NOT CONSIDERED 01/02/2024

On page 2, beginning on line 22, after "sentencing," strike all material through "section" on line 33 and insert "the court may determine that the offender is not required to pay, or may relieve the offender of the requirement to pay, full or partial restitution and accrued interest on restitution where the entity to whom restitution is owed is an insurer or state agency, except for restitution owed to the department of labor and industries under chapter 7.68 RCW, if the court finds that the offender does not have the current or likely future ability to pay"

EFFECT:  Restores current law by removing a court's discretion to determine, at any time including at sentencing, that a person convicted of vehicular homicide may be relieved of the requirement to pay full or partial child maintenance restitution if the court finds that the person does not or will not have the ability to pay it.
