SOURCE: Page 1, line 1; (07)MO102714.1. -->     Page 1, between the enacting clause and line 1, begin a new paragraph and insert:
SOURCE: IC 5-28-15-14; (07)MO102714.1. -->     "SECTION 1. IC 5-28-15-14, AS ADDED BY P.L.4-2005, SECTION 34, IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2007]: Sec. 14. (a) A U.E.A. shall do the following:

    (b) A U.E.A. may do the following:
        (1) Initiate and coordinate any community development activities that aid in the employment of zone residents, improve the physical environment, or encourage the turnover or retention of capital in the zone. These additional activities include but are not limited to recommending to the municipality the manner and purpose of expenditure of funds generated under IC 36-7-14-39(g) or IC 36-7-15.1-26(g).
        (2) Recommend that the board modify a zone boundary or disqualify a zone business from eligibility for one (1) or more benefits or incentives available to zone businesses.
        (3) Incorporate as a nonprofit corporation. Such a corporation may continue after the expiration of the zone in accordance with the general principles established by this chapter. A U.E.A. that incorporates as a nonprofit corporation under this subdivision may purchase or receive real property from a redevelopment commission under IC 36-7-14-22.2 or IC 36-7-15.1-15.2.
    (c) The U.E.A. may request, by majority vote, that the legislative body of the municipality in which the zone is located modify or waive any municipal ordinance or regulation that is in effect in the zone.

        (1) The aerospace industry is adversely affected by the calculation of qualified research expense credits under this chapter, based on the Internal Revenue Code's treatment of federal defense spending trends in the 1980s.
        (2) This adverse impact creates a disincentive for making qualified research expenditures in Indiana.
        (3) Manufacturers of aerospace and jet propulsion equipment have been a major in-state employer of science and engineering graduates from Indiana universities.
        (4) The presence of a strong aerospace manufacturing base furthers the state's interest in maintaining the viability of a United States government military installation that is used for the design, construction, maintenance, and testing of electronic devices and ordnance.
        (5) The creation of an alternative qualified research expense credit promotes vital state interests.
    (b) This section applies only to a taxpayer that:
        (1) is primarily engaged in the production of civil and military jet

propulsion systems;
        (2) is certified by the Indiana economic development corporation as an aerospace advanced manufacturer;
        (3) is a United States Department of Defense contractor; and

    (c) A taxpayer that incurs Indiana qualified research expense in a particular taxable year may elect to calculate the research expense tax credit under this section instead of under section 2 of this chapter.
    (d) An election under this section applies to the taxable year for which the election is made and all succeeding taxable years unless the election is revoked with the consent of the department. An election must be made in the manner and on the form prescribed by the department.
    (e) A credit may be authorized by the Indiana economic development corporation and, if authorized, shall be equal to a percentage determined by the Indiana economic development corporation, not to exceed ten percent (10%), multiplied by:
        (1) the taxpayer's Indiana qualified research expenses for the taxable year; minus
        (2) fifty percent (50%) of the taxpayer's average Indiana qualified research expenses for the three (3) taxable years preceding the taxable year for which the credit is being determined.
    (f) The credit amount determined in subsection (e) applies to the taxable year for which the determination is made and all succeeding taxable years unless the determination is changed by the Indiana economic development corporation. The duration of a determination made by the Indiana economic development corporation under subsection (e) shall be specified by the Indiana economic development corporation at the time of the determination.

