1Opinion of the Court
CADY, Justice.
The issue in this case is whether a custodial parent can modify a grandparent visitation order on the ground that the applicable provision of the grandparent visitation statute, upon which the order was based, was subsequently found unconstitutional. The district court determined the visitation order was subject to modification, and it terminated the visitation. We agree and affirm the judgment of the district court.
