Nicholas Haas A NH Man Is Thrown in Debtors Prison By Judge Edward Tenney For Not Being Able To Pay For A Retroactive Court Order Issued Through The NH Family Court.
The same Judge that court orders Mothers out of Methadone treatment to regain custody of their children. The same Judge that court orders parents into programs that don't exist.
Even though Debtors Prison was abolished in the 1800’s, many people in the US are being incarcerated because of debt.
Samantha Haas has forwarded a letter to us which is posted below and which outlines the circumstance of her husband Nicholas Haas being thrown in jail. What was Nicholas’s crime? A NH Family Court determined Debt! Yes that is right. The NH Family Court decided to make a retroactive order to make Nicholas responsible for paying $22,000 to his former wife. When he couldn’t pay it he was jailed by Judge Tenney.
Some surmise that there is more to this and that Nicholas did this to himself for not paying his ex-wife the child support that she deserves. Some surmise he is a dead beat dad. That is not the case according to his current wife Samantha. Samantha told us that Nicholas pays his support regularly through wage garnishment. He is actually current with his support obligations. His debt is only a result of the courts retroactive order in which Nicholas was order to pay almost $5,000 a month for five previous months, which this included alimony payments.
This type of mentality is something out of the 60’s when police departments would stop people driving through their towns and arrest them for a frivolous charge, maybe speeding and then the local Judge would hold a trial and force the person to pay for a crime they didn’t commit and if they refused to pay they would be thrown in jail. The only difference here is that instead of the money going directly into the Judges pocket it funds the system. The same illegitimate system that continues pays their salary which gives these people an incentive to continue doing what they are doing.
According to Samantha Haas when Nicholas was ordered to incarceration by Judge Tenney, Nicholas was on the verge of filing for bankruptcy.
After hearing the facts, It appears that the NH family court system is helping to play a part in destroying another person’s ability to support themselves and their family.
According to Samantha, she and her husband have had to get financial assistance to pay for necessities such as heat. They are struggling just to survive. Samantha stated that anyone who didn’t believe her story was welcome to stop by their residence as they have nothing to hide.
It is know that the NH family Court System is biased against men. We have been told that MSNBC recently called the NH Family Court System the most biased and bigoted system in the US. Only 8% of the men in the state of NH get custody of their children. The lowest percentage in the county.
So now the question remains. Nicholas had been working and having his wages garnished to pay support. What happens now? Is the Jail he is sitting in now paying his support obligations? I am sure that’s not the case.
It’s not rocket science here. If Nicholas isn’t working, he has no wages and therefore no wage garnishment and therefore his debt continues to increase. How does this help his children and ex-wife who at least had money coming in?
Here is a letter from Samantha Haas. Anyone that can help is encouraged to contact her.

Please read this below as I have sent this to WMUR Channel 9 News, The Concord Monitor, The Union Leader, The Hooksett Banner, Judge Ed Kelly, Gov. Lynch, the Redress Grievance Committee, The GAL Board, The Attorney Discipline Office and The Judicial Conduct Committee....and to anyone who will listen and stand up for Father's Rights...and the Rights of an AMERICAN Family.
My husband,37 year old, Nicholas Haas of Hooksett NH, experienced first hand the corrupt system in our family courts.
Nicholas has been a software consultant for Unifund, LLC in Nashua, NH for 7 years. He is a father, husband, friend, son, brother, leads worship in our church, is the President of Jesus is the Way Worldwide Missions, a Missionary for Haiti, basketball coach for his step-son's basketball team each year, nursing home volunteer and just recently was elected for the Town of Hooksett's Budget Committee.
My husband is the victim of court corruption and Parental Alienation. He seperated from his first wife in 2004, finalized in June 2007. Nicholas has two daughters with his ex-wife, now ages 7 & 9 years.
In November 2006, Marital Master Leonard Green issued an order in which my husband could not comply. To pay his ex-wife $4650 per month, $3.060 in child support and $1500 in alimony, retroactive to August 18, 2006....placing my husband $22,800 in the negative with the system. Another order was issued for my husband to pay $2000 per month, by Marital Master Jennifer Lemire, which he showed considerable proof of not having the financial means to pay, and a $23,729.55 was added as an abeyance for his inability to pay. All of which has happened within the Manchester Family Division.
By proof I mean, letters from the town for emergency need for rental and fuel assistance, being denied a personal loan to try to comply with this order, a statement from his employer that sales are down due to the weakened economy and proof of bills he pays monthly etc.
Nicholas pays 33% of his salary, plus 33% of his monthly commissions, plus gave the sale of the marital home and personal items to his ex-wife, covers both children under medical and dental insurance, provides the children with a $250,000 life insurance policy naming his ex as the beneficiary for the children and pays any uninsured medical and dental expenses for both children.
Nicholas has not seen his two children from his previous marriage since September 26, 2009.
Based on the years of evidence and proof that Nicholas, myself and other members have collected over the years, of the constant abuses by his ex in front of the children, telephone threats resulting in several police reports against his ex-wife, motions and filings of an ex-parte relief from the very beginning as his exwife was unstable and threatening the lives of herself and the two children, name-calling, verbal threatening, brainwashing the children (which we have proof of direct statements made by the children) etc. Nicholas sent a letter to the GAL asking only to "TEMPORARILY SUSPEND HIS VISITATION" to stop the abuse the children were witnessing, to protect them from anymore emotional trauma, and asking to change the arrangements for Supervised Exchanges, no motion was EVER filed with the court suspending his parental rights AT ANY TIME and this request has gone almost TWO YEARS UNANSWERED.
The GAL and ex-wife denied Nicholas phone contact with his children, denied any contact with the children's schools, denied him any information relative to the children in regards to their healthcare, education, extracurricular activities. The GAL Board has been aware, as has the Attorney Discipline Office and Judge Ed Kelly. Nicholas has complied with everything he has been asked to do by the courts while it still goes unanswered why he is denied seeing his children.
He has requested all along, as I can provide years of actual documented proof for all who are interested.
Nicholas and I have our son (mine from a previous marriage) and our 2 year old daughter. Nicholas' children from his previous marriage have never met their sister.
I am outraged at the injustice of the family courts in the State of NH. My husband is not a criminal and does NOT deserve to be treated as such. My husband's story needs to be public. Parental Alienation exists and it is child abuse. I have people willing to support my claims and others who have these similar stories to share with the public.
My husband is sitting in the Valley Street Jail, while I desperately try to find $10,040 in CASH to release him. They are holding him based on a contempt on his inability to pay...what I fear is now up to $30,000. (Mind you, Nick has shown the court, his ex-wife and her attorney, as well as the GAL, all of his financial affidavits proving for 5 years now that he cannot financially comply.)
The only thing in this God forsaken world that my husband is guilty of is trying to be a good father and role model to his children...he has been denied his rights to his children and he deserves to be heard.
Happy Father's Day.
For all evidence and to discuss it further, please call me, Samantha Haas, at 603-858-6634. Thank you. My husband is not a criminal...and for all of you who know my son, Lucas Supplee (we also have Emma our 2 year old)....Nick is his step-father, basketball coach and we have been members of our PTA. As mentioned above, Nick has also been elected for our Town's Budget Committee. Please come together and help me and my children take a stand against corruption and parental alienation and help me bring my husband home to us.
Parental Alienation and corruption of our court system EXISTS...Please stand up and fight with me against this ABUSE.
The court in their infinite wisdom immediately put Nicholas into the red. When Nicholas couldn’t pay that debt that they determined that he owed, he went in front of this same court and not another that was neutral and unbiased. This same court threw this man in jail for not being able to afford to pay the debt that they created.
