HOUSE BILL 387
Law
Domestic violence, penalties
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE – Amends existing law to revise the penalty for a first conviction for domestic violence.
RS30838 / H0387
This bill, relating to criminal domestic violence, amends the jail penalty from up to six (6) months to up to one (1) year for misdemeanor domestic violence conviction. This does not mean the convicted person will serve that length of time in jail, but it allows the judge this option based on the circumstances of the crime. There are also several technical corrections.
This legislation causes no additional expenditure of funds at the state or local level of government nor does it cause an increase or decrease in revenue for state or local government therefore the legislation has no fiscal impact.
