NOVA SCOTIA COURT OF APPEAL
Citation: Reeves v. Reeves, 2010 NSCA 35
Date: 20100428
Docket: CA 318614
Registry: Halifax
Between:
Natasha Olivia Reeves
Appellant
v.
Bruce Allen Reeves
Respondent
Judge: The Honourable Justice David P. S. Farrar
Appeal Heard: April 13, 2010
Subject: Family Law – custody and access – considerations – requirement that the children live in a designated area.
Summary: This was an appeal by the mother from a decision ordering the mother as custodial parent to live with the children within the boundaries of the former City of Dartmouth, Cole Harbour, Eastern Passage or Bedford. To do so she was required to move the children from Porter’s Lake. The mother also appealed two other provisions in the corollary relief order, a provision extending the time for the father’s alternative weekend access and a provision ordering that the father would have first choice of summer access times in each year following 2009.
Issue: Did the learned trial judge err in granting the relief?
Result: The trial judge did not make any material error, seriously misapprehended the evidence or make an error of law in deciding the issues under appeal. Appeal dismissed without costs.
