What is the test for having access to a child by a parent who is serving a life sentence for murder?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Klinger v Klinger, 2013 SKQB 59 (CanLII):

The key case appears to be Anderson v. Daley, 2006 SKQB 309, [2006] S.J. No. 447 (QL). There, the parties had two children. The father received a life sentence as a result of murdering the mother. Not surprisingly, the children’s paternal and maternal families had a highly hostile relationship. A maternal aunt received custody through a court order. The father sought access, and this court ordered that some telephone and personal visits occur.
