We translated into Spanish three recently created and five recently revised questions in our Puerto Rico Custody section.
In our Oregon Custody section, we revised If my child was conceived through rape, can the person who raped me get custody or parenting time?, in English and Spanish, to add that an offender who has been convicted of rape in the third degree cannot get custody or parenting time with a child conceived as a result of that rape, based on legislative updates that went into effect on January 1, 2026. We also updated two related statutes on our Selected Oregon Statutes page.
