Question juridique clé
Whether the lower court arbitrarily attributed parental authority and custody to the mother
Solution extraite
No arbitrariness was shown; the custody award to the mother was upheld.
Motifs extraits
The court weighed the child’s stability, existing living arrangement with the mother, proximity to school and activities, the parents’ communication, and the fact that the mother’s situation had improved. It found the father’s criticisms and the SPMi report insufficient to overturn the lower court’s broad discretion.
