L.A.S. v. C.W.H.

Syllabus

This is a custody dispute over two minor children, P.H. and V.H. (together, \the Children\). The Children's mother, L.A.S. (\Mother\), lives in Nevada, while the Children live primarily in Tennessee with their father, C.W.H. (\Father\), and his wife (\Stepmother\). Father is the primary residential parent, and Mother sees the Children over the summers and during their breaks from school. On June 12, 2020, Mother filed a petition to modify the permanent parenting plan and for contempt in the Hamilton County Juvenile Court (the \juvenile court\). Mother asked to be named primary residential parent. Following a three-day bench trial, the juvenile court dismissed Mother's petition. The juvenile court determined that no material change in circumstances warranting a change in custod had occurred. Mother timely appealed to this Court. Having thoroughly reviewed the record, we discern no error and affirm the juvenile court's judgment.
