Bill Summary

This bill requires juveniles to appear before the court in the county where the alleged delinquency complaint occurred. Under the court rules, juvenile delinquency complaints are filed in the county where the incident giving rise to the complaint allegedly occurred, but if the juvenile resides in a county other than the county of the alleged incident, the venue is set to be the county where the juvenile resides. This bill requires a juvenile accused of a delinquency complaint to appear before the court in the county where the incident giving rise to the complaint allegedly occurred.

AI Summary

This bill requires juveniles accused of a delinquency complaint to appear before the court in the county where the incident giving rise to the complaint allegedly occurred, rather than the county where the juvenile resides. It also requires the court to provide the juvenile with reasonable transportation accommodations to ensure they are able to appear before the court.
