Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Marshall County, John R. Flynn, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Ahlers, P.J., and Chicchelly and Buller, JJ. Opinion by Ahlers, P.J. (10 pages)
A father appeals the district court’s denial of his petition to modify his dissolution decree, arguing he should be given physical care and sole legal custody of the parties’ children. The father also requests appellate attorney fees. OPINION HOLDS: Because the father failed to prove he could provide superior care to the children and modifying physical care and legal custody is not in the children’s best interests, we affirm. We reject the father’s request for appellate attorney fees.
