A motion to change a final custody order from 2007 in which the maternal uncle was awarded custody of a child on consent of both parents.
The mother sought to regain custody after achieving sobriety and stability following a history of substance abuse.
The court found a material change in circumstances and awarded custody to the mother, finding that the uncle's inflexibility, controlling behavior, and unwillingness to facilitate the child's relationship with her mother and paternal family were contrary to the child's best interests, despite the uncle providing a stable home environment.
