This case involved a family law trial addressing child support, property claims (unjust enrichment and resulting trust), and parenting issues following a 14-year marriage breakdown.
The applicant, Golnaz Amirmoezi, sought retroactive and prospective child support from the respondent, Saman Motieenia, and the added respondent, Elaheh Amirmoezi (Golnaz's mother), sought repayment of funds invested in real estate projects managed by Saman.
The court found Saman engaged in blameworthy conduct by failing to provide financial disclosure and comply with court orders.
It imputed an income of $70,000 per year to Saman for prospective child support and ordered him to pay significant retroactive and arrears.
The court also found that Saman owed Elaheh $830,700 based on express trust, resulting trust, and breach of fiduciary duty, ordering immediate release of funds held in trust.
Parenting orders were made, allowing Golnaz to travel with the children without Saman's consent and establishing virtual parenting time for Saman.
