Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Pottawattamie County, Craig M. Dreismeier, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Greer, P.J., and Schumacher and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Greer, P.J. (11 pages)
Kwot Gilo appeals the dissolution degree awarding physical care of a minor son to Ariat Louch. OPINION HOLDS: In spite of her lower level of English skills, Ariat’s history as the child’s caretaker as well as his best interests and Kwot’s history of domestic abuse support her retaining physical care of the child, and we affirm.
