Feb 06, 2024 Le Jacqueline Duong Judge of the Superior Court February 9, 16, 23, March 1, 2024 In The Matter of the Adoption Petition of UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS Case No. 23AD025944 CITATION TO ALLEGED FATHER FROM: THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO: SANTOS MANCILLAS, and his attorney of record, if any By order of this Court you are hereby cited to appear before the Hon. Jackie Arroyo, judge presiding in Dept. 1 of the Court located at 191 N. First Street, San Jose CA 95113, on March 27, 2024 at 11:00 a.m., then and there to show cause, if you have any, why UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS, should not be declared free from your parental control and custody, for the purpose of freeing UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS for placement for adoption. The following information concerns rights and procedures that relate to this proceeding to declare minor free from your parental control and custody as set forth in Family Code § 7860, et seq.: 1.

At the beginning of the proceeding, the Court will consider whether or not the interest of the minor requires appointment of counsel.

If the Court finds that the interests of the minor do require such protection, the Court will appoint counsel to represent

her, whether or not she is able to afford counsel.

The minor will not be present in Court unless she requests or the Court so orders.

2.

If a parent of the minor appears without counsel and is unable to afford counsel, the Court must appoint counsel for the parent, unless the parent knowingly and intelligently waives the right to be represented by counsel. The Court will not appoint the same attorney to represent both the minor and his parent.

3.

The Court may appoint either the Public Defender or private counsel. If private counsel is appointed, he/she will receive a reasonable sum for compensation and expenses, the amount of which will be determined by the Court.

That amount must be paid by the real parties in interest, but not by the minor, is proportioned as the Court believes to be just. If, however, the Court finds that any of the real parties in interest cannot afford counsel, the amount will be paid by the county.

4.

The Court may continue the proceeding for not more than Thirty (30) days as necessary to appoint counsel and become acquainted with the case.

FEB 09, 2024 - FEB 15, 2024 of the minor on September 28, 2022 (see case no. 22PR193048).

Petitioner, GLORIA A. ESCOBEDO is the second cousin of Leticia Marie Chavez Salazar, who is the biological mother of the minor.

Mother’s parental rights were terminated by order of the court on August 23, 2023. At the commencement of this matter, it was unknown to Petitioners who any alleged biological fathers of the child may be.

2.

The alleged natural father’s identity is unknown; b.

The whereabouts of the alleged natural father are unknown and cannot be ascertained; c.

Notice to the alleged father was dispensed; and The parental rights of the alleged father if any he may have had and any other possible father were terminated.

S u b s e quently, Petitioners were alerted by the Adoptions Specialist at California Department of Social Services that the birth mother had named an alleged father in the minor’s medical records. According to the records: a.

Biological mother stated the father of baby (“FOB”) was not involved. b.

She stated FOB’s name was Santos Mancillas, and that she did not know his age. c.

A f t e r biological mother was discharged, she left the hospital with Mr. Mancillas. d.

FOB stated “their encampment was cleaned out and he [was] looking for shelter.”

4.

The Adoptions Specialist further provided Petitioners with a list of six (6) potential addresses for Mr. Mancillas.

5.

The minor child was abandoned

by Mr. Mancillas in the hospital after the minor was born. At all times since, the minor has been in the custody and control of Petitioners. To Petitioners’ knowledge, Mr. Mancillas has never met the minor child. Mr. Mancillas left the minor child at the hospital on September 9, 2022 around 9 a.m. without any provision for the child’s support nor communication, with

the intent to abandon the child.

6.

The Petitioners request the following be the orders of the Court: a.

Te r m i n a t e the parental rights of SANTOS MANCILLAS and declare that the minor child UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS is free from the custody and control of SANTOS MANCILLAS.

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF MOTHER’S MOTION FOR SANCTIONS DATE: February 26, 2024 TIME: 9:00AM APJ: DEPT.: 64 Petitioner, Dane Lanier (“Mother”) is represented by Kathryn Schlepphorst.

Respondent, Brian Lanier (“Father”), is represented by Catherine Bechtel. The Parties were married on August 17, 1991, and were separated on September 19, 2015; for a marriage of a total of twenty-four (24) years.

There are two children from the marriage: Nathan Lanier (DOB: 07/27/ 2004; Age: 19) and Sam Lanier (DOB: 07/02/2008; Age: 15).

