Punishment and options for person convicted of nonpayment of child support.  Provides that a person convicted of DUI or any offense for which a restricted license may be issued under restrictions set forth in subsection E of § 18.2-271.1 may be issued such a license for travel to and from appointments approved by the Division of Child Support Enforcement of the Department of Social Services as a requirement of participation in a court-ordered intensive case monitoring program for child support, for which the participant maintains written proof of the appointment, including written proof of the date and time of the appointment on his person. The bill also provides that the Department of Motor Vehicles shall not renew a driver's license or terminate a license suspension imposed for nonpayment of child support until it has received from the Department of Social Services a certification that a person ordered by a juvenile and domestic relations district court into an intensive case monitoring program for child support for noncustodial parents continues successful participation in the program or has completed the program. The bill also provides for the option of home/electronic incarceration of a person convicted of nonsupport.