SOURCE: IC 22-4-15-2; (07)MO102714.12. -->     "SECTION 12. IC 22-4-15-2 IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2007]: Sec. 2. (a) With respect to benefit periods established on and after July 3, 1977, an individual is ineligible for waiting period or benefit rights, or extended benefit rights, if the department finds that, being totally, partially, or part-totally unemployed at the time when the work offer is effective or when the individual is directed to apply for work, the individual fails without good cause:
        (1) to apply for available, suitable work when directed by the commissioner, the deputy, or an authorized representative of the department of workforce development or the United States training and employment service;
        (2) to accept, at any time after the individual is notified of a separation, suitable work when found for and offered to the individual by the commissioner, the deputy, or an authorized representative of the department of workforce development or the United States training and employment service, or an employment unit; or
        (3) to return to the individual's customary self-employment when directed by the commissioner or the deputy.
    (b) With respect to benefit periods established on and after July 6, 1980, the ineligibility shall continue for the week in which the failure occurs and until the individual earns remuneration in employment equal to or exceeding the weekly benefit amount of the individual's claim in each of eight (8) weeks. If the qualification amount has not been earned at the expiration of an individual's benefit period, the unearned amount shall be carried forward to an extended benefit period or to the benefit period of a subsequent claim.
    (c) With respect to extended benefit periods established on and after July 5, 1981, the ineligibility shall continue for the week in which the failure occurs and until the individual earns remuneration in employment equal to or exceeding the weekly benefit amount of the individual's claim in each of four (4) weeks.
    (d) If an individual failed to apply for or accept suitable work as outlined in this section, the maximum benefit amount of the individual's current claim, as initially determined, shall be reduced by twenty-five percent (25%). If twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum benefit amount is not an even dollar amount, the amount of such reduction shall be raised to the next higher even dollar amount. The maximum benefit amount of the individual's current claim may not be reduced by more than twenty-five percent (25%) during any benefit period or extended benefit period.
    (e) In determining whether or not any such work is suitable for an individual, the department shall consider:
        (1) the degree of risk involved to such individual's health, safety, and morals;
        (2) the individual's physical fitness and prior training and experience;
        (3) the individual's length of unemployment and prospects for securing local work in the individual's customary occupation; and
        (4) the distance of the available work from the individual's residence.
However, work under substantially the same terms and conditions under which the individual was employed by a base-period employer,

which is within the individual's prior training and experience and physical capacity to perform, shall be considered to be suitable work unless the claimant has made a bona fide change in residence which makes such offered work unsuitable to the individual because of the distance involved. For an individual who is subject to section 1(c)(8) of this chapter, the determination of suitable work for the individual must reasonably accommodate the individual's need to address the physical, psychological, legal, and other effects of domestic or family violence.
    (f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this article, no work shall be considered suitable and benefits shall not be denied under this article to any otherwise eligible individual for refusing to accept new work under any of the following conditions:
        (1) If the position offered is vacant due directly to a strike, lockout, or other labor dispute.
        (2) If the remuneration, hours, or other conditions of the work offered are substantially less favorable to the individual than those prevailing for similar work in the locality.
        (3) If as a condition of being employed the individual would be required to join a company union or to resign from or refrain from joining a bona fide labor organization.
        (4) If as a condition of being employed the individual would be required to discontinue training into which the individual had entered with the approval of the department.
    (g) Notwithstanding subsection (e), with respect to extended benefit periods established on and after July 5, 1981, "suitable work" means any work which is within an individual's capabilities. However, if the individual furnishes evidence satisfactory to the department that the individual's prospects for obtaining work in the individual's customary occupation within a reasonably short period are good, the determination of whether any work is suitable work shall be made as provided in subsection (e).
    (h) With respect to extended benefit periods established on and after July 5, 1981, no work shall be considered suitable and extended benefits shall not be denied under this article to any otherwise eligible individual for refusing to accept new work under any of the following conditions:
        (1) If the gross average weekly remuneration payable to the individual for the position would not exceed the sum of:
            (A) the individual's average weekly benefit amount for the individual's benefit year; plus
            (B) the amount (if any) of supplemental unemployment compensation benefits (as defined in Section 501(c)(17)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code) payable to the individual for such week.
        (2) If the position was not offered to the individual in writing or

was not listed with the department of workforce development.
        (3) If such failure would not result in a denial of compensation under the provisions of this article to the extent that such provisions are not inconsistent with the applicable federal law.
        (4) If the position pays wages less than the higher of:
            (A) the minimum wage provided by 29 U.S.C. 206(a)(1) (the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938), without regard to any exemption. or
            (B) the state minimum wage (IC 22-2-2).
    (i) The department of workforce development shall refer individuals eligible for extended benefits to any suitable work (as defined in subsection (g)) to which subsection (h) would not apply.

