On an interim motion within a motion to change a final parenting order, the moving party sought interim sole custody, reduced access for the other parent, and increased child support.
The court declined to alter the existing joint custody order on an interim basis, emphasizing that a final order was already in place and the evidentiary record was contradictory and incomplete.
The Office of the Children’s Lawyer report recommending sole custody to the moving party was not given determinative weight because it had not been tested through cross‑examination.
The court maintained the existing custody and access arrangements pending trial but increased child support modestly due to changes in parenting time and circumstances.
