HB 2308 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Establishes provisions relating to the ordering of additional parenting time when court-ordered parenting time has been denied

HB 2308 requires courts to order additional parenting time when a parent's court-ordered time is denied due to certain investigations (like child welfare agency reviews) or protective orders that didn't find abuse/neglect. The additional time must match the denied time's type and duration (e.g., weekends, holidays) and be completed within two years. The parent denied time selects the schedule, subject to the child's best interests. The bill explicitly states it does not create lawsuits against agencies or waive government immunity. This affects parents and courts in family law cases involving denied parenting time.
