TO: | Honorable Harold V. Dutton, Jr., Chair, House Committee on Juvenile Justice & Family Issues |
FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB2099 by Dutton (Relating to the determination of the conservatorship of, and the right of possession of or access to, a child by a person who has a history of family violence.), Committee Report 1st House, As Amended |
In proceedings related to the appointment of a conservator for a child, the bill would require a court to consider whether a protective order was rendered against the parent during the previous two years in determining if that parent has a history or pattern of certain violent or neglectful behavior. The Department of Protective and Regulatory Services indicates that passage of the bill would not have a fiscal impact to the state.
