What is the range of relief sought by the respondent in her application for variation of child support?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Ferris v Longhurst, 2014 SKQB 294 (CanLII):

The claims for relief are contained in both the original application for variation and the supplementary affidavit of the respondent sworn after the mediation was completed. It appears from the material the respondent seeks the following relief: a. To have the overall parenting time of each of the parties set by the court. This claim for relief has been resolved by the parties according to their present circumstances; b. To determine the amount of child support retroactively and expunging any arrears payable by the respondent; c. If necessary ordering that there is undue hardship with respect to payments by the respondent on the basis of his additional costs of access. This claim for relief was abandoned by the respondent at the hearing in front of Smith J.; d. To determine that each of the parties is entitled to two weeks of vacation with their daughter. This is contained in the supplementary affidavit; e. To determine the respondent is allowed to take their daughter out of school for purposes of these holidays and to home school her during these periods. This is contained in the supplementary affidavit; f. To determine the respondent’s parents are entitled to have the child while the respondent is away on vacation or otherwise. This is contained in the supplementary affidavit; g. To order that the parties are entitled to additional time (three hours) for the non-parenting party on Christmas and their daughter’s birthday. This is contained in the supplementary affidavit; f. To determine that each party is entitled to put the child in an activity or two each year. There was a suggestion there should also be an order limiting the petitioner in the number of activities she could put the child in each year. These claims are in the supplementary affidavit; g. A Contino (Contino v. Leonelli-Contino, 2005 SCC 63, [2005] 3 S.C.R. 217) order recognizing the respondent’s additional travel costs to drive the child to and from school during his parenting days. This claim was in the supplementary affidavit; h. A revision of the existing support order to at least June 2013 providing retroactive reimbursement for the amounts paid by the respondent. This claim was in the supplementary affidavit.
