<a id="pl.1.13"></a><var>1.13</var>    Subdivision 1. <b>General.</b> (a) In all proceedings for dissolution or legal separation, <br/>
<a id="pl.1.14"></a><var>1.14</var>subsequent to the commencement of the proceeding and continuing thereafter during <br/>
<a id="pl.1.15"></a><var>1.15</var>the minority of the child, the court shall, upon the request of either parent, grant such <br/>
<a id="pl.1.16"></a><var>1.16</var>parenting time on behalf of the child and a parent as will enable the child and the parent to <br/>
<a id="pl.1.17"></a><var>1.17</var>maintain a child to parent relationship that will be in the best interests of the child.<br/>
<a id="pl.1.18"></a><var>1.18</var>    If the court finds, after a hearing, that parenting time with a parent is likely <br/>
<a id="pl.1.19"></a><var>1.19</var>to endanger the child's physical or emotional health or impair the child's emotional <br/>
<a id="pl.1.20"></a><var>1.20</var>development, the court shall restrict parenting time with that parent as to time, place, <br/>
<a id="pl.1.21"></a><var>1.21</var>duration, or supervision and may deny parenting time entirely, as the circumstances <br/>
<a id="pl.1.22"></a><var>1.22</var>warrant. The court shall consider the age of the child and the child's relationship with the <br/>
<a id="pl.1.23"></a><var>1.23</var>parent prior to the commencement of the proceeding.<br/>
<a id="pl.2.1"></a><var>2.1</var>    A parent's failure to pay support because of the parent's inability to do so shall not be <br/>
<a id="pl.2.2"></a><var>2.2</var>sufficient cause for denial of parenting time.<br/>
<a id="pl.2.3"></a><var>2.3</var>    (b) The court may provide that a law enforcement officer or other appropriate person <br/>
<a id="pl.2.4"></a><var>2.4</var>will accompany a party seeking to enforce or comply with parenting time.<br/>
<a id="pl.2.5"></a><var>2.5</var>    (c) Upon request of either party, to the extent practicable an order for parenting <br/>
<a id="pl.2.6"></a><var>2.6</var>time must include a specific schedule for parenting time, including the frequency and <br/>
<a id="pl.2.7"></a><var>2.7</var>duration of visitation and visitation during holidays and vacations, unless parenting time <br/>
<a id="pl.2.8"></a><var>2.8</var>is restricted, denied, or reserved.<br/>
<a id="pl.2.9"></a><var>2.9</var>    (d) The court administrator shall provide a form for a pro se motion regarding <br/>
<a id="pl.2.10"></a><var>2.10</var>parenting time disputes, which includes provisions for indicating the relief requested, an <br/>
<a id="pl.2.11"></a><var>2.11</var>affidavit in which the party may state the facts of the dispute, and a brief description of <br/>
<a id="pl.2.12"></a><var>2.12</var>the parenting time expeditor process under section 
         <statute_ref>518.1751</statute_ref>. The form may not include <br/>
<a id="pl.2.13"></a><var>2.13</var>a request for a change of custody. The court shall provide instructions on serving and <br/>
<a id="pl.2.14"></a><var>2.14</var>filing the motion.<br/>
<a id="pl.2.15"></a><var>2.15</var>    (e) In the absence of other evidence, there is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is <br/>
<a id="pl.2.16"></a><var>2.16</var>entitled to receive at least 25 35 percent of the parenting time for the child. For purposes <br/>
<a id="pl.2.17"></a><var>2.17</var>of this paragraph, the percentage of parenting time may be determined by calculating the <br/>
<a id="pl.2.18"></a><var>2.18</var>number of overnights that a child spends with a parent or by using a method other than <br/>
<a id="pl.2.19"></a><var>2.19</var>overnights if the parent has significant time periods on separate days when the child is in <br/>
<a id="pl.2.20"></a><var>2.20</var>the parent's physical custody but does not stay overnight. The court may consider the age <br/>
<a id="pl.2.21"></a><var>2.21</var>of the child in determining whether a child is with a parent for a significant period of time.<br/>
<br/>
<a id="bill.0.3.0"></a><a id="pl.2.22"></a><var>2.22</var>    Sec. 3. <b>EFFECTIVE DATE; APPLICATION.</b><br/>

<a id="pl.2.26"></a><var>2.26</var>amendment to the parenting time presumption under section 2 until July 1, 2014, unless <br/>
<a id="pl.2.27"></a><var>2.27</var>the child's environment presently endangers the child's physical or emotional health or <br/>
<a id="pl.2.28"></a><var>2.28</var>impairs the child's emotional development.<br/>
