Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 707 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to juveniles.

AI Summary

This bill would repeal the authority of a district attorney to transfer a minor from juvenile court to adult criminal court if the minor was 14 or 15 years old when they allegedly committed a serious offense, unless the minor was not apprehended before the end of juvenile court jurisdiction. This would amend the Public Safety and Rehabilitation Act of 2016 (Proposition 57) passed by California voters, which allowed such transfers for 14- and 15-year-olds accused of certain serious crimes. By retaining more minors under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program, and the state would be required to reimburse local agencies and school districts for related costs.
