Law360 Canada ( January 21, 2026, 9:40 AM EST) -- Appeal by Samantha Herath from two orders of a chambers judge in a family law matter. Herath and MacKay consented to a final order addressing divorce, shared parenting of their two children, child and spousal support, s. 7 expenses, and division of family property. They later brought cross-applications to vary the final order. The judge varied it by directing that they share parenting coordinator costs equally (May 16, 2023, order). Both parties then applied for further orders concerning child support and payment of parenting coordinator costs. The judge granted MacKay’s application to vary child support retroactively, finding he overpaid and ordered Herath to repay the overpayment. The judge also dismissed most of Herath’s applications, including her request to vary the order concerning parenting coordinator costs. The judge found that, at a judicial case conference (JCC), the parties agreed to vary the May 2023 order so that Herath became solely responsible for these costs. Herath argued that the judge erred by retroactively varying child support based on an incorrect assessment of “effective notice” and by misapprehending evidence, by failing to add back MacKay’s business expenses to his Guidelines income, and by concluding the parties agreed at the JCC to vary the May 16, 2023, order to make her solely responsible for payment of all parenting coordination costs....
