IN RE:
HB3121 by Thompson, Senfronia (Relating to the enforcement of orders in a suit affecting the parent-child relationship.), As Engrossed
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Family Code to clarify that temporary orders are enforceable in suits affecting parent-child relationships and specify time requirements for notice regarding motions to enforce certain temporary and final orders, and methods of notice for a motion to enforce a final order.
Based on the analysis of the Office of Court Administration, duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
