Bridging Borders: 17th Circuit Hosts Delegation from Indonesia
A contingent of Indonesian judicial delegates recently visited the 17th Judicial Circuit to learn about Florida’s family court system. They discussed The 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, Florida’s Child Welfare system, and general family court practices with Judge Jose Izquierdo, the Circuit’s Hague Convention representative.
The group also received a detailed overview of child custody and child support procedures. Judge Izquierdo shared his expertise on Florida’s approach to international child abduction cases.
Thank you to Judge Izquierdo for hosting the delegation and to attorney Ashley Bober for participating in the visit.
The visit took place on July 23, 2025.
