Senate passes House Bill 390 on child custody amendments unanimously
The Utah General Legislative Session on February 24, 2023, focused on two significant bills: House Bill 390 concerning child custody amendments and House Bill 232 related to railroad crossing maintenance.

House Bill 390, presented by Senator Kennedy, mandates that judges must grant parent time if a motion alleges noncompliance with previously established parent time orders. The bill passed with overwhelming support, receiving 26 votes in favor and none against, with three senators absent. It will now be signed by the president and returned to the House for the speaker's signature.

House Bill 232, introduced by Senator Harper, aims to clarify the maintenance responsibilities for railroad grade crossings. The bill transfers the authority to regulate and maintain these crossings from the Public Service Commission (PSC) to the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). It also addresses issues of nonmaintenance by railroads and establishes that any disputes will be resolved by the PSC.

These legislative actions reflect ongoing efforts to refine family law and improve infrastructure management in Utah. The passage of these bills indicates a commitment to addressing both family dynamics and transportation safety within the state.
