How Are Family Law Cases Involving Service members Different From Others?
by Binoyejos Jos Orange Child Custody Lawyers | Family Law – JosFamThe Service members Civil Relief Act (SCR Act)
was created in response to a troubling trend in which military forces' custody
arrangements were modified after or before deployment, resulting in parental
time loss. The major objective of the SCR Act is to guarantee that any changes in
custody caused by deployment are just temporary & may be reversed once the
parent service member returns from their tour of duty.
The context of the legislation requires that
custody be restored to the original order solely if it is in the best benefit
of the child/children, which is the guiding principle for all custody judgments
in the U.S. The new trend also specifies that a judge may not consider a
parent's deployment or the possibility of deployment when issuing a custody
order.
State Laws Protecting Deployed Service
Members:- Utah already has passed a similar law, HB401, which prevents a
custodial parent from permanently losing custody as a result of their
deployment. It also allows a noncustodial parent with visitation to delegate
their visitation time to a close family member. California provides for the
deployed service member's parenting time to be allocated to other family
members.
It also states that custody will revert to the
original order when a soldier returns from deployment. In total, thirty-six
states have passed legislation protecting soldier's parenting rights, and three
states have legislation pending. The Service members Civil Relief Act(SCR Act)
is intended to unify the existing state laws and provide relief and protection
for soldiers living in states that have no such legislation.
