How have courts in Trinidad and Tobago dealt with custody and access issues?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Montrichard v. Mangoni, 2010 ONCJ 252 (CanLII):

[41] The respondent submitted that Ontario was not the correct forum in which to resolve the issue of custody and access and argued that custody and access should be decided by the courts in Trinidad and Tobago. As I am satisfied that the applicant has the right to bring her claim for custody in this jurisdiction, the onus shifts to the party challenging the forum to establish that this court is not the “forum conveniens”. See Reynolds v. Cheng, 2005 BCCA 16, 136 A.C.W.S. (3d) 191, [2005] B.C.W.L.D. 1532, [2005] W.D.F.L. 1073, [2005] B.C.J. No. 15, 2005 Cars­well­BC 15 (B.C.C.A.).
