The court dismissed the respondent's motion challenging jurisdiction based on Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments.
The respondent, Dario Jackson, brought a motion to dismiss the application of the applicant, Thea Jackson, for divorce and child support, arguing lack of jurisdiction, failure to state a claim, and failure to rebut his "affidavit of fact." The court rejected all arguments, finding it had jurisdiction under the Divorce Act and Constitution Act, 1867, and that the applicant's claims were properly before the court.
The court characterized the respondent's arguments as Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments (OPCA) and dismissed the motion.
Motion to restrict mother's access to a supervised centre dismissed; community supervised access ordered.
The applicant father brought a motion for temporary custody and an order restricting the respondent mother's access to their surviving child to a supervised access centre, following the tragic drowning death of their other child while in the mother's care.
The mother, who was facing criminal charges related to the death, brought a cross-motion for increased supervised access in the community.
The court dismissed the father's motion to restrict access to a centre, finding no evidence that the mother posed a risk of harm while supervised by approved third parties.
The court ordered that the mother have supervised access in the community and daily video contact, emphasizing the child's best interests and the principle of maximum contact.
