Bill would require transfer of protective orders to align custody/divorce rulings; family-law groups support measure
Summary
A bill presented for Senator Zaffirini would require protective orders to be transferred to the court handling a related custody or divorce case, enabling the later court to align protective-order terms with its custody and property rulings.
Senate Bill (file number discussed in committee as 15509/1559) presented by Senator Creighton on behalf of Senator Zaffirini would require a protective-order issuing court to transfer the protective order to a court handling a later divorce or suit affecting the parent-child relationship so the receiving court can align protective-order terms with its custody and property rulings.
