A provider of supervised visitation is defined in Family Code section 3200 and includes any individual who functions as a visitation monitor as well as supervised visitation centers. A provider is either a “professional provider” or a “nonprofessional provider”. This Standing Order is intended to implement the standards of practice for providers of supervised visitation as set forth in California Rules of Court, Standards of Judicial Administration, Standard 5.20 (“Standard 5.20”) and supersedes Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles Local Rule 5.25.

The nonprofessional provider must: (1) Have no record of a conviction for child molestation, child abuse, or other crimes against a person; (2) Have proof of automobile insurance if transporting the child; (3) Have no current or past court order in which the provider is the person being supervised; and (4) Agree to adhere to and enforce the court order regarding supervised visitation. (5) Sign and file with the Court a Declaration of Supervised Visitation Provider (NonProfessional) (form FL-324(NP) stating that all requirements to be a non-professional provider have been met.
