connecticut because in 1985, its application was withdrawn by then AFCC president and Judicial Branch manager Anthony Salius. The IRS’s website does not list the Connecticut AFCC as an approved charity.
But Judicial Branch employees may also be facing bigger problems from the CJE, who recently decided that it would also be a violation of canon for family court judges to join the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers , an organization similar to AFCC. Documents obtained from the State of Illinois and both these organizations show the AAML and AFCC are cross affiliated through founding officials and current members. The AFCC is also cross-affiliated with pedophile friendly militant fathers rights groups, such as the Children’s Rights Council . According to their websites and newsletters, these organizations promote and operate various policy driven projects, such as crafting legislation and industry guidelines, lobbying, and training court industry officials. According to documents obtained from the IRS, various Secretary of State’s offices, and a 2002 report released by the California Chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW), the AFCC has a checkered past with authorities, and their right to do business in California, Florida, and Kansas has been revoked (and sometimes reinstates) at various times.
AFCC newsletters state that a Judicial Branch vendor, Pearson and the AFCC set up several demonstration projects family courts around the country, including Connecticut, which were funded by the state, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the U.S. Department of Justice. But Pearson was also a co-founder of another company called the Center for Policy Research, which Pearson admits writes reviews of these same projects for the funding federal agencies.
Records obtained from the Judicial Branch show that the corporation continued to transact routine business in the State and serve as an often relied upon Judicial Branch vendor well after Salius withdrew their application in 1984. Vendor reports show that between 2007 and 2010, the Judicial Branch paid the AFCC over $70,000 for services provided to the family court by Dr. Klein Pruett, her assistants, and the Charter Oak Group.
Various correspondence with the Connecticut Secretary of State’s offices confirmed they are aware that the AFCC remains unregistered and have begun to formally inquire as to whether the AFCC’s operations in Connecticut are in compliance with state laws. While Silk’s office says that they have no authority to prosecute the AFCC criminally, they are able to issue fines against unregistered foreign corporations illegally conducting business in the state. …”

VARIATIONS IN COURT RULINGS ON CHILD SUPPORT AND CUSTODY
By: Susan Price-Livingston, Associate Attorney
You asked what activities have been undertaken in Connecticut in the past five years to study or address variations among family court judges’ child support and custody decisions.
We contacted Stephen Ment, Judicial Department liaison, who in turn spoke with the Family Division’s chief administrative judge Herbert Gruendel and the deputy director of Family Services Stephen R. Grant. None knows of any specific activities on this topic. The governor has created a Commission on Custody, Divorce, and Children …”
Don’t try to understand corruption in government. Halloween is coming in a few weeks, then Thanksgiving. Winter holidays are next and before you know it, The Super Bowl will be right round the corner. All the stores in America have inexpensive products Made in China so no need to worry about inflation.
We need to support Antar 100%. She js a fearless, brave woman.
The George Soros run CT Family Court system will eventually be exposed. They will all be exposed.
Child Trafficking is a multi billion dollar a year business. Whether through immigration, migration, family court, etc. it is currently not illegal in all cases.
Planned Parenthood facilitates, funds and directly enabled child sex trafficking. Same with CT Family Court system.
In a time when child trafficking is ignored by mainstream news outlets, we need alternative journalists to step up to the plate.
The system is now coming after Investigative Journalists. Aiden Kearney was arrested last week. Who is next?
The Richards Luthmanns, Frank Parlatos, Aiden Kearneys, etc. need us to continually support their efforts to expose corruption.
Ms. Antar, do not give up. I believe you will find support among the Frank Report community. I certainly support you!
Thank you 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Yeah more holidays where I wont be able to see my child since grossman decided it was in her best interest to never see or speak to me again
Believe it or not, long ago those modern “holidays” were designed to eventually do exactly that to millions, then billions around this world.

“REMEMBERING ‘KIDS FOR CASH:’ NEVER AGAIN? LET’S BE SURE
Remarks of the Hon. John M. Cleland, S.J.
James E. Anderson Conference on Juvenile Justice
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
November 7, 2018
Kids for Cash. It has been called the biggest judicial corruption scandal in Pennsylvania history, or even in American legal history. …
… In February 2009, acting on a petition filed by the Juvenile Law Center, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court appointed Judge Arthur Grim as a special master to review Ciavarella’s juvenile adjudications between 2003 and May 2008.
The Court subsequently accepted Judge Grim’s recommendation and vacated every juvenile adjudication in Luzerne County entered during that 5 1⁄2 year period, expunging the record of 2,401 juveniles. Judge Grim was also assigned to oversee victim claims that were paid from a fund created by the Legislature as a result of an Interbranch Commission recommendation. …”
Just like in NY with Keith raniere, the ct ones are also corrupt. They turn a blind eye. Fbi cuts deals with ppl. Watch any TV show. Even though tv is fiction, it’s still based upon something true.

