AI Summary

This bill directs the Oregon Judicial Department (OJD) to conduct a comprehensive study on ways to simplify child custody court proceedings in the state. Specifically, the OJD is required to analyze current child custody processes and develop potential improvements, with the goal of making these legal proceedings more straightforward and efficient. The department must prepare a detailed report, which may include legislative recommendations, to be submitted to the interim legislative committees focused on judiciary matters by September 15, 2026. The study and reporting requirement will automatically expire on January 2, 2027, meaning the OJD will have a limited timeframe to complete this research project. By mandating this study, the bill aims to identify potential reforms that could make child custody cases less complex and potentially less stressful for the families involved.
