In re the Marriage of Watson
Court of Appeals of Washington
1Opinion of the CourtHoughton, J.
¶1 — Christopher Watson appeals from court orders entered in an action to modify a parenting plan based on allegations of sexual abuse. Following a full evidentiary hearing, the court denied the modification petition but ordered an amended temporary parenting plan restricting his residential time to two hours of supervised visitation every other week. We hold that the trial court exceeded its authority and abused its discretion in limiting visitation after finding that the sexual abuse allegations were unproved. We reverse and remand for reinstatement of the original parenting plan.
