SB285: Bill Text

Note: There is no conflict of substance. As merged by the legislative reference bureau, s. 45.40 (3m) reads:

(3m) Rules. The department shall promulgate rules establishing eligibility criteria and household income limits for payments under subs. (1m), (2), and (2m). The department may not include in the rules establishing eligibility criteria and household income limits any consideration of the first $50,000 of cash surrender value of any life insurance that is available to the veteran's household.

SB285, s. 12 Section 12. 48.299 (9) of the statutes, as created by 2009 Wisconsin Act 94, is amended to read:

SB285,5,12 48.299 (9) If at any point in the proceeding the court determines or has reason to know that the child is an Indian child, the court shall provide notice of the proceeding to the child's parent, Indian custodian, and tribe in the manner specified in s. 48.028 (4) (a). The next hearing in the proceeding may not be held until at least 10 days after receipt of the notice by the parent, Indian custodian, and tribe or, if the identity or location of the parent, Indian custodian, expectant mother, or tribe cannot be determined, until at least 15 days after receipt of the notice by the U.S. secretary of the interior. On request of the parent, Indian custodian, or tribe, the court shall grant a continuance of up to 20 additional days to enable the requester to prepare for that hearing.

Note: Provides for parallel construction within the affected sentence, which contains no antecedent for "the ... expectant mother." Removal of the term makes the provision consistent with the notice provisions of s. 48.028 (4) (a) and makes the affected sentence congruent with those contained in ss. 48.42 (2g) (ag), 48.357 (2m) (br), and 48.357 (1) (c) 2r., as created by 2009 Wis. Act 94. Drafting records for Act 94 show that references to "expectant mothers" were included in drafts of Act 94 but removed prior to the final version.

Note: 2009 Wis. Act 185 deleted a comma where the underscored comma is inserted, but its reinsertion was made necessary by the treatment by 2009 Wis. Act 79. Act 79 inserted the stricken comma, but it was rendered unnecessary by the treatment by Act 185.

SB285, s. 14 Section 14. 48.33 (4) (c) of the statutes, as affected by 2009 Wisconsin Acts 79 and 185, is amended to read:

SB285, s. 16 Section 16. 48.355 (2) (b) 6. of the statutes, as affected by 2009 Wisconsin Acts 79 and 185, is amended to read:

SB285,7,20 48.355 (2) (b) 6.

SB285, s. 19 Section 19. The treatment of 48.365 (2m) (ag) of the statutes by 2009 Wisconsin Act 79, section 48, is not repealed by 2009 Wisconsin Act 94, section 110. Both treatments stand.

Note: There is no conflict of substance. As merged by the legislative reference bureau, s. 48.365 (2m) (ag) reads:

(ag) The court shall give a foster parent, treatment foster parent, or other physical custodian described in s. 48.62 (2) who is notified of a hearing under sub. (2) a right to be heard at the hearing by permitting the foster parent, treatment foster parent, or other physical custodian to make a written or oral statement during the hearing, or to submit a written statement prior to the hearing, relevant to the issue of extension. A foster parent, treatment foster parent, or other physical custodian who receives notice of a hearing under sub. (2) and a right to be heard under this paragraph does not become a party to the proceeding on which the hearing is held solely on the basis of receiving that notice and having the right to be heard.

There is no mutual inconsistency between the treatments made by the two acts, and the substantive changes made by Act 79 are made here in order to give effect to both treatments.

SB285, s. 21 Section 21. 48.38 (4m) of the statutes, as affected by 2009 Wisconsin Act 79, sections 56 and 57, and 2009 Wisconsin Act 94, sections 113 and 114, is repealed and recreated to read:

If a hearing is held under this paragraph, the agency responsible for preparing the permanency plan shall file the permanency plan with the court not less than 5 days before the date of the hearing. At the hearing, the court shall consider placing the child in a placement outside this state if the court determines that such a placement would be in the best interests of the child and appropriate to achieving the goal of the child's permanency plan.

