IN CUSTODY
4ay COUORDER
AND NOW, this At of April, 2009, upon consideration of the attached
Custody Conciliation Report, it is ordered and directed as follows:
1.
2.
3.
The father, Kevin M. Ryan, and the mother, Melissa L. Ryan, shall enjoy shared
legal custody of Cameron R. Ryan, born February 13, 2005.
The parties shall also share physical custody of the minor child under the
following schedule:
A. The parties shall do a two day, two day and three day schedule with an
exchange of custody being at 6:00 p.m. This schedule generally contemplates
the mother having the child for Monday and Tuesday, the father having the
child for Wednesday and Thursday and then the mother having the child for
the weekend with the parties flipping the schedule the following week.
The legal counsel for the parties shall have a telephone conference with the custody
conciliator on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, at 8:00 a.m. The purpose of this call is to
discuss the potential for father flipping his work schedule at Land O'Lakes so that
his weekend off from work would change and the parties could change the schedule
outlined above such that mother would end up with custody of Cameron on a
weekend that mother's other child is with her. In the event a resolution of that issue
cannot be reached, the matter may be scheduled for a hearing before the court at
which time mother may take any position she desires with respect to a suggested
permanent order. Additionally, the Conciliator may at that time address a possible
different custody arrangement pending the hearing which could include a week
on/week off basis pending the hearing to insure that the other children of the mother
are with Cameron at least a period of time custody.
