The father brought a contempt motion against the mother for breaching prior court orders regarding parenting time and information sharing concerning their child.
The court found that the mother had intentionally failed to facilitate the child's relationship with the father, withheld medical and school information, and interfered with the child's communication with the father.
The judge determined that the mother's actions constituted willful disobedience and that she had not taken reasonable steps to comply with the orders.
As a remedy, the court ordered a change in the child's primary residence to the father, with the mother's contact suspended for 60 days, and granted the father temporary sole decision-making authority.
The decision emphasized the importance of upholding court orders and the negative impact of parental alienation on children.
