New York S01705 imposes a duty on a vehicular assailant to support a surviving child of a parent or guardian killed by such person.

New York S01705 amends the family court act and the social services law to impose a duty on a vehicular assailant to support a surviving child of a parent or guardian killed by such person. The bill defines "income" and provides for a determination of support. The court must consider the financial status of the assailant upon release from incarceration, the child's needs, and the assailant's ability to pay. The support obligation is calculated based on the assailant's income and the child's needs, with a minimum of $25 per month.
