S 7746 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Eliminates the requirement that a driver's license, professional license or recreational license be suspended for failing to pay child support

Bill S 7746 eliminates the requirement to suspend a driver's license, professional license, or recreational license when an individual fails to pay child support. It amends sections of the Domestic Relations Law, Vehicle and Traffic Law, and Social Services Law. Specifically, it removes the legal provisions that mandate or allow for the suspension of driving privileges solely due to unpaid child support arrears. The bill retains the ability for courts to order the suspension of driving privileges if a person fails to comply with summonses, subpoenas, or warrants related to paternity proceedings.
