This motion concerned temporary parenting and decision-making responsibilities for four children following parental separation.
The father sought joint decision-making and shared parenting, while the mother sought sole decision-making and primary parenting with limited time for the father, along with an order for the sale of the matrimonial home.
The court found that the existing 2/2/5/5 shared parenting schedule was not unilaterally imposed and was meeting the children's needs for stability.
Allegations of the father's mental health, substance abuse, and violence were not substantiated by evidence or CAS records.
The court granted the father's motion for joint decision-making and shared parenting, dismissing the mother's request for sole decision-making and restricted parenting time.
Child support was set based on offsetting incomes.
The parties agreed that the father would have an opportunity to purchase the matrimonial home before a sale order.
