INCOME WITHHOLDING-FINES
Summary
Amends the Income Withholding for Support Act. Requires a payor who has been served with an income withholding notice to withhold the specified amount from an obligee's wages. Provides that, if the payor fails to withhold the sums from the obligor's wages, the payor shall pay a penalty of $100 per day for each day, after the 7 business days grace period has expired, that the amount is not paid to the State Disbursement Unit. Makes the $100 per day penalty mandatory unless the payor is able to demonstrate the payor's compelling cause or justification for the payor's failure to withhold or failure to pay over withheld amounts to the State Disbursement Unit.
