RS 359.6 - Delegation of visitation

The court may delegate some or all of the deploying parent's visitation, upon motion of the deploying parent, to a family member with a substantial relationship to the child if the court determines it is in the best interest of the child. For the purposes of this Section, the court shall consider Civil Code Article 136 in determining the best interest of the child. Delegated visitation shall not create standing to assert separate visitation rights. Delegated visitation shall terminate by operation of law in accordance with the provisions of R.S. 9:359.5 or upon a showing that the delegated visitation is no longer in the best interest of the child.

Acts 2010, No. 739, §1.
