Bill overview
Senate Bill 1139 aimed to regulate the use of therapeutic interventions and expert testimony in Arizona family court proceedings. It would have restricted courts from ordering or requiring parents to pay for therapeutic services without both parents’ consent and established specific qualifications for experts providing testimony related to child development, mental health, or substance abuse. The bill sought to ensure expert opinions were based on established clinical standards and parental input.
