Hardin v. Hardin

Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Peterson, Judge.

Douglas Andrew Hardin (the “father”) appeals the trial court’s order permitting Rita Hardin a/k/a Rita Barbagallo (the “mother”) to resume visitation with her youngest son in the form of weekly therapeutic sessions. He argues the trial court erred by entering a self-executing change of visitation, by failing to include a parenting plan with the order, and by failing to consider the best interests of the child. Because we find the court’s order to be a self-executing change of visitation of the sort prohibited under Georgia law, we vacate the order.
