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