• 228 Conn. App. 127

Syllabus

The defendant father appealed from the trial court's judgment denying his postjudgment motion for an order seeking a passport for the parties' minor child and granting the plaintiff mother's postjudgment motion to modify the custody of the child. Held: The trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the defendant's motion for an order seeking a passport for the child, as there was evidence to support the court's finding that it was not in the child's best interest to grant the motion. The trial court erred in granting the plaintiff's postjudgment motion for modification of custody of the child, as that court improperly determined that the language of the parties' agreement was clear and unambiguous as to their intent with respect to the child's schooling, and the case was remanded for a determination of the parties' intent after consideration of relevant extrinsic evidence.
