Overview: Son did not return for visitation with father. Superior court's decision to vacate visitation sanctions owed by mother once father's child support debt was satisfied was legitimate exercise of its inherent power of contempt.

|||||
Overview: Superior court incorporated findings in child in need of aid (CINA) case into its visitation findings in companion divorce case, but those findings did not affect visitation decision. Because there was no live controversy and dismissal of father's appeal did not interfere with his ability to litigate divorce case, CINA appeal was dismissed as moot.

SUPREME COURT OF ALASKA, January 25, 2006, Decided

|||||
Overview: Superior court awarded mother five-eighths of the marital estate. Pursuant to Alaska Stat. § 25.24.160(a)(4), because the evidence supported superior court's findings that father had a higher income potential than mother and was capable of working despite his medical conditions, it was not an abuse of discretion to divide the property unequally.

|||||

Crim. P. 34.

|||||
Overview: Defendant had not shown fair and just reason to withdraw his no contest plea, Alaska R. Crim. P. 11(h)(2), as 1) fact that he had changed his mind was insufficient reason to allow him to withdraw his plea; and 2) there was at least reasonable possibility that he and his former attorney did discuss undecided motion for severance that had been filed.
