Idaho H0524 amends child custody interference law with penalties and remedies for violations.
Idaho H0524 amends existing law to strengthen penalties and remedies for child custody interference. The bill establishes a graduated penalty structure, with fines and potential imprisonment increasing with each offense. It also mandates that law enforcement officers respond to reports of custody interference within four hours, verifying the child's location and safety. Courts may order additional custody periods to compensate for denied visitation, and the bill clarifies that these provisions do not modify existing custody orders.
