In Re the Marriage of Mark S. Dedie, Petitioner and Melissa J. Springston, Respondent — Coats, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Coats dissented from the majority's reversal of a Colorado district court's enforcement of a New York child-custody determination. He would have treated New York's determination of its own jurisdiction as controlling under the UCCJEA, rather than independently reviewing whether a New York magistrate had properly declined continuing jurisdiction. Justice Marquez joined the dissent.
