Summary
The bill changes the state’s definition of “household member” to cover people who are or were in a dating relationship, treating them like spouses or co‑habitants for abuse statutes. It also allows parents, guardians, legal counsel or other appropriate adults to file protection orders on behalf of minor household members. These changes aim to give victims of dating violence clearer legal recourse and make it easier for minors to receive protection.
