This manual (written in 2023) is for incarcerated parents in California prisons and jails who want visits with their minor children but are not getting them. This manual is limited to information about custody cases in family court. It describes the different kinds of family court cases that can be brought to decide child custody and visiting rights, whether parents are married or not. It describes how to file a new case in family court or, if a case has already been filed, how to request a visiting order in that case.
