New York S09354 amends the family court act to protect minors in orders of protection.
New York S09354 amends the family court act to ensure that courts cannot issue orders of protection that would leave a minor respondent without an appropriate alternative residence. The bill prohibits courts from directing a minor to stay away from the home of a parent or other legally responsible person if it would leave the minor without a suitable place to live. It also provides that such a minor respondent has the right to have a guardian ad litem appointed, if appropriate.
