OH HB550

Courts must order compensatory parenting time or visitation when a parent or other person files a motion alleging failure to comply with or interference with a parenting time order, if the interference resulted from either an unsubstantiated child abuse/neglect investigation or willful violation of the parenting schedule without justification

Compensatory parenting time must match the same type and duration as the time lost, be scheduled at the discretion of the denied party (including weekends, holidays, school breaks, and summer), and be enforceable the same as the original order

Courts may only deny compensatory parenting time for good cause shown by the opposing party, and must issue written findings of fact and conclusions of law to support any denial

A party cannot receive compensatory parenting time under both the new provision and existing contempt proceedings; if both are pursued, the court may award the greater amount but not both

Amends Ohio Revised Code sections 3109.051, 3109.11, and 3109.12 governing parenting time and visitation rights in divorce, custody, and unmarried parent cases
