What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, a juvenile who is alleged to be delinquent, and the parent, guardian, or legal custodian of that juvenile, do not have the right to demand a trial by jury in a proceeding under the Juvenile Justice Code. This bill grants that right to such a juvenile and to his or her parent, guardian, or legal custodian, if the person filing the delinquency petition reserves the right to recommend placement of the juvenile in the Serious Juvenile Offender Program or in a juvenile correctional facility beyond the age of 17 years.
