man has lost his bid for spousal support from a woman he falsely reported to immigration authorities for fraud after the collapse of their relationship. A little more than three years later, the couple separated and the legal battle for spousal support began. According to Funt's ruling, CH told the court, " 'Actually, to be honest My Lord, I only raised' spousal support because [XG] was seeking spousal support." But he said it would be "unfair" to essentially condone CH's false report to immigration authorities by giving him the spousal support he was seeking. Funt also found that CH's threats to XG's immigration status constituted "family violence" under the Family Law Act.
