In an undefended family trial, the applicant sought custody, child support, section 7 expenses, travel and mobility relief, a child surname change, and equalization-related relief following divorce.
The court granted sole custody and broad decision-making authority respecting passports, travel, and relocation, subject to notice requirements and limited mobility restrictions, and authorized the child’s surname change.
The court imputed annual income of $30,000 to the respondent, ordered retroactive and ongoing child support together with shared section 7 expenses, and secured the support obligations against the respondent’s share of trust funds from the sale of the matrimonial home.
The court also determined the equalization issue finally by ordering that neither party pay an equalization payment to the other, and awarded costs to the applicant.
