This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

H and W were married in 1989. They separated less than three months later and then permanently separated in 1992. They had a 2.5-year-old son. The court found that shared parental rights were called for but that their inability to separate themselves from their marital conflicts compelled the court to establish a detailed plan for parental contact and to allocate certain functions between the parents. The primary residence was to change every four weeks, and W got parental rights over religious upbringing and H got parental rights over education. The Superior court reviewed the order and found it not clearly erroneous or an abuse of discretion. This appeal resulted.
