Supervised visitation at the Canadian County District Court
In Canadian County, custody and visitation cases go to the Canadian County District Court (Children's Justice Center has an Associate District Judge (family role not confirmed)).
How supervised visitation works here
- Oklahoma law lets a judge order visitation supervised by another person or agency when domestic violence or stalking has happened and safety steps are needed.
- Under the same statute, the judge may order the parent who committed the abuse to pay a fee to help cover supervised visits or child exchanges.
- The judge may also order that exchanges of the child happen through a third party or in a protected setting.
- In many cases with minor children, the judge can require parents to complete a parenting education program before final custody orders, and this can be waived for good cause such as domestic violence.
