Bill > S0932

This bill creates a rebuttable presumption against shared parental responsibility and time-sharing with a minor child for parents who have been convicted of or had adjudication withheld for certain offenses, such as domestic violence or specified sexual offenses. The bill requires a specific finding by the court that the parent poses no significant risk of harm to the child and that time-sharing is in the child's best interests in order to rebut the presumption. The bill also provides that access to records and information pertaining to the minor child may not be denied to either parent unless a court order specifically revokes these rights.
