Supreme Court of Delaware

Hunter v. Gamble

December 10, 2018

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s denial of face-to-face visitation between an incarcerated father and his child, while preserving weekly telephone contact and monthly photographs. The Court held that Father’s failure to provide the hearing transcript prevented appellate review of his factual challenges, and the existing record did not show error in the Family Court’s consideration of the statutory visitation factors. The Court directed Father’s allegations that Mother was violating the visitation order to the Family Court in the first instance.
