The Children's Aid Society brought a motion for summary judgment to place three children with their father under a six-month supervision order, with the mother's access to be supervised at the Society's discretion.
The father consented, and the mother did not actively oppose the motion.
The court applied the test for summary judgment in child protection proceedings, screened the evidence for admissibility (including business records and children's hearsay statements), and found no genuine issue requiring a trial.
The court concluded that the children continued to be in need of protection and that the proposed order was in their best interests.
