The Supreme Court of Finland refused leave to appeal the Court of Appeal's ruling regarding a change in child custody. The appellant argued that the lower court failed to properly weigh the child's best interests, while the respondent maintained the original custody order remained appropriate. The court determined that the lower court's decision did not warrant further review and thus denied the procedural request for leave to appeal.
