Indiana Court of Appeals
In re the Paternity of W.R.H. Casie N. Wheeler v. William Jesse Hinshaw
18A-JP-1770
Juvenile paternity. Reverses modification of custody ordered by Hamilton Superior Court, awarding sole legal custody of W.R.H. to William Jesse Hinshaw. Majority holds that because Indiana Code section 31-17-2.2-1 does not place legal custody at issue any time there is a hearing regarding a proposed relocation, legal custody was not at issue at the hearing, and the trial court erred by ordering the modification. Judge Terry Crone dissents with separate opinion and would affirm the trial court’s award of sole legal custody to father.
