[¶1] Kirby appealed the order of the trial court denying her motion to modify primary residential responsibility of the parties' minor child. Kirby argues she provided sufficient evidence to grant her request to modify primary residential responsibility. We hold the court's determination that Kirby did not establish there had been a significant or material change in circumstances is not clearly erroneous, and we affirm the order under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
