Maddy summaryThe bill title claims to address child endangerment, but the provided text contains definitions related to computer terminology (e.g., "computer," "access," "computer network") and lists dangerous felonies - including murder, assault, and robbery - but does not include "endangering the welfare of a child in the first degree" in the dangerous felony list. The text appears to be from a different bill (likely a cybercrime or computer-related measure), not a child welfare bill. Without actual provisions modifying child endangerment offenses, a factual summary matching the title cannot be generated from this context. The discrepancy suggests a possible error in the bill title or text provided.

Maddy summaryThis bill updates Missouri's laws regarding orders of protection by redefining key terms used in domestic violence and stalking cases. It clarifies that "abuse" includes specific acts like abusing a pet to control or intimidate a victim, while explicitly excluding reasonable physical discipline of children. The legislation also expands the definition of "family or household member" to include people in continuing romantic or intimate relationships, regardless of whether they have lived together or are married. Additionally, the bill adjusts the age threshold for defining adults and children from seventeen to eighteen years old. These changes aim to provide clearer guidelines for courts when issuing protection orders to victims of domestic violence and stalking.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires courts to order restitution payments from individuals convicted of specific offenses involving obscene or pornographic material. It mandates that offenders pay at least $3,000 for each image of a victim and $5,000 for each charged offense, regardless of whether they receive prison time or probation. Victims can also request additional funds to cover medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and the value of their labor. The law defines an "identifiable victim" as someone specifically identified in the case or whose image appears in the prohibited material.

Maddy summaryHB 2728 establishes a legal cause of action for individuals whose private intimate images are intentionally disclosed without their consent. The bill defines intimate images as photos or videos showing uncovered private body parts or sexual conduct and creates liability for anyone who knowingly shares these images when the person depicted did not agree to the disclosure. While the law provides protections for parents sharing images of their children and includes exceptions for law enforcement and public interest reporting, it also allows plaintiffs to use pseudonyms in court to maintain privacy. If a person is found liable, they may be required to pay damages for harm caused, any profits made from the image, and potentially punitive damages.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends existing legislation to clarify the definition of a "pipeline facility" when discussing the export of water out of the state. It specifically includes components like pipes, valves, pumping units, and metering stations within that definition. Additionally, the bill restricts water exports to only those moving via a pipeline facility. These changes directly affect the legal framework governing how water can be transported across state lines.

Maddy summaryHB 2418 modifies the rules for calculating Missouri income tax deductions for farmers by adjusting how certain federal tax benefits are treated. The bill requires taxpayers to add specific amounts to their federal adjusted gross income, such as refunds from prior years and interest on certain government bonds, while simultaneously allowing them to subtract other federal deductions like interest on U.S. government obligations. These changes aim to align Missouri tax calculations with federal adjustments, particularly regarding items that were previously excluded or deducted differently under federal law. The legislation applies to taxpayers claiming deductions related to farm property and income, ensuring that state tax liabilities reflect specific federal tax code provisions.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a legal framework to eliminate discriminatory restrictions in land records, such as those based on race, religion, or national origin. It allows property owners to record an amendment that removes these unlawful clauses from their deeds, while also enabling community associations to delete such restrictions from governing documents without a member vote. The law defines specific procedures for recording these amendments and clarifies that removing a discriminatory clause does not affect the validity of other lawful restrictions on the property. Additionally, the bill declares that certain old covenants restricting ownership based on personal characteristics are void and unenforceable.
