Changes In The Law That Affect Our Children: Part Ii By Donald P. Schweitzer Copyright 2006 Law Offices of Donald P. Schweitzer
Laws in California are ever-changing. It is important that citizens remain informed about these changes. This article focuses on changes in the law that affect our children.
Contributing to Underage Drinking
California is clamping down on those who provide alcohol for minors. Per B&P C 25658, it is now a misdemeanor to buy alcohol for anyone who gives alcohol to a minor (the code previously made it illegal to purchase alcohol for a minor).
Setting Aside Judgments
Many of us who practice family law believed for some time that the limits placed on a person’s right to challenge were unfair. Fortunately, recent legislation has modified the procedure in which parents may challenge judgments. Family Code Sections 7645-7649.5 assert that the legal father, the mother, the child, or their legal representatives may file a motion to set aside or vacate a judgment within two years after (1) the man learned or should have learned about the proceedings or the judgment, whichever occurred first; (2) the child was born, if parentage was determined by a voluntary declaration; or (3) the new section’s effective date (January 1, 2005), if a default judgment had already established before that date.
Confidentiality of Custody Evaluations
It is well-known that many embarrassing facts or opinions about a parent go into the child custody evaluator’s report, which is kept within the court file. These reports were previously available to the public, which caused a great deal of anxiety for many parents. The law regarding the public-nature of these reports has been changed. The new law provides that
in custody proceedings, reports submitted to the court that contain custody recommendations or psychological evaluations of a child must be considered strictly confidential and may not be disclosed to anyone except the parties and their attorneys, the child’s appointed counsel, judicial or law enforcement officers, local family court facilitators (or their employees or agents), court employees, or anyone else who the court has ordered may see the material (good cause).
Inheritance Rights of Posthumously Artificially Conceived Children
After a person dies, the inheritance rights of any frozen egg or sperm deposits made by the decedent must be considered. The Probate code now has a law that spells out the inheritance rights of a child who was artificially conceived after a parent’s death with sperm or an egg deposited for that purpose.
