The applicant father brought a motion to find the respondent mother in contempt of a 2018 access order after he was denied access to the children since December 2019.
The court found that while the preponderance of the evidence suggested the mother's recent attempt to facilitate access was a sham, it did not meet the criminal standard of proof required for contempt.
The motion was dismissed, but no costs were awarded due to the mother's unreasonable conduct.
