John
Izzo attended the Ohio State Bar Association’s Animal Law Committee Meeting on
January 17, 2014. At the meeting, the Committee decided to ask the Bar
Association to support HB 243. HB 243 is in the House Judiciary
Committee. It would require a child who is adjudicated a delinquent child
for cruelty to a companion animal to undergo a psychological evaluation and, if
recommended, counseling, to require the court to sentence other offenders who
commit that offense to probation supervision, and to include the protection of
companion animals in temporary protection orders, domestic violence protections
orders, anti-stalking protection orders, and related protection orders.
