This case involved a two-week trial concerning a motion to change parenting provisions and child support for two special needs children.
The applicant mother sought sole decision-making and increased child support, while the respondent father sought shared decision-making and expanded parenting time.
The court found a material change in circumstances due to the father's conduct, which led to the withdrawal of the children's essential therapy team.
The final order granted the mother sole decision-making responsibility and primary residence, maintained the father's existing parenting time with minor adjustments, and increased child support retroactively based on the father's updated income.
The court imposed stringent communication controls on the father to prevent further interference with the children's service providers.
