The Tennessee Temporary Parenting Plan (TIPP) is an agreement between two parents regarding the care, custody, and visitation of their children during a parental dispute. It is a legal document created by a judge to provide a structured parenting plan while the parents are in the process of resolving a dispute. The TIPP outlines the rights and responsibilities of each parent and establishes a temporary parenting schedule. The Tennessee Supreme Court has established two types of Tennessee Temporary Parenting Plans: Standard TIPP and Special TIPP. The Standard TIPP is used for most parents and outlines basic custody and visitation rights. The Special TIPP is for certain situations, such as cases involving domestic violence, parental substance abuse, mental health issues, or special needs children. The TIPP outlines specific rights and responsibilities for each parent, such as decision-making authority, parenting time, contact with the child, and communication between parents. It also includes provisions for child support, health insurance, and transportation. The plan is meant to serve as a temporary agreement until the parents can reach a more permanent solution, or until the court makes a final ruling.
