What it does

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, $75,000 in Indian gaming receipts is appropriated to the Department of Corrections in each of fiscal years 2009-10 and 2010-11 to reimburse tribes and county departments of human services or social services (county departments) for unexpected or unusually high-cost out-of-home care placements of Indian juveniles who have been adjudicated delinquent. Currently, an Indian juvenile may be adjudicated delinquent by either a tribal court or by a court assigned to exercise jurisdiction under the Juvenile Justice Code (commonly referred to as a "juvenile court"). This bill limits the use of those moneys to reimbursement of tribes and county departments for unexpected or unusually high-cost out-of-home care placements of Indian juveniles who have been adjudicated delinquent by tribal courts .
