    A step in the right direction and the consensus in the senate good but not nearly enough. The language of "the court may do this or that nullifies the point of the amendment rendering it basically useless. A lot more to be done for sure. The 16 point basis of the recommendation for custody/parenting plans should be mandatory and each category should require an explanation or assessment. Great the court has to let you know why they made their recommendation but each criteria needs to be addressed.

    I suppose SB 494 is better than nothing. But I remain agog that this bill does not prevent any of the horrors that were expressed by parents who testified before the Task Force and Judiciary Committee. Even after SB 494, families in difficult situations will continue to be raped financially by unethical court-appointed GALs and other "experts" who are not accountable in any way. That is a shame. Hopefully we will get more meaningful legislation next session to fix the system.
