Description:
Beckley, West Virginia family law lawyer represented the Defendant in a child custody dispute.
Petitioner Lori B.[1] ("Mother") appeals the Family Court of Raleigh County's October 16, 2023, and December 19, 2023, orders that modified its July 7, 2022, Modification Order by awarding Respondent Danny F. ("Father") equal (50-50) custodial allocation of the parties' children. Father and the guardian ad litem ("GAL") for the children filed responses in support of the family court's decision.[2] Mother did not file a reply. The issue is whether there had been a substantial change of circumstances that was not known or anticipated since the July 2022 order that justified the custodial modification pursuant to West Virginia Code § 48-9-401 (2022).
Outcome: Vacated and Remanded
