Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

George L. Derr, Eugene, argued the cause and filed the brief for respondent Linda Santineau.

No appearance for respondent Christina J. Dennis.

Before EDMONDS, Presiding Judge, and WOLLHEIM and SCHUMAN, Judges.


WOLLHEIM, J.

Father appeals from a judgment that awards custody of his two children to their maternal grandmother and grants him parenting time.1 We review the facts de novo, ORS 19.415(3).2 Because we conclude that grandmother did not rebut the statutory presumption that father acts in the best interests of his children, we reverse and remand.

Mother and father married in the late 1990s.
