The mother applied for sole decision-making, primary care, child support, and a restraining order following a highly conflicted separation marked by the father's family violence, harassment, and erratic behaviour.
The father, who was self-represented, sought primary care and refused to pay child support unless granted equal parenting time or primary care.
The court granted the mother sole decision-making and primary care, finding the father's history of abuse and inability to co-parent made joint decision-making impossible.
The court ordered supervised parenting time for the father, imputed his income for retroactive and ongoing child support, and issued a permanent restraining order to protect the mother and child.
