An Act to require restitution for a child whose parent is killed by a drunk driver

This bill (HD 370) requires courts to order defendants convicted of vehicular homicide while intoxicated - resulting in a parent's death - to pay monthly restitution to the victim's surviving children. The payments cover support until the child turns 18 or graduates high school (whichever is later), with an extension to age 22 for those pursuing higher education. Courts determine the payment amount based on the child's needs, the defendant's financial ability, and other factors like the child's living situation and educational requirements. The restitution must be paid to the surviving parent or guardian, and defendants unable to pay while incarcerated must begin payments within one year of release.