I. STATEMENT OF FACTS In August 2019, Mother filed a Request for Order (“RFO”) to change child support and enforce an existing 2015 Illinois Judgment, where Father was required to make payments of $1,000 per month for the children’s college education.

Father never made any payments until a new stipulation was agreed upon approximately five (5) years later. A Stipulation and Order Re Child Support was filed on January 27, 2020, (“January 2020 Order”) which included

a $23,500 payment from Father into the children’s college fund

by February 27, 2020.

Father continued to disregard the court orders and neglected to make required payments. As a result, enforcement of court orders was a priority for Mother during the settlement of Mother’s 2019 RFO. The parties signed and executed a Stipulation and Order Regarding Legal Custody, Child Support, Health Insurance, Tuition, Alaska Accounts, Reimbursements, and Attorney’s Fees, filed on July 15, 2020 (“July 2020 Order”). The July 2020 Order incorporated Mother’s late payment concerns with the inclusion of Paragraph 3(d), “the party that owes Smith Ostler must pay it directly to the other party by February 15 of each year. If the true up is not paid by February 15, interest shall accrue in the amount of 10% of the total amount owed, each day the payment is late.” This specific clause was included in several drafts of the July 2020 order prior to signature. In order to calculate the Smith Ostler payment, Paragraph 3(a) of the July 2020 Order instructed, “the parties shall exchange their year-to-date paystubs and bonus/stock documentation by June 30th and December 31st each year.”

Following the July 2020 Order, Father paid his first Smith Ostler on time in February 2021.

However, Father quickly reverted to his old ways and was late in making base child support payments in August 2021, September 2021 and January 2022, without any repercussions. The July 2020 Order does not contain interest on late base child support payments. Father was also late in making the February 2022 Smith Ostler payment, which adds daily interest.

Father was sixteen days late in making the Smith Ostler child support payment. As a result, Father paid $24,268 in interest. Father did not dispute the interest amount. On March 23, 2022, for the first time since Paragraph 3(d) was drafted in June 2020, Father’s counsel alleged the interest amount was an “obvious error” and wanted to stipulate an amendment.

Mother was clearly not in agreement with modifying the agreement, especially given the circumstances that Father was again late in making child support payments.

On July 19, 2022, Mother’s counsel

CLASSIFIEDS / LEGALS requested Father’s financial documents to calculate Smith Ostler per Paragraph 3(a) of the 2020 Order. Mother granted an extension until July 30, 2022, to receive documents.

On December 1, 2022, Father’s counsel assured that Father would provide his end of year W-2s. The December 31, 2022, deadline passed, and Father still did not provide any financial documents.

The February 15, 2023, deadline also passed, and Father still did not provide any financial documents nor make a Smith Ostler payment.

On June 6, 2023, Mother filed a motion for Contempt of Court because Father did not provide his paystubs and bonus/stock documentation that was due on June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022. Father also did not make a Smith Ostler payment by February 15, 2023. Father refused to authorize his attorney to accept service. As a result, Mother had to reschedule the hearing multiple times because she was unable to locate Father. Mother had to file several reissuances of the Contempt motion, on June 13, 2023, June 23, 2023, July 28, 2023, and September 11, 2023.

On August 3, 2023, Father finally provided Mother with his paystubs and W2s for year 2022 and made the principal payment for Smith Ostler of $108,476.

However, Father did not make any interest payments despite paying Smith Ostler 168 days late.

Due to Father’s failure to pay child support on time, he accrued interest in the amount of $1,822,464.00 (10% of $108,476 x 168 days late). Father continued to refuse to accept service. Mother finally filed a request for the Court to issue an order permitting service by publication. Once Mother received the Order for Service by Publication filed on September 18, 2023, she was able to run the contempt motion post through El Observador. The San Jose newspaper ran the pleading post for four (4) consecutive weeks and ended on October 13, 2023. The Affidavit for the publication was filed on October 16, 2023. Once service was complete, the hearing on the initial Contempt charge was finally heard on November 6, 2023.

Father was present at the November 6, 2023, hearing with his

19

attorneys, Maya Ortega and Ray Baluyot, and requested dismissal of the contempt charge.

The initial contempt charge was dismissed without prejudice on technical grounds.

