[EDITOR'S NOTE: This case is unpublished as indicated by the issuing court.] MEMORANDUM OF DECISION The parties were at issue and were both fully heard during the course of a one day trial. The court finds that residence requirements have been satisfied and neither party has been the recipient of public assistance. All pertinent criteria outlined in Chapter 815j of the General Statutes were considered by the court in the entry of the following orders.
ORDERS
DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE
The marriage is dissolved on the grounds of an irretrievable breakdown. CT Page 14743
CUSTODY AND VISITATION
The parties are awarded joint legal custody of the minor child Patrick with physical custody to the Husband, subject to open, reasonable and flexible rights of visitation to the Wife, always subject to the child's schedule and activities.
CHILD SUPPORT
No child support is ordered, which is a deviation from the $90 per week presumptive amount calculated by the court, as it was fully considered by court in the division of assets and income. The deviation is warranted because of the coordination of total support and other equitable factors.

MEDICAL INSURANCE
The Husband shall continue to maintain the medical insurance coverage he has in force covering the minor child. Un-reimbursed medical and dental expenses incurred by the minor child shall be equally shared by the parties.
