Application to vary final parenting order within two years — overseas relocation — Care of Children Act 2004, s 139A. The father’s application to vary a final parenting order which allowed the mother and children to relocate overseas was unsuccessful, the threshold in s 139A not having been met. The mother entering into a relationship with another man after the parties’ separation could not be classed as a material change or reason to vary the order. Evidence was that the father knew of the possibility of such a relationship but he continued to negotiate relocation in the hope of reconciliation regardless. Judgment Date: 29 June 2016. * * *Note: names have been changed to comply with legal requirements.* * *
