Ex Parte D.b. and K.s. (in Re D.b. and K.s. v. K.s.b.)

Summary

The court held that the evidence did not satisfy the heightened standard required to transfer custody from the grandparents to the mother. Although the mother may have shown changed circumstances and present fitness, she failed to show that changing custody would materially promote the child's welfare enough to outweigh the disruption of removing her from a stable home. The judgment affirming the custody modification was reversed and the case was remanded.
