The parties brought competing motions for temporary custody, child support, and exclusive possession of the matrimonial home.
The applicant father sought a 'Bird's Nest' order where the parents would rotate in and out of the home, while the respondent mother sought sole custody and exclusive possession.
The court dismissed the request for a 'Bird's Nest' order, finding it unnecessary and disruptive to the mother's home-based employment.
The court ordered joint custody with primary residence to the mother, granted her exclusive possession of the home, and ordered the father to pay child support based on an imputed income of $71,000.
The mother's request for a restraining order was dismissed due to lack of objective evidence.
