New Hampshire HB1770 establishes a presumption of equal parenting time for separated or divorced parents.

New Hampshire HB1770 amends RSA 461-A:2 to establish a constitutional presumption of equal parenting time for separated or divorced parents. This means that unless proven otherwise, both parents are presumed fit and should have equal involvement in their child's life. The court must begin with this presumption in any child-parent relationship suit. Equal parenting time is defined as an allocation of parenting time and overnights on a substantially equal basis.
