abolishing the family division, creating the office of family mediation, and reassigning the jurisdiction of the family division.

HB 652 proposes to reorganize family court structure by abolishing the current "family division" and establishing a new "Office of Family Mediation." The bill would transfer jurisdiction over family-related cases (like custody and divorce) from the family division to this new mediation office and other designated courts. This change would directly affect family court proceedings, judges, and individuals involved in family law matters by altering how cases are processed and resolved. The bill is currently stalled in committee with a "Inexpedient to Legislate" recommendation.
