Maryland law aims to curb legal kidnapping of children
A proposed Maryland bill seeks to stop a divorced or separated parent from taking a child without the custodial parent’s court permission. It would make abduction illegal and allow authorities to intervene, with a 96 hour window for the noncustodial parent to seek custody changes. The measure, supported as overdue, awaits the governor elect’s signature.
