The Catholic Children's Aid Society brought a summary judgment motion seeking Crown wardship without access for one child, S.M., and a custody order in favour of the mother for the other child, G.M. The father, who was self-represented, opposed the motion and sought custody or access.
The court found that the father had a history of domestic violence, failed to complete a partner assault response program, and presented numerous unrealistic plans of care.
Finding no genuine issue for trial regarding S.M., the court ordered Crown wardship without access.
For G.M., the court ordered a 12-month supervision order with the child remaining in the mother's care and the father having access at the Society's discretion.
