Relative to diversion program eligibility for first offenses of juveniles. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill allows for delinquent juveniles to be eligible for diversion programs, which are court-administered programs that provide an alternative to traditional criminal proceedings, even if the offense would normally result in a specified punishment, as long as the juvenile has not previously violated a law in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The bill amends Chapter 119 of the General Laws to insert this new provision.
