The parent who does not have custody of the children usually gets parenting time. Parenting time is the same as visitation.  \nHow is parenting time set?  \nParenting time is given by the court to the parent who doesn’t have custody (also called“noncustodial parent”) . The idea is to let the child and the parent keep up their relationship. Parenting time must be in the child’s best interest. To set parenting time, the court looks at the child’s age, the child’s safety, and the child’s past relationship with the noncustodial parent.  \nIn general, a noncustodial parent gets a minimum of 25% of the parenting time. This equals about every other weekend and one day a week.  \nOften, the court gives “reasonable parenting time” without getting specific. The parents must then figure out visit times and places. But, if either parent asks, the court sets specific dates and times for parenting time.  \nThe court may give more parenting time to the noncustodial parent to care for the child while the custodial parent works. If you ask for this, the court looks at how well the parents cooperate, how well the parents work together on visiting issues and if there has been family  \nviolence.  \nParenting Plans  \nParents can agree to use a “Parenting Plan.” They work on writing a plan that states the time each parent will spend with the child and how they are going to make decisions about the child. You can make a parenting plan even if you were never married or living together. There is more info on parenting plans below.  \nWhat about limits on parenting time?  \nThe court can limit parenting time for the noncustodial parent to less than 25% if it is likely to harm the child’s physical or emotional health or emotional growth. It can also limit parenting time if the noncustodial parent breaks the court’s order on parenting time without a good reason.  \nThe court can limit parenting by:  \n• Ruling it must be supervised by the other parent, or someone else, like a county welfare department or a relative.  \n• Not allowing overnight visits.  \nThe court can also put conditions on parenting time, like making the noncustodial parent be sober for a certain period before and during parenting time. The court can order drug or alcohol treatment.  \nIf the person who wants parenting time has been convicted of certain crimes like:  \n• murder, manslaughter,  \n• assault,  \n• kidnapping,  \n• depriving someone else of custodial or parental rights,  \n• soliciting, inducing or promoting prostitution involving a minor,  \n• criminal sexual conduct,  \n• incest,  \n• malicious punishment of a child,  \n• neglect.  \nThey have to prove that spending time with the child is in the child’s best interest. This rule applies only to certain degrees of some crimes.  \nWhat is a parenting time expeditor?  \nThe court may ask for a parenting time “expeditor.” This is someone who listens to both sides of a parenting time disagreement and makes a decision. Sometimes the court orders that the decision is “binding”(has to be followed) unless one side goes to court and the court changes it. In other cases, the decision is “non-binding” and does not have to be followed unless the judge orders that it be followed.  \nHow can parenting time be changed?  \nParents can agree to change parenting time. For example, either parent can ask the other parent to skip a visit and make it up another time. If the parents don’t agree, a parent can ask the court to change parenting time if it is best for the child. If the custodial parent states that parenting time puts them or the child in danger, there must be a hearing. The hearing must be as soon as possible.  \nCan the parent with custody deny parenting time?  \nIn general, no. If there is a problem, that parent must get the parenting time order changed. The court will change it if there is a danger to the custo","cbCaijxbQ8okQUah","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijxbQ8okQUah","pdf",665801,"English","# Parenting Time (Visitation)\n## How Parenting Time Is Set\n## Limits and Conditions on Parenting Time\n## Parenting Time Expeditor\n## Changing Parenting Time\n## Denying Parenting Time\n# Enforcement of Parenting Time\n## Custodial Parent Moving Out of State","[{\"question\":\"How does a court decide parenting time for a noncustodial parent?\",\"answer\":\"The court sets parenting time to maintain the child’s relationship with the noncustodial parent and must ensure it is in the child’s best interest.
