From the 151st General Assembly, this Act amends Chapter 27 and Chapter 31 of Title 21 of the Delaware Code. First, it amends Chapter 27 by amending the requirement that a felon identified as a sex offender on their Drivers License identify themselves with a “Y”. This Act changes the requirement to an “SO”, instead of a “Y”. Next, this Act amends Chapter 31 by adding a requirement that the Court also take possession of their nondriver identification card, and issue a temporary identification card. It also requires the Division of Motor Vehicles issue Nondriver Identification Cards, where no such prior obligation existed, with “SO” on the front of such cards, as well as the phrase “sex offender” on the back of the Identification Card. This Act also establishes the fees applicable to sex offenders applying for a replacement identification card.
