The Court of Appeals affirmed the Trial Court’s order on the basis that the Trial Court could not take jurisdiction because the minor child is protected under a no-contact order with Respondent and the minor child is living in a fit home environment with the non-respondent mother, who has been protecting the minor child and meeting her needs.

In this divorce action, the Michigan Court of Appeals ruled the trial court erred in its award of spousal support and attorney fees to the plaintiff ex-wife.
