Mom served us a couple of years ago with papers outlining how she should have sole custody (50-50 split custody for 10 years to that point). She asked the the OCL to be involved. We agreed. OCL found that the 50-50 should remain, along with a change of schedule and mediation for continuing issues. In the report he lists no negatives associated with our home or conduct. The children wished to remain with both parents on an equal basis. There were numerous negative things about Mom's home. eg; no bed times, both kids and mom sleep together every night on the couch, improper nutrition, no rules, mom bribing the kids to like it better there. He said that if mom and dad could share custody it would be best to let things remain the same. Mom eventually dropped the court action because there was no way to win.
Now... there have been a few changes in circumstance at mom's and we feel that a change is in order.
My question is; can we use the OCL report from last year in our own case? Would it be given similar weight?
cheers!