Father’s attorney stated on the record that he would not accept service when the contempt charge is refiled. Father also refused to provide an address for service. // // II. ARGUMENT A. FATHER SHOULD BE SANCTIONED $1,000 PER DAY IN ADDITION TO ATTORNEY’S FEES AND COSTS FOR CONTINUALLY FLOUTING THE COURT’S ORDERS AND NOT PAYING CHILD SUPPORT ON TIME. California Family Code § 271 gives the Court the authority to impose an award of attorney’s fees and costs as sanctions where the conduct of a party or attorney “furthers or frustrates the policy of the law to promote settlement of litigation and, where possible, to reduce the cost of litigation by encouraging cooperation between the parties and attorneys.” Cal. Fam. Code § 271. The court has the discretion to impose sanctions, and they “are justified when a party has unreasonably increased the cost of litigation.” In re Marriage of Corona, (2009) 172 Cal.App.4th 1205, 1227. Further an award “under section 271 need not ‘be limited to the cost to the other side resulting from the bad conduct.’” In re Marriage of Falcone & Fyke (2012) 203 Cal. App. 4th 964, 990. A party requesting sanctions under section 271 is not required to show any financial need for the award or any actual injury. Id. The only stricture is that the sanction award must not impose an unreasonable financial burden on the party being sanctioned.

For example, in In re Marriage of Rangell, 95 Cal. App. 5th 1206, 313 Cal. Rptr. 3d 851 (2023), reh'g denied (Oct. 16, 2023), the court affirmed sanctions in the amount of $1,000 per day for not paying Court ordered attorney’s fees. The sanctioned party in the case, Deric, was initially ordered to pay attorney’s fees on July 31, 2018, and then ordered again on April 29, 2019 when he failed to pay. Id. at 855. Deric continued not to pay and the opposing party, Tracey, filed a request for sanctions in the amount of $1,000 per day on January 12, 2021.

Id. at 858. On March

20

CLASSIFIEDS / LEGALS

21, 2021, the court ordered “sanctions for noncompliance” in the amount of $48,000 for 48 days of noncompliance. Id. at 860. The court explained “[that] Deric refused to obey the court’s orders for 48 days [not to mention, the preceding two years) resulting in $48,000 in sanctions, is no fault of anyone but Deric. … The lesson here to Deric is plain: he cannot repeatedly flout the court's orders for years and expect to get away with it, when his conduct delayed Tracey's enjoyment of her share of community property and caused her to incur additional attorney fees and costs in enforcing the court's orders...‘Somewhere along the line, litigation must cease.’ ‘[Husband] has yet to absorb this message,’ warranting sanctions. ‘When making the award, the family court shall consider [Husband's] dilatory tactics ... and the policy of imposing sanctions in an amount sufficient to deter future similar conduct.’” Id. at 864 Here, Father willfully violated the 2015 Illinois Order, January 2020 Order, and July 2020 Order causing Mother to incur significant attorney fees and costs in enforcing the court’s order. Father’s actions here are just as egregious if not worse than Deric in the Rangell case. Father failed to make the required payments under the 2015 Illinois Order for over four years, forcing Mother to file a reissuance of that order in January 2020.

Father continued to flout the court’s orders, forcing Mother to seek another court order in July 2020. Following the July 2020 Order, Father was late on several child support payments, in August 2021, September 2021 and January 2022, without any repercussions. Father was also late in making the February 2022 Smith Ostler payment and had to $24,268 in interest. Father was late again in February 2023 for 168 days. Father still has not, to date, paid the outstanding interest for being 168 days late and is still in violation of the July 2020 Order.

Father also failed to exchange financial documents on time, violating the July 2020 Order, and causing Mother to file a Motion for Contempt, in addition to this request for Sanctions.

Furthermore, Father has been evading service by refusing to provide an address and prohibiting his attorney

from accepting service.

As a result, Mother had to file several reissuances of the Contempt motion, originally filed on June 6, 2023, to June 13, 2023, June 23, 2023, July 28, 2023, and September 11, 2023.

Mother also had to file a request for Order for Service by Publication, which was granted.

On the date of the initial Contempt hearing, Father was present with two attorneys. The motion for contempt was dismissed without prejudice on technicality. At the hearing, Father’s attorney stated on the record that he would not accept service when the contempt motion is refiled and would not provide an address to serve Father.

Father and his attorneys are clearly frustrating the policy of the law to promote settlement of litigation and should be sanctioned for their conduct. Father should be sanctioned in “an amount sufficient to deter future similar conduct” since he has repeatedly flouted the courts’ orders since 2015. There is low likelihood that Father will abide by future court orders without being sanctioned.

