- In a tweet: Unsuccessful appeal against a leave to remove order. In brief: The father (“F”) sought to appeal a leave to remove order in proceedings where the mother (“M”) had been able to establish that he had acted in an angry, violent or otherwise inappropriate manner towards the child. The trial judge’s approach could not be criticised. It had been welfare-based, full weight had been given to the impact of the move on the child’s relationship with F and F’s proposals had not been ignored. Judgment, 05/10/2016, free

- Father's appeal against an order granting permission for the respondent mother to relocate to Moscow with the two children. The issues central to the appeal were: (i) whether the judge attributed too great a weight to the mother's relationship with her present husband (the step-father) at the expense of focusing upon the children's relationship with their father and other welfare issues and (ii) whether he failed sufficiently to analyse the evidence in the case, in particular evidence directed to establishing the mother's motivation in seeking permission to relocate. Appeal dismissed. Judgment, 01/11/2016, free

- A relocation case which looks closely at the issue of motivation. The mother (“M”) had been refused permission to leave the country with the couple’s two children to relocate permanently to Germany, with the first instance judge finding that M’s motivation in relocating was to interfere in the father’s (“F”) relationship with the children. On appeal, the first instance judge was found to have misdirected herself on the issue of motivation as the evidence did not support such a conclusion being made. The decision was set aside and the case remitted. Judgment, 04/07/2014, free
