Is it improper for the court to appoint a parenting co-ordinator with limited responsibility?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from C.D.G. v. D.J.P., 2010 BCSC 1216 (CanLII):

That delegation of the court’s authority was not made in Hunter v. Hunter. In that case, the court raised but did not resolve the question of whether that would be an improper delegation of the court’s authority. Instead, the court appointed a parenting co-ordinator with limited responsibility.