As a result of Father’s failure to abide by the July 2020 Order, Mother has incurred significant attorney’s fees in the amount of $20,882.99 as of October 31, 2023, which does not include future court appearances and publication costs—if Father continues to evade service.

III. CONCLUSION Based on the foregoing, Mother respectfully requests the Court to order payment of interest in the amount of $1,822,464.00 (10% of $108,476 x 168 days late) and sanctions in the amount of $1,000 per day plus attorney’s fees and costs.

Date: 12/13/23 /s/ Dana Lanier Matter of Lanier Case No.: 19FL002379 ATTACHMENT 8(d) – ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND AFFIDAVIT FOR CONTEMPT 1.

I, DANA LANIER (“Mother”), declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

2.

I respectfully request the court: a.

To find Brian Lanier, (“Father”) guilty of four counts of contempt: i.

Failure to exchange year-to-date paystubs and bonus/ stock documentation

by June 30, 2022; ii.

Failure to exchange year-to-date paystubs and bonus/ stock documentation

by December 31, 2022; iii.

Failure to pay Smith Ostler child support by February 15, 2023; and iv.

Failure to pay 168 days of late fees in the amount of $1,822,464.00. b.

To award attorney's fees to Mother for the costs of pursuing the Contempt Order to Show Cause.

3.

In November 2015, a Judgment (“2015 Judgment”) was entered in the state of Illinois, finalizing our dissolution with a Marital Settlement Agreement.

The 2015 Judgment included a clause ordering Father to pay $1,000 per month for the children’s college education. Father did not make a single payment between 2015 and 2019, so I hired Kathryn Schlepphorst, Esq. to file a request for order (“RFO”) to enforce the 2015 Judgment in August 2019.

4.

A Stipulation and Order Re Child Support was filed on January 27, 2020, which included a $23,500 payment from Father into the children’s college fund by February 27, 2020.

Father continued to disregard the court orders and

neglected to make required payments.

Because of Father’s history of non-payment and late payment, it was important to me that timely payments would be addressed in future settlements.

5.

After significant negotiation, Father and I signed and executed a Stipulation and Order Regarding Legal Custody, Child Support, Health Insurance, Tuition, Alaska Accounts, Reimbursements, and Attorney’s Fees, filed on July 15, 2020 (“July 2020 Order”) (See Exhibit A – July 2020 Order). The July 2020 Order incorporated my late payment concerns with the inclusion of Paragraph 3(d), “the party that owes Smith Ostler must pay it directly to the other party by February 15 of each year. If the true up is not paid by February 15, interest shall accrue in the amount of 10% of the total amount owed, each day the payment is late.” This specific clause was included in several drafts of the July 2020 order prior to signature. In order to calculate the Smith Ostler payment, Paragraph 3(a) of the July 2020 Order instructed, “the parties shall exchange their year-to-date paystubs and bonus/stock documentation by June 30th and December 31st each year.”

6.

Following the July 2020 Order, Father paid his first Smith Ostler on time in February 2021.

However, Father quickly reverted to his old ways and was late in making base child support payments in August 2021, September 2021 and January 2022, without any repercussions.

The July 2020 Order does not address late base child support payments. Father was also late in making the February 2022 Smith Ostler payment, which was addressed in the July 2020 Order by accruing daily interest.

Father was sixteen days late in making the Smith Ostler child support payment. As a result of the late February 2022 payment, Father paid $24,268 in interest.

Father did not dispute the interest amount.

7.

On March 23, 2022, for the first time since Paragraph 3(d) was drafted in June 2020, Father’s counsel sent a letter alleging the interest amount was an “obvious error” and wanted to stipulate an amendment. I was adamantly against freely modifying the agreement, especially given

FEB 09, 2024 - FEB 15, 2024 the circumstances that Father was again late in making child support payments. The interest amount was not an error and was specifically included in the agreement. In fact, during negotiations, Paragraph 3 was modified at the request of Father but not the interest rate clause (See Exhibit B – June 24, 2020 Letter). Father had no issue and knowingly agreed to the interest rate. The interest rate was a bargained for exchange and I made concessions to settle my request for order.

8.

On June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, Father missed the deadline to provide his financial documents to calculate the next Smith Ostler amount.

