HB 2033 - H AMD 61

By Representative Rodne

FAILED 03/04/2015

    On page 2, line 25, after "renewal.))" strike all material through "expires" on line 29 and insert "The court shall grant the motion for renewal if the petitioner proves by a preponderance of the evidence that the respondent will engage in or attempt to engage in physical or nonphysical contact with the petitioner when the order expires"

EFFECT:  Provides that the court must grant a motion for renewal of a sexual assault protection order upon a showing by the petitioner that the respondent will contact or attempt to contact the petitioner, rather than requiring the court to grant the motion absent a showing by the respondent that the respondent will not contact or attempt to contact the petitioner.
