Supreme Court of Arkansas
Amalie E. Singletary, Appellant v. Joseph E. Singletary, Appellee — Baker, J., Dissenting
December 12, 20132013 Ark. LEXIS 608
Summary
Justice Baker dissented from the majority's conclusion that the relocation presumption does not apply when parents share joint legal custody but one parent has primary physical custody. She reasoned that later precedent applied the presumption in comparable joint-custody arrangements and that the majority's distinction based on boilerplate decree language created uncertainty. Justice Baker would have reversed and remanded for reconsideration under the established relocation standard and factors.
