Protective Order Amendments

Summary

The bill creates a new procedure for a respondent to tell the court that a petitioner knowingly gave false information to obtain a protective order. It allows the court to impose sanctions, award reasonable attorney fees, and provide make‑up parent‑time when a parent was denied access because of the falsification. It also updates several definitions in Utah's protective‑order statutes.
