SDCL § 25-7-6.28: Child residence with parent for a night--Residence for days.

For the purposes of §§ 25-7-6.14 and 25-7-6.27, a child resides with a parent for a night if the child sleeps:

(1) At the residence of that parent at night, whether or not the parent is present; or

(2) In the company of the parent, if the child does not sleep at a parent's residence.

If, in a calendar year, due to a parent's nighttime work schedule, a child resides with a parent for days, but not nights, the court may condition the abatement on the required days rather than nights. In those instances, on a school day, the child is treated as residing at the primary residence registered with the school.
