'''Boldt v. Boldt''', framed as a child-custody case originating in the state of Oregon, actually concerns the proposed non-therapeutic [[circumcision]] of a boy, intended to indulge his father's religious urges.
On Sunday, May 30, 2004, the mother, Russian-born Mrs. Lia Nikolaevna Boldt, learned from her son, nine-year-old Mikhail James Boldt, known as Misha/Jimmy, that the custodial father, James Harlan Boldt, was planning on having him [[circumcised ]] as part of the father's plan to convert the child from the Russian Orthodox faith to the Jewish faith.<ref>{{REFdocument
