On an interim family law motion, the applicant sought sole custody, exclusive possession of the matrimonial home, and other ancillary relief following a high‑conflict separation involving allegations related to parental mental health and domestic conflict.
The court considered conflicting affidavit evidence, a report from the Children’s Aid Society confirming emotional risk to the children from exposure to parental conflict, and the respondent’s mental health treatment.
Emphasizing the best interests of the children and the need for stability, the court granted the applicant interim sole custody and interim exclusive possession of the matrimonial home.
The respondent received structured access several times per week.
The court declined to issue a restraining order and ordered each party to bear their own costs.
