What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill eliminates the original jurisdiction of a court of criminal jurisdiction
over a juvenile who is alleged to have 1) committed assault or battery while placed
in a juvenile correctional facility; 2) committed first-degree or second-degree
intentional homicide or first-degree reckless homicide on or after the juvenile's tenth
birthday; 3) violated any state criminal law, if the juvenile has previously been
convicted of a crime either under the original jurisdiction of a court of criminal
jurisdiction or following a waiver of jurisdiction by a court assigned to exercise
jurisdiction under the Juvenile Justice Code (juvenile court). Under the bill, a
juvenile who is alleged to have committed any of those violations on or after the
effective date of the bill is subject to the jurisdiction of the juvenile court.
