Summary

This bill allows parents to recover custody time they lost while being investigated for child abuse or neglect if those claims are later found to be false. It affects parents involved in custody disputes who are temporarily separated from their children due to investigations. This matters because it prevents parents from being unfairly penalized with lost time with their children over unfounded accusations.
