Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill would change how courts handle evidence in cases about child custody and parenting time. It states that courts cannot automatically reject evidence just because of its format or if it's hearsay, as long as the evidence relates to a child's safety, well-being, or wishes, or a parent's behavior, and is offered in good faith. The bill also requires courts to admit a parent's criminal record as evidence and mandates that if a court unfairly limits one parent's evidence, it can be grounds for appeal.
