Title
Juvenile Law: Court Orders (Action Required)
body
Summary
The Family and Juvenile Law Advisory Committee recommends that rule 5.504 of the California Rules of Court be amended to grant courts an extra two years to produce modified versions of mandatory juvenile forms for court orders. This change will help reduce the financial burden associated with changes to mandatory forms and ensure that courts continue to have the flexibility in the production of forms to meet local needs.
Recommendation
The Family and Juvenile Law Advisory Committee recommends that the Judicial Council, effective January 1, 2017, amend subdivision (c)(2) of rule 5.504 of the California Rules of Court to extend to January 1, 2019 the date by which courts are required to implement mandatory Judicial Council juvenile forms.
