Introduced by: Jay O'Brien | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Child custody; virtual visitation.  Provides that the courts may order virtual visitation through the use of various electronic communication equipment, if the equipment is reasonably available, although such visitation can only be used to supplement, and not replace, actual visitation. The bill also provides that the amount of virtual visitation ordered is not a factor in determining child support and that the availability of virtual visitation cannot be a factor in determining whether a custodial parent is permitted to relocate with the child.
