The case of Joseph D. Miller v. Amanda Lee Mathias addresses the procedural and jurisdictional issues surrounding a child custody dispute. The Maryland Court of Appeals reviewed whether the Circuit Court erred in granting a motion to alter or amend a judgment without a hearing and before the appellant had an opportunity to respond, as well as the application of the 'inconvenient forum' provisions under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA). The court affirmed that while Maryland had continuing, exclusive jurisdiction, it was not precluded from conducting an inconvenient forum analysis. Ultimately, the court found that relinquishing jurisdiction to Virginia was appropriate due to factors favoring convenience for witnesses and evidence related to the custody matter.
