CRIME VICTIMS-NOTIFICATION

Summary
Amends the Crime Victims Compensation Act. Provides that "legal disability" includes posttraumatic stress disorder. Provides that, to qualify for the right to compensation for victims of specified offenses, the appropriate law enforcement officials were notified within 7 days of the perpetration of the crime allegedly causing death or injury to the victim or, if the notification was made more than 7 days after the perpetration of the crime, the applicant establishes that the notice was timely under the circumstances. Provides that, if the applicant has obtained an order of protection or a civil no contact order or has presented at a hospital for sexual assault evidence collection and medical care, the applicant's action shall constitute appropriate notification and cooperation under the Act. Requires the applicant to cooperate with law enforcement officials (instead of fully cooperate with law enforcement officials) in order to qualify for the right to compensate under the Act.
