Father argued the trial court misapplied the law by failing to include specific arrangements in the parenting plan and by not making sufficient findings as required by statute. The appellate court affirmed, holding that the trial court's detailed findings regarding custody and visitation, including findings of domestic violence and negative impact on the children, were sufficient and rendered further specific parenting plan provisions superfluous.","primaryTopic":"child-custody","topicSlugs":["child-custody","family-law","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=195435","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/scjm-and-bjjm-by-their-next-friend-sdm-and-sdm-individually-appellants-v-110409","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: family-law","topic: family-law","topic: child-custody","text: custody","text: visitation"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/family"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
