8. JESSIE LUDDY V. LOGAN LUDDY 25FL0275
On March 3, 2026, the parties appeared before the court for hearing on competing requests for a Domestic Violence Restraining Order (DVRO) filed by each party against the other. The parties reached agreements on the terms of the order and were referred to Child Custody Recommending Counseling (CCRC) for custody and visitation orders. A review hearing was set for the present date.
Respondent filed two declarations on March 19, 2026. They were personally served on March 29th.
The parties attended CCRC on April 6, 2026. They were unable to reach any agreements therefore a report with recommendations was prepared on May 21, 2026. It was mailed to the parties on May 22, 2026.
After reviewing the filings as outlined above the court finds the recommendations contained in the May 21, 2026 CCRC report to be in the best interests of the minor and they are hereby adopted as the orders of the court with one modification. The Parenting Time section of the report is amended to state as follows: “Father shall have temporary sole physical custody of the child. Mother shall have professionally supervised visits twice a week for two (2) hours per visit. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties, visits shall be supervised by Family Time Visitation Center, located at 3300 Coach Lane, Suite B-112, Cameron Park, CA 95682.”
Respondent is directed to prepare the Findings and Orders After Hearing (FOAH); however, this order is effective immediately upon the court’s adoption of the tentative ruling and is not conditioned on the preparation of the FOAH.
TENTATIVE RULING #8: THE COURT FINDS THE RECOMMENDATIONS CONTAINED IN THE MAY 21, 2026 CCRC REPORT TO BE IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE MINOR AND THEY ARE HEREBY ADOPTED AS THE ORDERS OF THE COURT WITH ONE MODIFICATION. THE PARENTING TIME SECTION OF THE REPORT IS AMENDED TO STATE AS FOLLOWS: “FATHER SHALL HAVE TEMPORARY SOLE PHYSICAL CUSTODY OF THE CHILD. MOTHER SHALL HAVE PROFESSIONALLY SUPERVISED VISITS TWICE A WEEK FOR TWO (2) HOURS PER VISIT. UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED UPON BY THE PARTIES, VISITS SHALL BE SUPERVISED BY FAMILY TIME VISITATION CENTER, LOCATED AT 3300 COACH LANE, SUITE B-112, CAMERON PARK, CA 95682.”
