HB1239

Louisiana HB1239 mandates equal physical custody of children unless the court finds it not feasible or in the child's best interest.

Louisiana HB1239 amends the state's child custody laws to require equal physical custody of children unless the court determines it is not feasible or in the best interest of the child. This change modifies existing law, which previously suggested equal custody should be shared to the extent it was feasible and in the child's best interest. The bill affects parents and courts involved in custody decisions, emphasizing the importance of equal custody unless specific circumstances warrant otherwise.
