In a recent court session, significant discussions centered around a petition to modify a parenting plan filed by Sarah Baker, citing concerns for her daughter Karma's safety. The court heard testimony regarding repeated violations of the existing parenting plan by the father, Mister Romke, who allegedly placed Karma in unsafe situations by allowing her to be around a child involved in a sexual abuse investigation.

Miss Baker expressed her concerns, stating that Mister Romke had not adhered to the court's orders, which specifically prohibited Karma from being in the presence of that child. She reported that this disregard for the plan had caused her significant anxiety regarding her daughter's safety. Karma, now 14, confirmed her discomfort with the visitation arrangements, stating she felt unsafe with her father.

The court proceedings revealed that Mister Romke had sporadically exercised his visitation rights, which were scheduled from Friday to Sunday, but often returned Karma early. In light of these issues, Miss Baker requested a new parenting plan that would allow her daughter to reside with her full-time, with visitation at Karma's discretion. She also proposed that both parents undergo therapy, alongside the child involved in the previous investigation.

The court ultimately granted the amended petition for modification, ordering that Mister Romke's visitation be contingent upon Karma's comfort level. The judge noted that Mister Romke had failed to comply with discovery requests, leading to a default judgment against him. The court emphasized the importance of ensuring a safe environment for Karma, reflecting the serious nature of the allegations and the need for protective measures in the parenting arrangement.
