A family law trial concerning parenting arrangements, child support, and related issues for a child born to parents who separated when the child was eight months old.
The applicant sought sole decision-making responsibility over health and education, while the respondent sought joint decision-making with tie-breaking authority.
The court found a pattern of coercive control and poor communication by the respondent, resulting in an order granting the applicant sole decision-making responsibility over health and education, with joint responsibility over culture and extracurricular activities.
The court maintained the existing parenting time schedule (approximately 40% with the respondent), imputed income to both parties, and ordered child support with a net offset.
The court also determined that private school tuition was not a section 7 expense and ordered retroactive support calculations.
