The father brought a motion to stay an interim order that allowed the mother to relocate with their two children to Sweden pending a trial scheduled for December.
The court considered the tests for both a stay and leave to appeal, emphasizing that the best interests of the children and continuity of care were paramount.
Finding no grave prejudice or irreparable harm to the father, and noting the assessor's recommendation that the children remain in the mother's primary care, the court dismissed the motion for a stay and awarded costs to the mother.