        (4) expires;
in the same manner as a judgment lien created in a civil proceeding.
    (c) When a restitution order is issued under subsection (a), the issuing court may order the person to pay the restitution, or part of the

restitution, directly to:
        (1) the victim services division of the Indiana criminal justice institute in an amount not exceeding:
            (A) the amount of the award, if any, paid to the victim under IC 5-2-6.1; and
            (B) the cost of the reimbursements, if any, for emergency services provided to the victim under IC 16-10-1.5 (before its repeal) or IC 16-21-8; or

            (A) a victim of a crime;
            (B) a victim's estate; or
            (C) the family of a victim who is deceased.
The victim services division of the Indiana criminal justice institute shall deposit the restitution it receives under this subsection in the violent crime victims compensation fund established by IC 5-2-6.1-40.
    (d) When a restitution order is issued under subsection (a), (i), or (j), the issuing court shall send a certified copy of the order to the clerk of the circuit court in the county where the felony or misdemeanor charge was filed. The restitution order must include the following information:
        (1) The name and address of the person that is to receive the restitution.
        (2) The amount of restitution the person is to receive.

    (e) An order of restitution under subsection (a), (i), or (j), does not bar a civil action for:
        (1) damages that the court did not require the person to pay to the victim under the restitution order but arise from an injury or property damage that is the basis of restitution ordered by the court; and
        (2) other damages suffered by the victim.
    (f) Regardless of whether restitution is required under subsection (a) as a condition of probation or other sentence, the restitution order is not discharged by the completion of any probationary period or other sentence imposed for a felony or misdemeanor.
    (g) A restitution order under subsection (a), (i), or (j), is not discharged by the liquidation of a person's estate by a receiver under IC 32-30-5 (or IC 34-48-1, IC 34-48-4, IC 34-48-5, IC 34-48-6, IC 34-1-12, or IC 34-2-7 before their repeal).

    (i) The court may order the person convicted of an offense under

IC 35-43-9 to make restitution to the victim of the crime. The court shall base its restitution order upon a consideration of the amount of money that the convicted person converted, misappropriated, or received, or for which the convicted person conspired. The restitution order issued for a violation of IC 35-43-9 must comply with subsections (b), (d), (e), and (g), and is not discharged by the completion of any probationary period or other sentence imposed for a violation of IC 35-43-9.
    (j) The court may order the person convicted of an offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5 to make restitution to the victim of the crime, the victim's estate, or the family of a victim who is deceased. The court shall base its restitution order upon a consideration of the amount of fraud or harm caused by the convicted person and any reasonable expenses (including lost wages) incurred by the victim in correcting the victim's credit report and addressing any other issues caused by the commission of the offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5. If, after a person is sentenced for an offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5, a victim, a victim's estate, or the family of a victim discovers or incurs additional expenses that result from the convicted person's commission of the offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5, the court may issue one (1) or more restitution orders to require the convicted person to make restitution, even if the court issued a restitution order at the time of sentencing. For purposes of entering a restitution order after sentencing, a court has continuing jurisdiction over a person convicted of an offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5 for five (5) years after the date of sentencing. Each restitution order issued for a violation of IC 35-43-5-3.5 must comply with subsections (b), (d), (e), and (g), and is not discharged by the completion of any probationary period or other sentence imposed for an offense under IC 35-43-5-3.5.
    (k) The court shall order a person convicted of an offense under IC 35-42-3.5 to make restitution to the victim of the crime in an amount equal to the greater of the following:
