CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Osborne and Galloway*, heard by Judge Altobelli, the dispute concerned parenting orders for the child of the relationship, X. The court was required to determine the terms of shared parental responsibility, the child's living arrangements, and the specific times each parent would spend with X, as well as ancillary matters relating to communication, parental conduct, and medical care.
The court ordered that the Mother and Father have equal shared parental responsibility for X, with X to live with the Mother. The Father was granted specific, limited time with X, including weekday evenings and weekend mornings on an alternating basis, with provisions for holidays and special occasions. The orders also addressed practical arrangements such as changeover locations, parental communication regarding X's well-being and medical treatment, and the use of a communication book.
Furthermore, the court imposed injunctions restraining both parents from denigrating the other in X's presence or discussing court proceedings with X. The Father was specifically restrained from consuming alcohol while X was in his care or within 24 hours prior. The orders also stipulated that X was to be known formally only by the name X, and the Father was permitted to communicate with X's medical practitioners, with the Mother to provide necessary authorities. The matter was adjourned for further consideration.
