Family law 2026 BCSC 742

M.J.C. v. P.R.C.

The applicant failed to meet the high onus to show actual or reasonably apprehended bias; criticisms of prior decisions and perceived procedural unfairness are matters for appeal, not recusal; the s.211 report had been ordered and the court's scheduling directions do not demonstrate a predetermined outcome, therefore recusal was not justified and the application is dismissed.

R.E.F. v. J.F.

Equal parenting was denied because the respondent has not demonstrated willingness and capacity to cooperate with claimant or to prioritize and reliably manage the childrens' extensive therapeutic, educational and routine needs given his hostility, unreliable history and resistance to joint management; court maintained primary residence with claimant, adjusted and slightly expanded respondent's parenting time, fixed child support on respondent income of $38,393 (producing $585/month effective April 1, 2026), apportioned s.7 special/extraordinary expense shares (claimant 71%, respondent 29%) r…

G.H.R. v. S.L.A.

The Ramsay interim order was varied because developments since the initial order (mother's move to West Vancouver and a concrete preschool plan) constituted compelling reasons; the Twins' best interests require stability by attending local preschool, weekday parenting allocation to the mother to support that stability, and limiting long uninterrupted periods of parenting by the father due to credible findings of family violence and documented anger-management concerns; communication/conduct restrictions in the Ramsay Order remain in force; a s.211 FLA report is ordered to assess all three chi…

M.D.F. v. D.O.T.C.

The court held that a review of 'Parenting Time' in the consent order permits de novo consideration of parenting time, including shared parenting, despite a provision that the children 'principally reside' with the Respondent; an immediate s.211 report was unnecessary and should be deferred until after a transitional increase in parenting time, and on the merits a sudden move to 50/50 was not in the children's best interests so an intermediate increased schedule was ordered; costs were awarded to the Respondent as the substantially successful party on the central issue.
