A-25-0175, Dorina Mahler v. William Mahler (Appellant)
Douglas County District Court, Judge Leanne M. Srb
Attorney for Appellant: Desirae M. Solomon
Attorney for Appellee: Ryan M. Hoffman (Bressman, Hoffman, Jacobs & Quandt)
Civil Action: Modification of Parenting Plan
Action Taken by Trial Court: Dorina filed a complaint to modify the parties’ parenting plan for their child and William filed a counterclaim. The trial court modified multiple provisions in the parties’ parenting plan and declined to adopt Williams’s proposed plan.
Assignments of Error on Appeal: Did the trial court err in: (1) finding that the parties agreed to follow the child’s treating doctor’s recommendations and agreed they will not attempt to subpoena the testimony of the treating doctors, counselors, dentists, orthodontists, etc., or their records for a disposition or a court hearing of any kind for any reason; (2) deciding that if there is a disagreement regarding the choice of providers outside the current treating professionals, the parties will defer to the recommendation of the professional who made the recommendation; (3) ordering that the child would attend schools based on Dorina’s address; (4) ordering the child to attend summer school; (5) ordering that a parent can enroll the child in an activity during the other parent’s parenting time and not ordering that the parties shall discuss any school related and extracurricular activities that span during both parents’ time; (6) determining Dorina will have unilateral authority to track William and third parties through the child’s cell phone during his parenting time; and (7) failing to find William’s proposed parenting plan was in the child’s best interests.
