Clarification of Visitation Schedules

Yesterday, the Oklahoma Supreme Court issued SCAD-2020-26, which is intended to clarify procedures to follow for couples who have split up and who have a visitation order out of their divorce or paternity case.  Most visitation schedules involve an extended summer visitation whenever the child's school recesses for summer. Probably in anticipation that the Oklahoma State Board of Education will close all schools for the rest of the school year in their special meeting tomorrow, as the State Superintendent is recommending, the Court decided to clarify that this does NOT mean that summer visitation starts now. Instead, any such visitation will be controlled by the "original published school schedule."  The Court also noted, however, that the parties could agree to modify their existing schedule (parties are ALWAYS free to make modifications), but to enforce them there must be something filed with the court issuing the visitation order. The text of the order can be found here.
