Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Provides that in a proceeding to establish, modify, or enforce child custody, visitation, or support if the person who is awarded custody, granted visitation, or ordered to pay child support is on active military duty stationed out of State, the court must treat any order establishing, modifying, or enforcing child custody, visitation, or support as a temporary order. Provides that this temporary order does not prejudice the rights of the parties or the child subsequently in the proceeding and terminates when the court enters a subsequent order or judgment, following a hearing held after the person is discharged or is no longer stationed out of State. Provides that a temporary child custody, visitation, or support order entered under these provisions may be incorporated into a final judgment, but only if the court finds that the provision applies and the judgment provides that any child custody, visitation, or support order may be modified without meeting the other applicable requirements in the Act. Provides that "active-duty military member" means a person currently serving on active duty as a member of the Armed Forces of the United States, the Illinois National Guard, or any reserve component of the Armed Forces.
