Syllabus

CUSTODY – MAGISTRATE – CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES – BEST INTEREST: The trial court did not abuse its discretion when it overturned the magistrate's decision and denied a nonresidential parent's motion to modify the custody decree allocating parental rights and responsibilities because the trial court had a duty to conduct an independent review of the facts and law, and competent and credible evidence supports the trial court's finding that modification was not necessary to serve the best interests of the two children.
