Modifies penalties relating to criminal offenses involving the custody of children

HB 383 reclassifies offenses related to interfering with child custody and parental kidnapping as more serious felonies. It increases penalties for taking or concealing a child from legal custody (now a class E felony, escalating to class D or B felony based on duration), and for parental kidnapping (class E felony, escalating to class D or B felony). The bill requires courts to order offenders to pay restitution to legal custodians for reasonable search or return expenses. This directly affects individuals who illegally remove, detain, or conceal children from custody and the legal custodians seeking recovery of related costs.
