A House-Senate conference committee compromise version, which revises the state grandparent visitation law by requiring a grandparent to show with a "preponderance of the evidence" that grandparenting time is in the child's best interest. This resolves a difference between the House and the Senate, which had preferred a stricter "clear and convincing evidence" standard before a court could overrule the wishes of a parent and issue a grandparenting time order in child custody disputes.
