Heather W., Appellant v. Rudy R., Appellee

Summary

The court upheld the superior court's finding that Heather's DUI-related conduct, license problems, relationship-related incidents, and instability constituted a substantial change in circumstances affecting the child. It also upheld the superior court's consideration of the best-interest factors and its treatment of Heather's credibility and lifestyle evidence. The court remanded for an evidentiary hearing because the superior court had not determined whether Rudy had a history of domestic violence or whether he had rebutted the statutory custody presumption.
