Opinion

[¶1] Kim Goldade-Jose, n/k/a Kim Austin, appeals from a district court order denying her request to remove the supervision requirement for her parenting time. She argues the court clearly erred in denying her request because she demonstrated a year of sobriety as required by the amended judgment. The courts decision on parenting time is a finding of fact and will not be reversed unless clearly erroneous. Lerfald v. Lerfald, 2021 ND 150, ¶ 7, 963 N.W.2d 244. “A finding of fact is clearly erroneous if it is induced by an erroneous view of the law, if there is no evidence to support it, or if we are left with a definite and firm conviction a mistake has been made.” Id. [¶2] The district courts denial of Austins parenting time request was not induced by an erroneous view of the law, evidence in the record supports the denial and, after a review of the entire record, we are not left with a definite and firm conviction a mistake has been made. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).

Per Curiam.
