CLAY v. BURCKLE

No. 4138.

369 S.C. 651 (2006)

633 S.E.2d 173

Judith Ann Burckle CLAY, Appellant, v. Daryl James BURCKLE, Respondent.

Court of Appeals of South Carolina.

Decided July 17, 2006.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John L. Creson, of Augusta, for Appellant.

Paul Andrew Anderson, of Aiken, for Respondent.


STILWELL, J.:

Judith Burckle Clay (Mother) appeals the family court's order naming Daryl Burckle (Father) primary residential parent of their son. Mother argues South Carolina lacked jurisdiction over the matter because Florida still had exclusive jurisdiction under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act (UCCJA) and the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA). We agree and vacate the order of the family court.1
