FL H1301

Creates a rebuttable presumption that equal (50/50) time-sharing between parents is in the best interests of minor children, which can be rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence

Removes the requirement to show an "unanticipated" change in circumstances when seeking to modify a parenting plan or time-sharing schedule; now only requires a "substantial and material" change

Allows parents who move within 50 miles of each other (after previously living more than 50 miles apart) to use that relocation as grounds for requesting a time-sharing modification

Requires courts to evaluate all statutory best-interest factors and make specific written findings of fact when creating or modifying time-sharing schedules, unless the parties agree to a schedule
