The Child's Voice in Proceedings

How a child's preferences and experiences are conveyed to the court in Colorado family law proceedings: through a CFI or PRE report, in-camera interview with the judge, or a GAL; the weight given to a child's stated preferences based on age and maturity; and why children do not testify in open court in Colorado family law cases.
