AI Summary

The bill removes the ability of the criminal court to transfer jurisdiction for certain offenses to the juvenile court, and modifies reporting requirements related to juvenile adjudications. Overall, the bill aims to expand the jurisdiction of the juvenile court and provide more opportunities for juvenile offenders to be adjudicated in the juvenile justice system rather than the adult criminal justice system.
