## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Family Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the orders the lawyer loads, copy into a sheet the days, times, exchange places, and holiday blocks as printed, each with the order date and page. Add no new term. |
| What the lawyer must review | Family Code § 3020 makes the child's health, safety and welfare the court's primary concern. Section 3044 creates a rebuttable presumption, after a finding that a party seeking custody perpetrated domestic violence within the previous five years against the other party, the child, the child's siblings, or a person described in § 3011(a)(2)(A), that sole or joint physical or legal custody to that party is detrimental to the best interest of the child. The presumption is rebutted only by a preponderance of the evidence. You check every line against the order. The sheet does not vary the order. Open § 3011 before you apply the cross-reference in § 3044. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: From the orders the lawyer loads, copy into a sheet the days, times, exchange places, and holiday blocks as printed, each with the order date and page. Add no new term.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- A practical sheet is not a new order. A change of days is a modification you draft and the court makes.
- Section 3044 is California. Another state's custody presumption is a different statute.
- Section 3044 also says the court shall give the parties a copy of the section before custody mediation. That is the court's step.
