OPINION
ANDERSON, RUSSELL A., Chief Justice.
Appellant Christopher Ross, the father of two minor children currently ages 11 and 3, sought dismissal of a petition by respondent Gail Lewis-Miller, the children’s maternal aunt, for custody of the children under Minn.Stat. § 257C.03 (2004). The district court dismissed the petition without an evidentiary hearing. The court of appeals reversed and remanded for an evidentiary hearing. Concluding that the petition for third-party custody was valid and that the allegations, if true, would satisfy the requisite statutory criteria, we affirm.
