Yvonne S., Appellant v. Wesley H., Appellee

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the denial, without an evidentiary hearing, of Yvonne's motion to modify custody. It held that, even accepting her alleged changes in circumstances as true and considering them collectively, she had not shown a substantial change that could warrant altering custody, particularly given Allison's age, maturity, and continuing strong preference to live with her father.
