The trial concerned parenting arrangements for the parties' 12-year-old daughter and the mother's claim for spousal support.
The mother sought primary residence, sole decision-making, and discretionary parenting time for the father, along with orders dispensing with the father's consent for documentation and travel.
The father sought joint decision-making, specified parenting time, and reunification therapy, and dismissal of the spousal support claim.
The court found significant family violence perpetrated by the father against the mother and child, and that the child's views against contact were independent and justified.
The court granted the mother primary residence and sole decision-making, ordered the father's parenting time to be at the mother's discretion (considering the child's views), dispensed with the father's consent for documentation and travel, and ordered the father to pay spousal support.
The father's claims for joint decision-making and reunification therapy were dismissed.
