In an uncontested family law trial, the applicant father sought decision-making responsibility, child support, and an equalization of net family property.
The respondent mother's pleadings had been struck and she did not participate.
The court granted the father sole decision-making responsibility and ordered the mother to pay retroactive and prospective child support.
The court declined to attribute value to the mother's contingent interest in a property for equalization purposes, resulting in the father owing a modest equalization payment.
The father was awarded $33,000 in partial indemnity costs.
