Lovlace et al. v. Copley et al.

by
The issue before the Supreme Court in this case involved grandparents' visitation rights and the applicable burden of proof and standards trial court should apply when grandparents and parents seek to modify and terminate, respectively, court-ordered grandparent visitation. The Court held that the burden of proof is upon the grandparent or parent seeking the modification or termination to demonstrate, by a preponderance, that both a material change in circumstances has occurred and that change is in the child's best interests.
