HB 1163: Domestic violence

Concerning domestic violence.

Summary

  • Elevates Assault in the fourth degree involving domestic violence (DV) from a gross misdemeanor to a class C felony when a defendant has two or more prior adult convictions for certain crimes involving DV in the previous 10 years.
  • Counts prior adult convictions for Assault of a Child or Criminal Mistreatment involving DV as two points when calculating an offender score for sentencing pursuant to a felony DV conviction.
  • Requires deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) collection from offenders upon conviction for an Assault in the fourth degree offense when DV was pleaded and proven.
  • Provides that sheriffs may waive fees associated with service of writs of habeas corpus issued for return of a child in circumstances in which the person granted the writ is unable to pay due to poverty.
  • Requires the Washington State Gender and Justice Commission to convene work groups to address the issues of DV perpetrator treatment and DV risk assessment.
  • Provides that, with some exceptions, a vacated misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor DV conviction cannot be used in a later criminal prosecution, and states that the vacated conviction is not considered a conviction for the purposes of federal laws related to firearm restrictions.
