SILVER v STRANG [2017] NZHC 942
- Citation
- [2017] NZHC 942
- Court
- High Court
The appeal is dismissed: Judge Harrison correctly found no basis under the Family Court Rules to alter Judge McMeeken's earlier minute; deferral of any orders for shared care pending firm evidence of relocation was appropriate given uncertainty and the child's welfare; and the travel orders permitting limited annual UK trips (generally 28 days, 42 days in alternate Christmas years, emergency two-week trips) struck a proper balance between maintaining UK family ties and the child's schooling and best interests.
