In re the Domestic Partnership of von Dorrer-Hilde
Appellant Christina von Dorrer-Hildebrand (Christina) and respondent Ellen M. Veccia (Ellen) share joint legal and physical custody of two children through a stipulated judgment. Christina appeals the trial court’s order giving Ellen final decision-making authority over whether to vaccinate either or both children. (Order)
On appeal, Christina contends the trial court erred by modifying legal custody without requiring Ellen to show a significant change in circumstances before granting her request. She further argues Ellen failed to show the modification was in the children’s best interests. Finally, she claims the trial court erroneously denied her request for a long-cause hearing to present expert medical testimony on the issue of whether immunization was appropriate for the children. For the reasons set forth below, we conclude Christina has not established prejudicial error occurred. We therefore affirm the Order.
