Bill Summary
For legislation relative to juvenile adjudications. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law to specify that a person shall not be considered to have a prior conviction if the offense was an adjudication as a youthful offender, a delinquent child, or a similar violation of the laws of another jurisdiction, where the person was treated as a juvenile. This change aims to prevent juvenile adjudications from being counted as prior convictions for certain purposes, recognizing the different treatment and rehabilitation focus of the juvenile justice system.
