FL S1650

Prohibits a parent's military activation, deployment, or temporary assignment from being the sole factor in granting or modifying permanent time-sharing and parental responsibility orders.

Allows temporary modification of time-sharing only upon clear and convincing evidence that modification is in the child's best interests, while requiring courts to facilitate contact between the military parent and child through electronic communication and liberal leave time-sharing.

Automatically reinstates the pre-military service time-sharing order within 10 days after the military parent notifies the court of return, unless the non-military parent proves resumption is not in the child's best interest.

Places the burden of proof on the non-military parent to demonstrate that resumption of the original time-sharing order is no longer in the child's best interest.

Effective July 1, 2011.
