Ariz. Sup. Ct. Loc. R. (Rule DR-6. Reasonable Parenting Time)
Rule DR-6. Reasonable Parenting Time
A. Pursuant to A.R.S. § 25-401(5), parenting time means the schedule of time during which each parent has access to a child at specific times. “Reasonable Parenting Time” is not defined by statute but is defined herein if used in Mohave County family court orders. B. Where a court order awards “reasonable parenting time” without further orders regarding restrictions or conditions of parenting time, the term “reasonable parenting time” shall refer to the Mohave County Legal Decision Making and Parenting Time Guidelines in effect at the time of the order, and a copy of such must be attached to the order and is included by reference and this Rule. C. Copies of the Mohave County Legal Decision Making and Parenting Time Guidelines may be obtained from the Mohave County Superior Court Clerk's Office, Law Library, or on the court's webpage. D. The Court encourages parents to submit parenting plans specific to their needs, as the reliance on “Reasonable Parenting Time” may not fit all family needs. The State Bar of Arizona and the Arizona Supreme Court provide sample parenting plans which can be obtained from the Supreme Court of Arizona website, the Mohave County Superior Court Law Library, and the Mohave County Office of Conciliation Services.
