NRS125C.0643. Notice required of deploying parent. [Effective January 1, 2014.]

      1.  Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, and subject to subsection 3, a deploying parent shall notify in a record the other parent of a pending deployment not later than 7 days after receiving notice of deployment unless reasonably prevented from doing so by the circumstances of service. If the circumstances of service prevent such notification within 7 days, such notification must be made as soon as reasonably possible thereafter.

      2.  Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, and subject to subsection 3, each parent shall in a record provide the other parent with a plan for fulfilling that parent’s share of custodial responsibility during deployment as soon as reasonably possible after receiving notice of deployment under subsection 1.

      3.  If an existing court order prohibits disclosure of the address or contact information of the other parent, a notification of deployment under subsection 1, or notification of a plan for custodial responsibility during deployment under subsection 2, may be made only to the issuing court. If the address of the other parent is available to the issuing court, the court shall forward the notification to the other parent. The court shall keep confidential the address or contact information of the other parent.

      4.  Notice in a record is not required if the parents are living in the same residence and there is actual notice of the deployment or plan.

      5.  In a proceeding regarding custodial responsibility between parents, a court may consider the reasonableness of a parent’s efforts to comply with this section.
