Everett v. Scott

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s order granting the grandparents monthly third-party visitation with the child. It held that the Family Court properly managed the hearing involving self-represented parents, applied the statutory protections for parental objections, and adequately found by clear and convincing evidence that the objections were unreasonable. The Court also concluded that the Family Court’s findings were supported by the record and reflected the required special weight given to a fit parent’s determination. No separate opinions were filed.
