Sloan v. Christianson
Annotate this CaseAfter three years of marriage, George Sloan filed a complaint for divorce from Erin Christianson. The district court entered a divorce judgment awarding shared parental rights and responsibilities of the couple's son to Sloan to Christianson, primary residence of the son to Christianson, and unsupervised contact with the son to Sloan on days when Sloan was not working. Sloan subsequently filed a motion to modify the divorce judgment to obtain sole parental rights and responsibilities and primary residence of the son, alleging a substantial change in circumstances. The district court granted the motion. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the court did not err in making its factual findings, err as a matter of law, or abuse its discretion in awarding sole parental rights and responsibilities to Sloan.
