Domestic Relations: Child Custody-Sole Custody

Where a father challenged the denial of his motion to modify child custody and granting in part the mother’s motion, granting her sole legal custody of their daughter, the judgment is affirmed because the trial court properly considered and weighed the evidence and correctly found that the mother was more likely to allow the child to have frequent, continuing and meaningful contact with the other parent.

Judgment is affirmed.
