Establishes "Monica's Law" requiring evidence-based risk assessments in certain domestic violence cases.

This bill (A 336), titled "Monica's Law," requires New Jersey courts to use evidence-based risk assessments in child custody cases where domestic violence is alleged. It mandates a standardized parenting time questionnaire for parents raising safety concerns and an evidence-based guide for judges to evaluate risks like prior violence, substance abuse, or child exposure. Courts must temporarily restrict parenting time while gathering information, then consider safety-focused alternatives like supervised visits or counseling. The law directly affects parents in custody disputes, courts making custody decisions, and children at potential risk from domestic violence.
