When you separate or divorce, you need to decide who will have “custody” of your children and how they will be taken care of. You also need to decide on visitation, which means how each parent will spend time with the children. There are two kinds of "custody" orders: Legal custody, which means to who makes important decisions for your children (health care, education, and welfare), and Physical custody, which means who your children live with “Visitation” (also called “time-share”) is: The plan for how the parents will share time with the children. In California, either parent can have custody, or the parents can share custody. The judge makes the final decision about custody and visitation but usually will approve the arrangement both parents agree on. If the parents can't agree, the judge will make a decision at a court hearing. The judge will not make a decision about custody/visitation until after the parents have met with a mediator. What are the types of custody orders? Legal custody can be: Joint, where both parents share the right and responsibility to make important decisions about the heath, education and welfare of the children Sole, where only one parent has the responsibility to make the important decisions about the health, education and welfare of the children Some examples of the decisions or choices parents with legal custody make are: School or childcare Religious activities or institutions Psychiatric, psychological, or other mental health counseling or therapy needs Doctor, dentist, orthodontist, or other health professional (except in emergency situations) Sports, summer camp, vacation, or extracurricular activities Travel Where to live Physical custody can be: Joint, which means that the children live with both parents Sole or primary, which means the children live with one parent most of the time and usually visit the other parent Sometimes, a judge gives parents joint legal custody, but not joint physical custody. This means both parents share the responsibility in making important decisions in the children’s lives. But, the children live with one parent most of the time. The parent who does not have physical custody usually has visitation with the children. What are the types of visitation orders? Visitation : When the parent who does not have the children more than half of the time has visitation with the children. Generally, it helps the parents and children to have detailed visitation plans to prevent conflicts and confusion Supervised Visitation: When the children's safety and well-being require that visits with the other parent be supervised by you, another adult, or a professional agency. Supervised visitation is sometimes also used in cases where a child and a parent need time to become more familiar with each other, like if a parent hasn’t seen the child in a long time and they need to slowly get to know each other again No Visitation: This option is used in situations when visiting with the parent, even with supervision, could be physically or emotionally harmful to the children. What are a “time-share plan” and a “parenting plan”? A time-share plan is another term used for visitation plan. A parenting plan can be a visitation plan, but usually also includes a custody plan that explains who has legal and physical custody. What does the law consider when deciding custody and visitation? The law says that judges must give custody according to what is in the best interest of the child. Judges look at the children’s health, safety and wellbeing to decide whether to give custody to one or both parents. Courts also consider any history of abuse by one or both of the parents. Courts do not automatically give custody to the mother or the father, no matter what the age or sex of your children. Courts cannot deny your right to custody or visitation just because you were never married to the other parent, or because you or the other parent has a physical disability, or a different lifestyle, religious belief or sexual orientation. In a few cases, if giving custody to either parent would harm the children, courts give custody to someone other than the parents because it is in the best interest of the children. Usually, this is called “guardianship,” where someone who is not the parent asks for custody of the children because the parents cannot care for the children. For more information, see Colusa's Self-Help page. What is “the best interest of the child”? It is what judges must consider to make their decisions about custody and visitation. To decide what is best for a child, the court will consider: The age of the child, The health of the child, The emotional ties between the parents and the child, The child's ties to school, home and their community, The ability of the parents to care for the child, Any history of family violence and/or substance abuse. If we have joint legal custody, do we have to agree on every decision? No, with joint legal custody both parents have the right to make decisions and either parent can make certain decisions on their own. It is important that parents cooperate in making decisions that require both parents' attention and to communicate any decisions that they make independently that might affect the other parent.

Divisions traffic information If you can't afford to pay If you can't afford to pay You may ask the court to reduce the amount you owe if you can't afford to pay your traffic ticket. In this section Traffic Information If you can't afford to pay Financial Hardship As part of your request, you must show proof that you do not have the financial means to pay your fine. You may ask the court to consider your ability to pay at any point in the process, but you must enter a plea of guilty or no contest before the court can give you an answer. The easiest way to request a fine reduction is to use the court’s new online request tool (recommended). The MyCitations online tool allows you to enter a plea and make an ability to pay requests on eligible infractions without going to court. In addition to requesting a reduction, you can request a payment plan, more time to pay or ask to complete community service instead of paying fines and fees. If your case is currently in collections and you cannot afford to pay your debt, you may still use MyCitations. The other way to request a fine reduction is to use form TR-320/CR320 - Can't Afford to Pay Fine: Traffic and Other Infractions. Please contact the clerk’s office for more information about using the form. Please note that if you do not act by the date on your citation and reminder notice, the court may add an additional fee of up to $100. If you cannot afford the fine amount, you can request a reduction to the amount you owe at any time while the fines remain unpaid. If you are experiencing financial hardship and you use the online tool to request a reduction, you may also use the online tool to ask the court to set up a payment plan, ask for an extension of time to pay what you owe and/or ask to complete community service hours in place of the fine. Payment plans will be approved for no more than $25 per month if you are approved for an ability-to-pay request. Fines and fees owed from a misdemeanor or felony offense are not eligible to request a reduction. Do not use the online tool if you want to: Contest the citation Attend traffic school Get a dismissal or reduction of charges with proof of correction Administrative ADA Policy Contact Jobs Terms of Use Attorney Resources Courtroom Schedule Forms and Local Rules California Court Find My Court Judicial Council of California Public Resources Court Holidays Language Access Information Colusa County Clerk Superior Court of California County of Colusa Judicial Branch of California Privacy Terms of Use © 2026 General Information | Superior Court of California | County of Colusa Skip to main content Skip to main content.
