3. Items resolved by agreemant: The partias agreed that any order should
includa that the parties share legal custody and that thay will give Bach othar sixty
(60) days advance notice in the event that they are taking the children out of state.
4, Issues yet to be resolved: An ultimate custody schedule.
5. The Plaintiff's position on custody is as follows: Plaintiff flied this
Petition for Modification and requested that the modification occur on the existing
schedule. Currently, the children are with him every-other weekend from Friday
until Sunday and in addition, every Friday night until Saturday, returning the
children by 6:00 p,m. on Saturday. The Plaintiff requested that the schedule be
changed such that the children are with him on Sundays until Tuesday morning,
instead of every Fridey night until Saturday. His reason for the change is that there
should be a full weekend when both parties have the children, and a full weekend
when they do not.
6. The Defendant's position on custody is as follows: Defendant was
adem ant that there be no change in the schedule. She believes that the children
are in a routine and that it would not be in their best interest to change their routine
even though the children are 5 and 3 Y:. years old. She also made soms claim that
the children would have to spend more time in day care if the change requested by
the Father was provided.
7. Need for separate counsel to represent children: None requested.
2
8. Need for independent psychological evaluation or counseling: Neither
party requested,
9. A hearing in this matter is expected to take 2 hours.
10. Other matters and comments: The parties reached an agreement in
1 994 for a custody schedule which essentially provides the Father with the children
every weekend, one weekend being from Friday until Saturday, and the other
weekend being from Friday through Sunday. The Father requested a change so
that a weekend could be freed up and instead of having the children from Friday to
Saturday, he would request that the children be with him from Sunday until
Tuesday morning.
Mother was adamant and unwilling to make any change in the schedule. Her
first concern was that the children would have to spend more time in day care in
that she normally drops the children off at 8:30 a.m. and picks them up at 3:30
p.m. Father, upon hearing her concern, indicated that he would agree to have in
the order a provision that he would drop the children off no earlier than 8:30 a,m.
and would have them picked up no later than 4:30 since he would come up from
York, This would mean that the children essentially would have one additional hour
in day care Linder Father's proposal.
The Conciliator tried to impress upon the Mother that the change by Father
was reasonable and that the overall custody order in this case provided Father with
