MI SB0743

Establishes the Uniform Child Abduction Prevention Act in Michigan, allowing courts to impose measures to prevent wrongful removal or retention of children in custody proceedings.

Courts may issue abduction prevention orders upon finding credible risk of abduction, considering factors such as prior abduction attempts, threats, domestic violence, financial activities suggesting flight, passport applications, and ties to foreign countries.

Abduction prevention orders may include travel restrictions, prohibitions on removing the child from the state or country, passport surrender requirements, supervised visitation, bond requirements, and orders to register with foreign consulates.

Authorizes courts to issue ex parte warrants for law enforcement to take immediate physical custody of a child when there is credible risk of imminent wrongful removal, with respondent afforded hearing by next judicial day.

Provides that orders remain in effect until the time specified in the order, the child turns 18, the child is emancipated, or the order is modified or revoked by a court with jurisdiction.
