Slappy v. Slappy 2021 ND 186 Docket No.: 20200352 Filing Date: 10/14/2021 Case Type: CHILD CUST & SUPPORT (Div.\Other) Author: Jensen, Jon J.
Highlight: To modify primary residential responsibility after two years, the moving party must meet the requirements of the statutory framework, including that there has been a material change in circumstances of the child or the parties, and that modification is necessary for the best interests of the child.
“Necessary” for the best interests of the child means there must be a showing that the changed circumstances had an adverse effect on the child or there had been a general decline in the child’s condition.
Because continuity and stability in a child’s life is favored, an improvement to the moving party’s life, without evidence of an adverse effect or general decline in the child, is insufficient to modify primary residential responsibility.

Highlight: To establish a prima facie case to warrant an evidentiary hearing on a motion for a change in primary residential responsibility, the moving party must present facts showing there has been both a material change in circumstances and the change is necessary for the best interests of the child under N.D.C.C. § 14-09-06.6(6).
When a party has submitted an affidavit alleging first-hand knowledge of events that constitute a material change in circumstances and implicate the best interest factors, an evidentiary hearing on the motion must be held.