Father also missed the February 15, 2023, deadline again to pay Smith Ostler child support. Despite paying late fees in 2022, Father was still not deterred from being late again in February 2023. If Father is not held in contempt, he will continue to disregard the court’s orders, as he has done for years since the inception of the dissolution in 2015, and the children will continue to not receive child support on time.

9.

On June 6, 2023, I filed a motion for Contempt of court because Father did not provide his paystubs and bonus/stock documentation that was due on June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022.

The July 2020 Order specifically states, “the parties shall exchange their year-to-date paystubs and bonus/stock documentation by June 30th and December 31st each year.”

10. My attorney, Kathryn Schlepphorst, sent at least two letters (dated March 30, 2023 and July 19, 2022) to his counsel requesting this.

I sent several emails requesting the documentation as well.

11.

Finally, after the initial Contempt motion was filed and over a year after the documents were due, Father provided his financial documents on August 3, 2023. Father finally provided his earnings statements from January 1, 2022 to July 15, 2022 and December 3, 2022 to December 16, 2022.

The earnings statements show that Apple, Inc. directly deposited approximately $14,100 into Father’s bank account every month. On April 22, 2022, Father’s earnings statement shows that he received $996,820.95 in wages.

And on May 13, 2022,

Father received another $43,187.00 in wages.

On information and belief, Father stopped receiving income from Apple, Inc. after May 13, 2022. The paystubs and bonus/stock documentation was not due until June 30, 2022.

Since Father received payment twice a month, the paystubs would have accompanied the payment. If for some reason Father did not receive his paystubs, he had the ability to request them from his employer, log onto ADP and retrieve them himself, or subpoena the documents anytime between May 13, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and even any time after that.

Father had the ability to exchange his financial documents, the same way he did so for year 2021. Father willfully failed to comply with the July 2020 Order to exchange financial documents. Father also paid the principal Smith Ostler amount for child support on August 3, 2023, in the amount of $108,476.00, but failed to pay the daily interest charges that added up to $1,822,464.00 (10% of $108,476 x 168 days late).

12.

F a t h e r refused to permit his attorney to accept service on the initial Contempt charge and I was forced to file a request for the Court to issue an order permitting service by publication.

My request for service by publication was granted. The hearing on the initial Contempt charge was finally heard on November 6, 2023, after several delays because of Father’s evasion of service. My initial Contempt charge was dismissed without prejudice on technicality.

13.

Father had the ability to comply with the court orders requiring exchange of financial information on June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022.

Father had direct access to his paystubs and W-2 through his employer’s payroll company, ADP. Father did not even request the required documents from his employer, Apple, Inc. until June 20, 2023 (See Exhibit C – June 23, 2023 Letter). On June 23, 2023, Father’s counsel was specifically notified that “your client does indeed have immediate access to his 2022 paystubs and 2022 W2 statements through ADP services.” (See Exhibit D – June 23, 2023 Email).

Furthermore, Father received payment from

FEB 09, 2024 - FEB 15, 2024 Apple so he could have provided the financial information by way of bank statements showing how much money he received. There was also nothing preventing Father from subpoenaing the documents from Apple prior to June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, in order to meet the court ordered deadline.

14.

Father had the ability comply with the court order to make payment by February 15, 2023, and avoid the accrued interest. His failure to comply resulted in interest in the amount of $1,822,464.00, which he also has to ability to pay. On information and belief, Father sold his property at 25 Rancheria, Carmel Valley, CA in the amount of $2,500,000 in August 2023.

Additionally, Father’s federal taxable compensation for year 2022 was $1,232,419.51, which is significant compared to the fraction of that amount owed for Smith Ostler.

15.

The court issued the order at issue on July 15, 2020.

Father had knowledge of the underlying order when he negotiated and signed the order. Father was also served a copy of the filed order on July 16, 2020. Father had the ability to obey the court order by retrieving the required documents to exchange information, calculate, and pay the Smith Ostler child support amount. Father was willfully disobedient to the order by not abiding when he had the ability.

16.

F a t h e r should be found guilty of all four counts of Contempt.

17.

As a result of Father’s failure to abide by the 2020 Order, I have incurred significant attorney’s fees in the amount of $20,882.99, as of October 31, 2023, which does not include the initial reply, November court appearance, and future court appearances and publication costs—if Father continues to evade service. Additionally, I respectfully request the court to grant attorney’s fees.
