Montana HB712 requires restitution for minor children of victims of vehicular homicide while under the influence.
Montana HB712 mandates that a person convicted of vehicular homicide while under the influence must pay restitution for the support of each minor child whose parent or guardian was the victim of the offense. The court orders monthly payments until the child reaches 18 years of age or graduates from high school, whichever is later. The court considers factors such as the child's financial needs, the resources of the surviving parent or guardian, and the standard of living to which the child is accustomed when determining the amount of restitution.
