Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Jackson County, Henry W. Latham II, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Potterfield, P.J., and Doyle and May, JJ. Opinion by Potterfield, P.J. (3 pages)
Amy Ruchotzke appeals from the provision of the district court’s order for custody, child support, and visitation giving Shawn Gerardy physical care of the parties’ minor child, T.G. Amy contends she should be given physical care of T.G., as she is better equipped to meet his needs. Her appeal is based on the claim the district court got the facts wrong. OPINION HOLDS: While our review is de novo, we agree with the district court’s recitation of pertinent facts and the determination that placing T.G. is Shawn’s physical care is in T.G.’s best interests. We affirm.
