MS HB1210

Requires the division to notify both a licensee and their employer by first class mail when the licensee holds a commercial driver's license and is behind on child support, with suspension possible after 90 days if arrearage is not paid or payment schedule agreed upon.

Maintains existing procedures allowing licensees to request a review or negotiate a payment schedule for child support arrearage within the 90-day notice period.

Requires licensing entities to notify both the licensee and employer within three business days of suspending a commercial driver's license for unpaid child support under Section 93-11-157(7).

Brings forward Section 93-11-163, which allows courts to order license suspension for child support delinquency and permits courts to stay suspension orders to allow defendants time to resolve arrearage.

Takes effect July 1, 2023.
