Revising laws related to the Montana end of watch trust

This bill updates Montana's End of Watch Trust laws to improve how payments are administered to law enforcement officers and their families. It gives the Department of Justice authority to create rules for managing the trust, including setting application processes, appeal procedures, and reporting requirements. The bill also clarifies eligibility criteria, requiring applicants to provide a workers' compensation determination of permanent and total disability for catastrophic injury claims, and allows legal children of officers to receive payments after age 18 in certain circumstances.
