Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction & Enforcement Act

Traverse City, Michigan Family Lawyer Jeanne Hannah

As of August 3, 2008, all but two states have enacted the UCCJEA, replacing the former Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act. Only Massachusetts and New Hampshire remain. Both states had bills introduced in their legislatures in 2008 for enactment.

Jeanne M. Hannah spoke about The Temporary Emergency Jurisdiction Provisions of the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act at the Family Law Section's Summer Institute at Boyne Mountain in July 2006.

You can view a PowerPoint slideshow of her talk here.

In November 2008, Jeanne Hannah spoke in the judicial track on the topic of the UCCJEA. Making Sense of the UCCJEA

An excellent document explaining the UCCJEA from the US Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention may be used effectively with out-of-state courts, prosecuting attorneys, and law enforcement agencies to help them understand their obligation to give full faith and credit to Michigan Orders.

Jeanne Hannah is experienced in parental kidnapping cases, handling seven such cases between January 2008 and January 2009. You may view her parental kidnapping web site here.
