Bill overview
This bill amends Arizona statutes related to legal decision-making and parenting time, primarily focusing on expanding access to a jury trial in these cases for parents who have been denied significant parenting time or joint legal decision-making. It also includes provisions for expedited hearings when a parent is charged with a crime against a child and updates rules regarding temporary orders and modifications, particularly for military families. The bill aims to ensure decisions regarding children's well-being are made with careful consideration of all relevant factors and the child's wishes.
