If there has been a history of domestic violence, the court may not refer the parties to parenting coordination unless both parents consent.
The court shall offer each party an opportunity to consult with an attorney or domestic violence advocate before accepting the party’s consent.
The court must determine whether each party’s consent has been given freely and voluntarily.
In cases involving a history of domestic violence, it’s crucial for the court to prioritize safety and well-being.
Therefore, the court ensures that both parties have the opportunity to seek guidance from an attorney or domestic violence advocate before proceeding with parenting coordination.
