For Oink: Case Law

[Tayken]

Friday v. Friday, 2013 ONSC 1931 (CanLII)
Date: 2013-04-02
Docket: FS-10-513-00
URL: CanLII - 2013 ONSC 1931 (CanLII)
Citation: Friday v. Friday, 2013 ONSC 1931 (CanLII)

The justice in this matter goes through and cites most (if not all) the major decisions on "child of the marriage" (in loco parentis) that may be of interest to you.

The case law, based on my limited knowledge of what you have exposed on this public message forum, appears to be (my opinion) similar to the matters you are dealing with. I could be wrong of course, but none the less the case law does go through a detailed analysis of a significant amount of jurisprudence on in loco parentis that may be useful to you.

Good Luck!

Tayken,

Thanks for this, butthe first paragragh scares me, and I can see this being taken out of context.....

The child in question, "opens the step father's laptop only to find that he has been preseting himself as a single man with no kids"?

Also...the decision made in the end was not in the guy's favour. Note: They changed the girl's last name when she was young, no such thing in my case

Oink,

Don't dwell on the results of the order but, rather the case law cited by the justice. It is quite extensive. Seek the holes in the argument and then review the referenced case law. Although the order is NOT what you are looking for in your matter it does give insight into how NOT to argue your case. Also, it gives insight into how case law can be relied upon to build a case against you in your matter.

Some times, only looking for the case law that supports what you want isn't the best approach. I am of the opinion that all angles should be canvased. As well, if you are unable to find anything similar to your matter that resulted in what you "want" then, it may be motivation to settle rather than litigate on your position.

Also, this may be how the other party in your matter presents their argument... Some of the jurisprudence they may rely upon etc... There are two sides to every coin and they are different. You may need to flip the coin over and see how the money may land...

Good Luck!
Tayken
