The applicant father sought to prevent the temporary relocation of the 22-month-old child to Italy with the respondent mother, and for temporary sole custody and an equal parenting schedule.
The respondent mother sought temporary sole custody and permission to relocate with the child to Italy for a new job opportunity.
The court denied the mother's request to relocate, finding it not in the child's best interests on an interim basis due to the potential disruption to the child's relationship with the father and the lack of compelling financial benefit.
The court ordered a progressive parenting schedule for the father, including overnights, and joint decision-making pending trial.
