HI SB2811

Allows family courts to terminate parental rights if clear and convincing evidence shows a child was conceived as a result of sexual assault by that parent, without requiring a criminal conviction.

Accepts as conclusive proof of sexual assault either a guilty plea or conviction for the sexual assault or equivalent offense in any state, territory, possession, or Native American tribe.

Creates a presumption that termination of parental rights is in the best interest of the child if the child was conceived as a result of sexual assault.

Requires the parent to continue paying child support even after parental rights are terminated and maintains the option for the custodial parent to petition for reinstatement of rights.

Does not apply if the natural parents later cohabitate and establish a mutual custodial environment for the child after the sexual assault.
