HB 1494 - This act establishes the "Uniform Deployed Parents Custody and Visitation Act". This act regulates custody and visitation during the deployment of one custodial parent, including notification to the other parent of the deployment, prohibition for courts considering deployments when determining best interests of a child, temporary custody agreements during a parent's deployment, modifications of custody agreements, and termination of temporary custody agreements under this act. This act is identical to a provision in the truly agreed to and finally passed HCS/SS/SCS/SB 912 (2024), HCS/SS#2/SB 862 (2024), and HB 129 (2023).
