Description: Fayetteville, Arkansas family law divorce lawyers represented the parties in a dissolution action.
Emily and Jordan were divorced by a decree of the Washington County Circuit Court entered on June 10, 2022. The decree awarded joint custody of the couple's child on a "week-on, week-off" basis. On October 28, Jordan filed a motion to modify custody, for support, and for contempt. He alleged that there had been material changes in circumstances that caused it to be in the child's best interest to change custody. Jordan set forth a number of allegations supporting his request for modification, including claims that Emily had refused to coparent in a reasonable manner, refused to communicate with him in a healthy manner, and failed to follow the court's visitation schedule since the divorce decree had been entered. He requested that the court modify the joint-custody arrangement and grant him primary physical and legal custody of their child subject to Emily's reasonable visitation.
