AB 1563 California Assembly · 2015-2016 Regular Session

Victim's compensation: claims: appeal.

Summary

Existing law generally provides for the compensation of victims and derivative victims of specified types of crimes by the California Victim Compensation Board and requires the board to grant a hearing to an applicant who contests a staff recommendation to deny compensation in whole or part. Existing law requires decisions of the board to be made in writing. This bill would require decisions of the board to be made within 6 months of the date the board received the appeal unless the board determines that there was insufficient information to make a decision. The bill additionally would require the board to notify the applicant in writing, within 6 months of the date the board received the appeal, if the board determines that there was insufficient information to make a decision. The bill would also make various conforming changes in this regard.