SB285,11,4 (b) At least 10 days before the date of the hearing the court shall notify the child; any parent, guardian, and legal custodian of the child; any foster parent, or other physical custodian described in s. 48.62 (2) of the child, the operator of the facility in which the child is living, or the relative with whom the child is living; and, if the child is an Indian child, the Indian child's Indian custodian and tribe of the time, place, and purpose of the hearing, of the issues to be determined at the hearing, and of the fact that they shall have a right to be heard at the hearing.

SB285,11,19 (c) If the child's permanency plan includes a statement under sub. (4) (i) indicating that the child's age and developmental level are sufficient for the court to consult with the child regarding the child's permanency plan or if, notwithstanding a decision under sub. (4) (i) that it would not be appropriate for the court to consult with the child, the court determines that consultation with the child would be in the best interests of the child, the court shall consult with the child, in an age-appropriate and developmentally appropriate manner, regarding the child's permanency plan and any other matters the court finds appropriate. If none of those circumstances apply, the court may permit the child's caseworker, the child's counsel, or, subject to s. 48.235 (3) (a), the child's guardian ad litem to make a written or oral statement during the hearing, or to submit a written statement prior to the hearing, expressing the child's wishes, goals, and concerns regarding the permanency plan and those matters. If the court permits such a written or oral statement to be made or submitted, the court may nonetheless require the child to be physically present at the hearing.

SB285,12,2 (d) The court shall give a foster parent, other physical custodian described in s. 48.62 (2), operator of a facility, or relative who is notified of a hearing under par. (b) a right to be heard at the hearing by permitting the foster parent, other physical custodian, operator, or relative to make a written or oral statement during the hearing, or to submit a written statement prior to the hearing, relevant to the issues to be determined at the hearing. The foster parent, other physical custodian, operator of a facility, or relative does not become a party to the proceeding on which the hearing is held solely on the basis of receiving that notice and right to be heard.

Note: 2009 Wis. Act 79, section 56, and 2009 Wis. Act 94, section 113, create very similar, but not identical, provisions that are numbered s. 48.38 (4m). This treatment gives effect to both acts by merging the text of the two provisions and eliminating minor differences in punctuation and sentence structure. The provision created as s. 48.38 (4m) (c) in Act 94 is created as s. 48.38 (4m) (d) in Act 79, and a provision with no counterpart in Act 94 is created as s. 48.38 (4m) (c) in Act 79. The provision created as 48.38 (4m) (c) in Act 79 is recreated here as s. 48.38 (4m) (c), and the provision created as s. 48.38 (4m) (c) in Act 94 and as s. 48.38 (4m) (d) in Act 79 is recreated here as s. 48.38 (4m) (d).

Note: 2009 Wis. Act 79 deleted "review" without showing it as stricken and inserted "hearing" without showing it as scored. No change was intended. The proceeding under s. 938.38 (5) (b) is referred to as a "review" throughout the provision.

SB285, s. 32 Section 32. The treatment of 48.43 (5m) of the statutes by 2009 Wisconsin Act 79, section 90, is not repealed by 2009 Wisconsin Act 94, section 157. Both treatments stand.

Note: There is no conflict of substance. As merged by the legislative reference bureau, s. 48.43 (5m) reads:

(5m) Either the court or the agency that prepared the permanency plan shall furnish a copy of the original plan and each revised plan to the child, if he or she is 12 years of age or over, to the child's foster parent or treatment foster parent, the operator of the facility in which the child is living, or the relative with whom the child is living, and, if the order under sub. (1) involuntarily terminated parental rights to an Indian child, to the Indian child's tribe.

SB285, s. 33 Section 33. 48.43 (5m) of the statutes, as affected by 2009 Wisconsin Act 94, section 158, is amended to read:

SB285,17,13 48.43 (5m) Either the court or the agency that prepared the permanency plan shall furnish a copy of the original plan and each revised plan to the child, if he or she is 12 years of age or over, to the child's foster parent or, the operator of the facility in which the child is living, or the relative with whom the child is living, and, if the order under sub. (1) involuntarily terminated parental rights to an Indian child, to the Indian child's tribe.

Note: 2009 Wis. Act 94, section 158, repealed and recreated s. 48.43 (5m) without taking cognizance of the repeal and recreation of the provision by 2009 Wis. Act 79, section 91.
