Loran v. Loran

by
In 2013, the district court entered a divorce decree dissolving the marriage of Mother and Father. The court awarded primary custody to Mother and awarded Father liberal visitation. Mother later filed a motion seeking relief from the order awarding visitation under Mont. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(1). The district court denied the motion and also awarded joint presumptive child support. The Supreme Court affirmed in part and reversed in part, holding (1) the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the child custody and visitation arrangement aspect of Mother’s motion; but (2) the district court erred by ordering joint presumptive child support without determining that both parties contribute substantially to the children’s expenses as required by Wyo. Stat. Ann. 20-2-304(c). Remanded. View "Loran v. Loran" on Justia Law