Does anyone happen to know if the Karen Bowers at St. Mary’s Hospital in Waterbury, CT is personally or professionally involved with anyone from the Connecticut Resource Group, LLC?
She will … go down the dismissed with prejudice toilet- like a bunch of other Moms- sorry for the sad trombone.
Also she needs to include AFCC to make it a RICO. Sex discriminating is much easier than a RICO.
Sadly, you are correct. This will be assigned ‘randomly’ to Shea or Covello or another who routinely protect the Branch against any Complaints.
They will cite Sovereign immunity, Judicial immunity, Quasi-Judicial immunity, Absolute immunity, and other doctrines.
They may pretend there is ‘fairness’ by leaving one or two defendants and/or claims standing, but then three or four years from now, it will be dismissed fully on Summary Judgement grounds. All the while, AAG Robert Deichert and others will torment this poor woman with baseless motions.
Thanks for your comments. You seem to know a lot about how that system works.
When its all scripted ya of course
Too bad they cant this time
I disagree. Keep your negativity to yourself. Amended complaint will be here before you know it.
“… Does all this mean that a party who believes her federal rights are being violated in connection with an ongoing state court proceeding has no recourse at all to a federal court to vindicate her rights? Not necessarily so. … A party may file a separate federal court action rather than removing the state court action itself to federal court. Indeed, Antar has filed such a separate action against Lodice and other defendants. See Antar v. Lodice, 3:23-cv-1021-JAM (D. Conn. 2023).
Therefore, the fact that I am remanding these four actions to state court does not mean that Antar is without means to seek relief in federal court.
Because these actions are being remanded for lack of federal jurisdiction, I have no cause to address procedural defects with respect to the filing of the notices of removal. For example, the federal removal statute allows only a defendant—not a plaintiff—to file a notice of removal. See 28 U.S.C. § 1441(a); Hamilton v. Aetna Life & Cas. Co., 5 F.3d 642, 643 (2d Cir. 1993) (“[n]o section [of the removal statute] provides for removal by a plaintiff”).
CONCLUSION
The Court REMANDS this action back to the Connecticut Appellate Court. Because the Court plainly lacks federal jurisdiction over this case …”

Is the judge suggesting the state Appellate Court AND the Federal Court can/should/would consider the redress of grievances in those four actions pertaining to her custody dispute?

“… EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 22
WHEREAS, two out of every five American children experience the consequences of divorce and
over 11,000 👈 marriages in Connecticut each year end in divorce; and
WHEREAS, half of all divorces in Connecticut involve children and custody issues; and
WHEREAS, of the nearly 9,000 children 👈 in Connecticut that are affected annually by divorce, 69% are under ten years of age; and
WHEREAS, the process of divorce and parental conflict may last for many months, if not years, frequently giving inadequate consideration 👈 to the best interests of the children; and
WHEREAS, parental conflict and divorce may have detrimental long-term effects on the children that can permanently shape children’s attitudes, lifestyles, and mental health; and
WHEREAS, an effective strategy for addressing the issues of divorce and custody and their effect on children requires a comprehensive approach including research 👈 , education and communication;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, John G. Rowland, Governor of the State of Connecticut, acting by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and by the statutes of this state, so hereby ORDER and DIRECT:
1. That there be created a Commission on Custody, Divorce, and Children (hereinafter Commission) to study the issues of divorce, custody and children in Connecticut and make recommendations on how the State can improve the system. …”
Screw the commissions! How many commissions in the state of Connecticut are there but guess probably a 100… Many shareholders are part of these committees let’s guess 0. But yet we’re supposed to believe that these people are working in the best interest of the shareholders the citizens correct now I say that Every commission in the state of Connecticut needs to have at least 2 Is tough for different citizen shareholders. You cannot claim also like William Tong does, To only represent the state’s interest and the state agency’s best interest When it is clear as day under the AOG, That all attorney generals represent the best interest of the citizens especially if their rights are being violated.
William Tong however however has been telling every citizen especially mothers that send it in their complaints to him that he doesn’t represent citizens he only represents the state’s best interests in state agencies.
He has violated his own ethics and his own policies where he is supposed to take our complaints and investigate them..
And don’t forget that he lost what millions of dollars that he can’t say where it won’t went to but judges for some reason got a lot of money in their retirement funds lots of multiple payments to certain judges in 2022…. Not saying that’s where the money went but who the hell knows.
A year from now they’ll form another commission. The year after that, another task force.
Then … nothing will change and it might get worse. Look what happened to “Jennifers Law”.
Nj has a commission about improving parenting coordination. Btw parenting coordinators are all lawyers.
Guess who’s on the panel to make recommendations? Judges and lawyers. Hence why it’s self serving and keeps the gravy train running. It’s like asking the fox how to manage the hen house.
Add the commission on women children and seniors. Also add the commission on women and girls.
Karen Jarmoc. Former head of the Ccadv. Co chair with Joseph Ditunno. Joseph Ditunno head of family services judicial branch. Involved in violent offender program. Jarmoc is now on the commission of women children and seniors. Promoting bias language in legislation for fatherhood funding. Ignoring the family court crisis and the right for children to live free from harm and abuse.
Theodora Antar
Thank you for taking on widespread corruption that has taken childhoods and lives of so many.
We all need to come out of hiding and name names- to get these criminals out of their positions of power.
I pray that this RICO case is proven and the Connecticut Family Court system is exposed as the criminal operation it has been for so long. There is no other explanation as to why Chris Ambrose, obviously mentally unstable in my opinion, and Geoff Herzog, also apparently mentally disturbed, have children given to them. I believe one of your reports mention Herzog paying $1M+ into the system. There are rumors that he has also stated he has immunity. I guess we shall see. I pray these people, Judges, GALs, Custody Evaluators and DCF contributors included, spend the rest of their lives in prison.
The Herzog case needs to be updated. Geoff was online he admitted in ways that suggest dangerous ideations that could reflect badly on his teen daughter. This is one of the most outrageous cases of cash for kids.
From your lips to Gods ears!!
“… Plaintiff has only seen her minor four year old child for less than 2 days in 6 months, despite trying to file multiple motions for contempt, modification, emergency ex parte custody, motion to reargue. …”
1. How many Connecticut family court judges place sexual abuse victims with the perpetrators?
2. How many Connecticut family court judges isolate the victims away from the protective parents?
3. In the past 40 years, how many times have Connecticut family court judges placed sexual abuse victims with the perpetrators while isolating the victims away from protective parents?
Experts know: Placing victims with the perpetrators/enablers of the abuse usually silences sexually abused children who are afraid of the identified perpetrators/enablers.
Where is the data on those cases collected and stored? Have there never been such cases in Connecticut? Has that never happened before? If it has happened, where are those records?
If there’s no such data collected and stored in Connecticut, that speaks volumes about the blatant racketeering in that state’s “family courts” for the past 40 years.
I wish her luck. Filing pro se in federal court is not for the timid.
I hope she realizes that per Rule 5, she has to serve that complaint and subsequent papers on each and every defendant.
If she’s in UCONN law school, which professors and advisors would help and/or try to destroy her case?
UCONN is listed as a Defendant. How many at UCONN have been complicit in the family court corruption over the course of the past 40 years?
If someone there were to want to steer her in the wrong direction, they probably could and might try.
Uconn. The flagship university has been awarded Approximately 250 million to possibly aid in the men’s rights agenda in Connecticut. Uconn is home of the fatherhood initiative health and human services. Diana Ditunno beach ⛱️ lover. Joseph Ditunno wife. There is a definite possibility that the law department may be inclined to sabotage the case.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA
MOTION TO REQUEST EXTENSION OF DEADLINE
TO FILE RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO
DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
1. Plaintiff Keith Raniere, through his undersigned counsel, hereby moves to request the
Court for an order granting a reasonable extension of the deadline to submit a Response in
Opposition to Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment related to the above-captioned case,
which is currently due on October 16, 2023, to November 16, 2023 or any date thereafter that the
Court deems acceptable.
2. Mr. Raniere’s incarceration poses logistical challenges to enable him to easily participate
with our office in the drafting of his response. To that end, although we have attempted to
contact Mr. Raniere to discuss a draft of our Response, we have found it very difficult to reach
and communicate with our client, and, as such, we have not yet had an opportunity to discuss its
Case 4:22-cv-00561-RCC Document 55 Filed 10/13/23 Page 1 of 2
contents in its entirety with him. We feel it is imperative to do so before filing. As such, we are
requesting an additional adjournment to file our Response.
3. This extension is sought to afford additional time for the undersigned counsel to engage
in further consultation with Plaintiff regarding the filing of his Response. Although this is the
third request by the undersigned counsel on behalf of Plaintiff for an extension to file a Response
in Opposition to Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment, we feel it necessary considering
his current circumstances and the difficulties they pose to facilitating attorney-client
communication. Currently, Mr. Raniere has been on lockdown for over a week and we have not
been able to communicate with him at all. Once the lockdown is lifted, we will be able to
communicate with him. Therefore, the undersigned counsel respectfully requests the Court for a
reasonable extension to file the Response.
4. Based on the foregoing, Plaintiff respectfully requests the date to file his Response in
Opposition to Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment be extended to November 16, 2023,
or any date thereafter that the Court deems convenient.
Date: October 13, 2023
