Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a disclosure requirement in the domestic relations law that gives the non-custodial (less-custodial) parent more information about potential risks in the custodial household, which expands their rights to seek custody or parenting time adjustments; this also touches domestic-violence-custody because sex offender status relates to safety findings that can affect custody decisions.
