The hearing for Bill & Ivy Walker’s custody dispute with Ivy’s parents over Peter was held on 2009-06-15 at 15:00 in Plymouth Family Division court. After over an hour of closed-door testimony, while half a dozen supporters waited outside, Ivy’s parents was ordered to return Peter the next day.

The judge said in part, “In New Hampshire, parents have a right to raise their children any way they see fit,” and, “Money doesn’t make you a good parent. Sometimes rich folks are good parents, sometimes poor folk folks are good parents. In fact, usually poor folks make better parents.”

Sometime around 02:30 on 2009-06-16, Ivy’s mother brought Peter home to New Hampshire.
