The paternal grandmother brought a motion for a temporary order for alternate weekend access and specified holiday time with her four-year-old granddaughter, who was placed in the custody of the maternal grandmother.
The maternal grandmother opposed a formal order, preferring to manage access at her discretion due to concerns about the paternal grandmother's son and grandson.
The court determined that section 104 of the Child, Youth and Family Services Act governed the motion and found that a formal access order was in the child's best interests to manage the tension between the grandmothers.
The court granted alternate weekend access with conditions prohibiting the biological father's presence during visits.
