Description:
Aron and Kelsey Mentz were married in 2016 and have one minor child together-V.M., born in 2018. Aron petitioned to dissolve the marriage in November 2021. As the case progressed, Aron failed to respond to Kelsey's discovery requests or the district court's orders requiring him to do so. So, at the start of the dissolution trial, the court prohibited Aron from objecting to or presenting evidence against Kelsey's requested relief. The court then placed the child in Kelsey's physical care-before hearing any evidence from either party- ruling: "These are sanctions that I am imposing for the noncompliance since this matter started in 2021."...
