Nash v. Wilson

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s denial of Nash’s petition to relocate the parties’ teenage children to Florida and modify the existing custody arrangement. The Court held that the Family Court acted within its discretion in declining to appoint a guardian ad litem, properly applied the governing custody-modification framework, appropriately considered the children’s wishes, and made findings supported by the record. The Court also held that the proposed relocation statute was not applicable because it had not been adopted in Delaware.
