The Children's Aid Society brought a motion for summary judgment seeking findings that a child was in need of protection and requesting placement with the father under supervision.
The father brought a concurrent motion for custody.
The mother opposed both motions.
The court found that the child suffered emotional harm due to the mother's pattern of alienating the child from the father, withholding access contrary to court orders, coaching the child to make false abuse allegations, and failing to address the child's medical and developmental needs.
The court granted both motions, placing the child in the sole custody of the father with specified access to the mother, and terminated the father's child support obligation.
