Using Jurisdictional Statutes to Assist Domestic Violence Survivors: Beyond the Basics This training will build upon the foundation established by the LRC’s previous training programs, which provided participants with an overview of the various federal and state laws that govern interstate custody cases. The training is appropriate for attorneys who have participated in a previous LRC training or who have some experience with interstate custody cases. Training topics are selected based upon participants’ questions from previous trainings and technical assistance requests. Among other topics, the training will address the following: strategies for advising clients who are contemplating leaving a jurisdiction with their children; the relationship between civil protection orders that include custody provisions and custody orders that have been issued as part of a custody or divorce case; recent and emerging trends in practice and case law; and the basis for continuing exclusive jurisdiction in a custody case under federal or state law. Participants will have an opportunity to ask questions during the presentation.
Emerging Interstate Issues in Domestic Violence Custody Cases This training will focus on emerging interstate issues identified by those who work with domestic violence survivors. The training will be especially appropriate for victim advocates.
** Please Note: Registration forms will be made available approximately two weeks before the scheduled training.
