PJC 217.4

Answer by writing the geographic area. CHILD A ______________ CHILD B ______________

Evidence of abusive physical force or sexual abuse. In an appropriate case, rel evant portions of PJC 215.2 (evidence of abusive physical force or sexual abuse) should be included in the charge. Evidence of family violence, child abuse or neglect, or rendition of protective order against party. In an appropriate case, relevant portions of PJC 215.4 (history or pattern of family violence, history or pattern of child abuse or neglect, or protective order) should be included in the charge. Modification within one year. The Committee believes the likelihood that a jury would be impaneled to decide a modification brought under Tex. Fam. Code §156.102, after a court has determined the facts stated in the required affidavit to be sufficient to support an allegation and has rendered temporary orders, is extremely remote. For this reason, the Committee has proposed no instructions or questions based on that Code section. Geographic restriction. The jury may decide whether a joint or sole managing conservator is subject to a geographic restriction. See Tex. Fam. Code § 105.002(c)(1)(E), (c)(1)(F), (c)(2)(C).
