Supreme Court of Delaware

Butler v. Evans

June 14, 2016

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s denial of Butler’s motions for contempt and to modify the parties’ consent order. The court held that the record supported the finding that Evans did not violate the order because Butler had failed to arrange the required visitation and had kept the child with him instead. The court also upheld the denial of modification because the parties could not agree on revised visitation terms, and the issue later became moot.
