In re the Marriage of Cheryle A. Cook, a/k/a Smith, Gladden, and Curtis A. Smith

Summary

The Montana Supreme Court affirmed the Thirteenth Judicial District Court’s order amending the final parenting plan for the parties’ minor children. The court declined to reach the merits because the pro se appellant failed to support her arguments with legal authority and did not establish that the District Court abused its discretion.

Holdings

1. The court did not reach the merits of the alleged abuse of discretion because Cheryle failed to comply with appellate briefing requirements and failed to support her argument with legal authority; the judgment was therefore affirmed.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the District Court abused its discretion by entering findings of fact, conclusions of law, and an order amending the final parenting plan.

Disposition

affirmed
