Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO THE MODIFICATION OF A BRIDGE ORDER ISSUED PURSUANT TO A PREVIOUS CHILD IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE CASE.

AI Summary

This bill allows a juvenile court to close a child in need of assistance (CINA) case by transferring jurisdiction to the district court through a "bridge modification order" that addresses legal custody, physical care, and parenting time for the child. The criteria for this transfer include the child being safely reunified with a parent, legal paternity being established, and a previous district court order regarding custody and parenting time being in place. The district court would then take judicial notice of the CINA case and any prior related orders, and the case would be subject to confidentiality provisions. The bill also specifies that the district court is not required to appoint counsel for the parties in the transferred case.
