CaseChat Overview and Summary
The matter of *Dreyfus and Kearney* concerned an application before Justice Ryan regarding the enrolment of a child, B, born in April 1999. The dispute involved the applicant father and the respondent mother, who were unable to agree on which school B should attend.
The central legal issue before the court was to determine the appropriate school for the child B, given the disagreement between the parents. This required the court to consider the best interests of the child in making a determination regarding their education.
Justice Ryan ordered that both the applicant father and the respondent mother enrol the child B at H School. This enrolment was specifically for the purpose of B attending that school from the commencement of the 2011 school year.
