Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Grundy County, John J. Sullivan, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Chicchelly and Langholz, JJ. Opinion by Chicchelly, J. (5 pages)
Brittney Arends appeals the order modifying the visitation provisions of the custody decree concerning two children she shares with Kevin Daniels. OPINION HOLDS: The change in Kevin’s work schedule is a material change in circumstances that warrants modifying the decree to allow him midweek and expanded weekend visits, which serves the children’s best interests. Because Brittney failed to show a material change of circumstances that warrants modifying summer visitation, we affirm the denial of her modification request. We decline to award Brittney appellate attorney fees.
