The applicant father brought an urgent motion to modify a parenting agreement regarding supervised access to his three children, which the respondent mother had unilaterally restricted to virtual contact due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The court found the matter urgent, emphasizing the need to uphold existing court orders and provide stability for children during uncertain times.
The court varied the access order, allowing for in-person supervised access at the paternal grandparents' home starting April 11, 2020, provided the father moved there and adhered to COVID-19 protocols.
Until then, access was to be virtual.
