Legislative bill overview

SB 1364 is a California bill introduced by Senator Caroline Menjivar that addresses child custody matters. The bill was recently introduced and is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having just been sent to print and awaiting committee assignment.

Changes to custody standards can influence how courts balance parental involvement, child preferences, and safety considerations in disputed cases.

  • Parental rights perspectives: Custody reforms often divide advocates who prioritize shared parenting versus those emphasizing primary caregiver stability
  • Implementation challenges: Changes to custody law may create different standards across counties or require judicial training on new procedures
