Garrett Irwin, Respondent Below, Appellant v. Jenny Shelby, Petitioner Below, Appellee.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court's award of sole legal custody and primary residential placement to the mother. It held that the Family Court acted within its discretion in rejecting the father's expert's recommendation, resolving credibility conflicts, and weighing the statutory best-interests factors, although the Supreme Court expressed concern about some aspects of the trial judge's analysis. The court concluded that the findings were supported by the record and were not clearly wrong.
