Why the model tagged it this way: The bill makes multiple changes to family law procedures for time-sharing, parenting plans, and paternity judgments that affect custody and parenting time disputes between parents. It expands the less-custodial parent's rights by expediting enforcement hearings, removing maternal presumptions of sole responsibility, requiring both parents to submit plans, and mandating parenting plan issuance upon motion. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
