Pursuant to the report and its recommendations:
a. Michael Dillwood (Father) is to have up to 2 hours of unsupervised visitation on the weekends. Guardians may agree to additional time depending on the planned activity.
b. Both Father and Guardians must agree upon the date and time of the next upcoming visit by the Wednesday before the visit.
c. No unsupervised visit will take place at Father’s home. All unsupervised visits will occur in the community (e.g. a public park, movie theatre, sports facility, restaurant, etc.).
d. Sophie Scharfe is prohibited to attend or participate in the unsupervised visits. This restriction does not exclude her from attendance at non-unsupervised visitation functions she is invited to by Guardians.

At the pick-up, Father will not enter or approach Guardian’s residence. Instead, Father will notify Guardian he is present and ready to begin the visit by sending aa text message.
f. Father will continue to go to games and the online gaming will be the same.
Any and all other prior orders not in conflict with the orders above remain in effect, to include the terms set forth in the Stipulation and Order filed October 28, 2025.
The matter is CONTINUED four (4) months to September 1, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. in Department 5 for further review.
