AI Summary
This bill enacts the "Extended Juvenile Jurisdiction Act," which establishes a juvenile justice pilot program in Shelby County. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated to allow the state to request an "extended juvenile jurisdiction designation" for certain juvenile offenders, including those under 13 charged with first-degree murder and those 14 or older charged with certain serious crimes. The bill sets forth procedures for determining competency, capacity, and fitness to proceed, as well as a designation hearing process. If a juvenile is designated as an "extended juvenile jurisdiction offender," they have a right to a jury trial and the court can impose both juvenile and adult sentences, with provisions for reviewing and modifying the disposition over time.
