The applicant father and respondent mother brought competing motions regarding the sale of the matrimonial home and a request for a parenting assessment.
The father sought interim exclusive possession of the home and a section 30 assessment under the Children's Law Reform Act, while the mother sought to enforce a prior trial order to sell the home.
The court granted the mother's motion, ordering the father to vacate the home so it could be sold, finding his request for exclusive possession was an improper attempt to stay the final trial decision.
The court dismissed the father's motion for a parenting assessment, concluding that the issues were factual rather than clinical and that further testing would be unnecessarily intrusive to the children.
