The parties separated and engaged in high-conflict family litigation.
The mother and her family influenced the young child to make false allegations of sexual abuse against the father, leading to criminal charges of which the father was ultimately acquitted.
The father was denied parenting time for over two years due to the allegations and the involvement of the Children's Aid Society.
The court found parental alienation occurred, though not necessarily with malice, and ordered a swift phased-in return to a 50/50 shared parenting schedule.
The court imputed income to the mother for child and spousal support purposes, ordered a brief continuation of spousal support, and dismissed the father's claim for malicious prosecution.
