Butler v. Butler

Missouri Court of Appeals

1Opinion of the Court

KAROHL, Judge.

Edwin V. Butler, (Father), appeals from order granting Katherine H. Butler, n/k/a Katherine H. Collier, (Mother), permission to remove their son from the state. He argues: 1) the court’s order was not supported by the evidence and thus, a finding on the best interest of the child could not be made; 2) the court had no subject matter jurisdiction because custody was not before the court; and, 3) the court erred in modifying custody provisions as it had no evidence before it to support any change nor how such a change would serve the best interests of the child. We affirm.
