Grandchild visitation of A.L.U.

Summary

The Montana Supreme Court affirmed the district court’s order granting limited, supervised visitation to the maternal grandmother, finding the statutory presumption in favor of the adoptive parents was properly rebutted by clear and convincing evidence that visitation serves the child’s best interests. The Court held that the district court correctly applied the grandparent‑grandchild contact statute and that its factual findings were supported by substantial evidence.
