Opinion

No. 13–0013.

2013-08-7

In re the MARRIAGE OF Robert Louis BERNS and Sally Lynn Berns. Upon the Petition of Robert Louis Berns, Petitioner–Appellee, and Concerning Sally Lynn Berns, Respondent–Appellant.


I would reverse in part and conclude that Sally should be awarded sole physical care of the child. Sally is willing to communicate and be flexible in providing the child's care. Sally can offer superior care. The best interests of the child support the conclusion that Sally be awarded sole physical care. I concur in part because I agree with the majority's decision as it relates to the parties' income for child support calculations. I also dissent in part regarding the award of attorney fees to Robert. I would remand for a determination of Robert's visitation terms and his child support obligation.
