S.F. v. M.J. CA1/3
The parties were married on July 10, 2012 and lived together. They had a child born in 2013. In December 2017, the parties separated. That same month, wife obtained a temporary DVRO against husband and filed a petition for dissolution of the marriage.
On May 29, 2018, the trial court granted wife a one-year DVRO and custody of the child. The court found husband had rebutted the presumption in Family Code section 3044 and allowed him unsupervised visits with the child. Thereafter, on October 25, 2018, the parties reconciled and began living together in the marital residence after entering into a “Spousal Property Agreement” (SPA). As a result of the reconciliation, the trial court issued an order terminating the May 29, 2018 DVRO and the related custody and visitation orders.
Approximately one year later, on November 18, 2019, the trial court issued a temporary DVRO in favor of wife, husband moved out of the marital residence, and the parties again separated.
