Child Custody Bill Expands
Posted on Apr 18, 2011 9:00pm PDT
The Iowa House has reportedly passed a bill that will help divorced soldiers who are on active duty, but share custody of their kids. With the bill, the soldier will reportedly be able to designate a relative to step in and provide day-to-day care of the children during deployment. The matter is relevant for parents who have joint custody of their children. A previous law change allowed soldiers who were away to appoint a relative to take over their visitation rights for the time.
