AI Summary
This bill requires that a person convicted of driving under the influence (DUI) and causing the death of a parent must pay child support to the deceased parent's child(ren) until the child(ren) reach 18 or 21 years old if they are still in high school. The court must determine a reasonable amount of child support based on factors such as the financial needs and resources of the child(ren) and surviving parent/guardian. The court will act as a trustee to receive and promptly remit the child support payments to the surviving parent or guardian. The court can also order the person's employer to garnish wages to pay the child support. The bill provides a one-year grace period for incarcerated individuals to begin paying child support upon release, and allows the child support order to offset any civil judgment the surviving parent or guardian obtains against the convicted person.
