Supreme Court of Delaware

Packwood v. Speller

April 2, 2020

Summary

The Court affirmed the Family Court's order granting the Stepmother visitation with the Child every other weekend. It held that the Family Court properly applied the statutory requirements for third-party visitation and did not clearly err in finding a substantial prior relationship, unreasonable objections, and no substantial interference with the Mother's relationship with the Child. The Court also rejected challenges based on factual misstatements and alleged judicial bias during the Child interview.
