The applicant mother sought sole decision-making, primary residence, specific parenting time, child support, and a restraining order.

The respondent father sought joint decision-making, continuation of shared parenting, and determination of school.

The court found both parents contributed to family violence and conflict.

A final parenting order was made establishing parallel decision-making (mother for medical/dental, father for education/extra-curricular), primary residence with the father, and a 2/2/5/5 shared parenting schedule.

The mother's claim for a restraining order was dismissed, and child support was deferred pending further evidence.

The wife's application for family law relief involved equalization of property, including a fishing boat, tax debts, and an inheritance exclusion, as well as post-separation adjustments for occupation rent.

The court dismissed the wife's claims regarding the fishing boat and inheritance exclusion due to insufficient tracing evidence.

It accepted the husband's proportional tax debt deductions.

Prejudgment interest was awarded to the wife on the equalization payment from the date of separation.

The claim for occupation rent was denied, considering the parties' financial arrangements, the wife's delay in claiming, and her benefit from property value increase.

A divorce order was granted on consent.
