AI Summary

This bill revises the list of programs within the Department of Juvenile Justice, repeals a provision related to shared county and state responsibility for juvenile detention, and modifies the calculation and payment of detention costs for counties that do not provide their own detention care for juveniles. It requires the Department of Juvenile Justice to calculate and provide each non-fiscally constrained county that does not provide its own detention care its annual percentage share of 50% of the total shared detention costs, which the county must then pay in monthly installments. The bill also removes the requirement for counties to file a notice of voluntary dismissal and execute a release and waiver of any existing or future claims related to detention cost sharing.
