AI Summary

This bill directs the Oregon Judicial Department (OJD) to conduct a study examining ways to simplify child custody court proceedings in the state. Specifically, the bill requires the department to research and develop options for making child custody cases less complex and submit a report with potential legislative recommendations to the interim judiciary committees of the Legislative Assembly by September 15, 2026. The study and its associated provisions will automatically expire (or "sunset") on January 2, 2027, meaning the research effort has a defined timeframe and is not a permanent ongoing requirement. The bill appears to be aimed at improving the efficiency and accessibility of child custody legal processes, though it does not mandate any specific changes to current procedures, only a comprehensive review and potential recommendations for future legislative action.
