Summers and Naughton

The case of *Summers and Naughton* concerned an application by the father regarding his child, born in March 2004. The proceedings were heard by Guest J.

The central legal issues before the court were the arrangements for the child's long-term care, welfare, and development, and specifically, where the child should live and the extent of the father's time with the child.

Guest J dismissed the father's application filed on 8 June 2005. The court ordered that the parties share equally the long-term responsibility for the child's care, welfare, and development. The child was ordered to live with the mother, and the father was to spend time with the child at times to be agreed between the parties. All extant applications were dismissed, and all matters were removed from the Active Pending Cases List.
