The Children's Issues Bill (CS/CS/CS/SB 904) was sent to Governor Crist on Wednesday, June 3, 2009. It is now awaiting the Governor's signature. Some of the highlights of this bill include:
* The bill recognizes and authorizes the parenting coordination process and provides long-overdue qualifications for those serving as parenting coordinators and standards and safeguards for the process itself.
* The bill corrects a mistaken interpretation of last year's parenting bill that modification actions no longer required a showing of a substantial, material and unanticipated change in circumstances.
* The bill provides needed clarification that there is no presumption for or against any particular time-sharing schedule.
* The bill clarifies and streamlines the process to be followed when a parent seeks to relocate his or her residence.
