Holmes-Moorhouse v London Borough of Richmond upon Thames [2009] UKHL 7; [2009] WLR (D) 31

“When a court in family proceedings made a shared residence order providing for children to spend alternate weeks with each of their parents, and the father was homeless, a housing authority was not obliged, on account of the order, to regard the father as a person in priority need of accommodation on the ground that dependent children might reasonably expected to reside with him.”
