The applicant father brought a motion for increased and unsupervised parenting time with the parties' young child.
The respondent mother brought a cross-motion for interim spousal and child support.
The mother alleged a history of severe domestic violence and raised concerns about a potential murder-suicide, arguing that the father's parenting time must remain supervised.
The court found that while there was some evidentiary basis for the abuse allegations, there was no evidence that the father posed a risk to the child.
The court ordered a gradual transition from third-party supervision to supervision by the paternal grandmother, and then to unsupervised parenting time of 30 hours per week.
On the cross-motion, the court found the mother was entitled to interim support and ordered the father to pay $1,739 monthly in spousal support and $855 monthly in child support based on his 2018 income of $93,035, declining to impute higher income to him or any income to the mother at this interim stage.
