The respondent father brought a motion for unsupervised overnight parenting time with the parties' 11-year-old child.
The father was facing serious criminal charges for possession of child pornography and was subject to strict bail conditions restricting his contact with children.
The applicant mother opposed the motion, citing the father's mental health issues, the criminal charges, and the child's statements of self-harm if forced to have overnight visits.
The court dismissed the father's motion, ordering that supervised parenting time at the visit centre continue to ensure the child's safety and stability pending the outcome of the criminal trial.
