Thanksgiving Parent-time in 2017

In 2017 the “custodial” parent gets the Thanksgiving holiday under the Utah in-state parent-time statute. The Thanksgiving holiday is defined as beginning Wednesday at 7 p.m. until Sunday at 7 p.m.

If your order follows the out-of-state schedule in Utah Code 30-3-37 then in 2017 the “noncustodial” parent gets the Thanksgiving holiday from Wednesday until Sunday.

Bear in mind this is based on the standard provisions of the Utah Code. Some court orders deviate from the standard schedule and if your court order does so then you should follow what is stated in your order. There are also special rules in place for children under 3 years of age.
