Relates to orders of protection in child abuse and neglect proceedings in family court

This bill allows family court judges to issue protective orders for children involved in abuse or neglect cases, ensuring these orders expire at the same time as any other court orders issued for the child. It also permits judges to issue separate protective orders against non-parent household members, such as relatives or caregivers, who pose a threat to the child's safety. Under specific circumstances involving serious injury or a history of violence, these separate orders can last up to five years instead of the standard two years, and they are subject to annual review by the court. The law applies to parents, legal guardians, and other responsible adults, giving judges the authority to set behavioral conditions to protect minors from harm within their care.
