Summary

Existing law provides for the compensation of victims and derivative victims of specified types of crimes by the California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board from the Restitution Fund, a continuously appropriated fund, for specified losses suffered as a result of those crimes. Existing law sets forth eligibility requirements and specified limits on the amount of compensation the board may award. This bill would include victims of financial elder or dependent adult abuse within the definition of crimes that are eligible for compensation under these provisions, as specified, and provide reimbursement for financial counseling, as specified, for those victims. The bill would make a derivative victim ineligible for compensation if the only crime the victim suffered was financial elder or dependent adult abuse. The bill would also provide related legislative findings and declarations. By expanding the authorization for the use of moneys in the Restitution Fund, a continuously appropriated fund, this bill would make an appropriation.
