In the case of Yannas v. Frondistou-Yannas, the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts dealt with a divorce proceeding where the primary issue was the custody and potential relocation of the couple’s two minor children. The court had to decide whether the mother, who was awarded physical custody, could move the children from Massachusetts to Greece. The court applied the “real advantage” test, which considers whether the move would benefit the custodial parent and, consequently, the children. The judge found that the move would be advantageous for the mother financially, emotionally, and socially, and that it would strengthen family and cultural ties for the children. The court also ensured that reasonable visitation arrangements with the father would be maintained. Ultimately, the court affirmed the decision to allow the relocation, emphasizing the best interests of the children.
