HB 2126 -- Crime Victims' Compensation

Sponsor:  Kelly (27)

This bill makes several changes to the provisions concerning
crime victims' compensation.  The bill deletes a requirement
that $50 be deducted from all crime victims' compensation
awards.  The bill raises a limitation on the amount that can be
recovered for loss of earnings or support from gainful
employment from $15,000 to $25,000.  The bill also excludes life
insurance proceeds from the benefits that are counted against
the amount recovered under the crime victims' compensation fund.
