HB 1892 enacts the Uniform Unregulated Child Custody Transfer Act to regulate and criminalize unregulated transfers of child custody outside formal legal processes. It prohibits parents or conservators from transferring custody with intent to abandon rights unless through adoption, judicial action, or emergency placements. Violations are classified as misdemeanors or third-degree felonies, depending on circumstances. The act also addresses the solicitation and advertising of illegal custody transfers.
