Also, the bill provides that the burden of proof in a reverse waiver proceeding
is on the juvenile to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that jurisdiction should
be transferred to the juvenile court.
Under the current code, if a juvenile absconds and does not appear at his or her
waiver hearing, the juvenile court may waive its jurisdiction in the juvenile's absence
and the juvenile may contest the waiver when he or she is apprehended. This bill
provides that the juvenile may contest the waiver by showing the criminal court good
cause for his or her failure to appear. If the criminal court finds good cause for the
juvenile's failure to appear, the criminal court must transfer jurisdiction back to the
juvenile court for purposes of holding the waiver hearing.
Under the current code, in a waiver proceeding, if it appears that the juvenile
may be suitable for participation in the serious juvenile offender program or in the
adult intensive sanctions program, the judge must order DOC to submit a report
recommending whether the juvenile should be placed in either of those programs.
This bill eliminates that requirement and instead permits the juvenile court to
designate DOC, the county department or a child welfare agency to submit a report
analyzing the criteria on which the juvenile court must base its waiver decision. The
bill also permits the juvenile court to rely on facts stated in that report in making its
findings with respect to those criteria.
Under the current code, if a juvenile violates a state law, venue for the
proceeding is in the county where the violation occurred, except that, after the
juvenile is adjudged delinquent, the juvenile court of that county may transfer venue
to the juvenile's county of residence for disposition, if the juvenile court of the county
of residence agrees to the transfer and the transferring juvenile court agrees to the
disposition. This bill applies the same venue law to a violation of a county, town or

municipal ordinance. The bill also eliminates the requirement that the transferring
juvenile court agree to the disposition of the juvenile court of the county of residence.
3. Juvenile court procedures. Under the current code, certain actions, such
as referring a case to the district attorney for the filing of a petition, filing a petition
and holding fact-finding, dispositional and extension hearings, must take place
within certain time limits. If a time limit is not met, the juvenile court may grant
a continuance, dismiss the petition with or without prejudice, release the juvenile
from secure or nonsecure custody or grant any other relief that the juvenile court
considers appropriate. This bill provides that failure to object to a time limit not
being met waives that time limit.
Under the current code, certain time periods are excluded in computing time
limits under the code. Those time periods include periods of delay resulting from
other legal actions concerning the juvenile, from a continuance or from the absence
or unavailability of the juvenile. This bill adds to the time periods that are excluded
in computing time limits under the code any period of delay resulting from juvenile
court congestion or scheduling.
Under the current code, information indicating that a juvenile should be
referred to the juvenile court as delinquent, in need of protection or services or in
violation of a civil law or municipal ordinance must be referred to the juvenile court
intake worker (intake worker) who must conduct an intake inquiry to determine
what action should be taken. Currently, an intake worker must recommend that a
petition be filed, enter into a deferred prosecution agreement or close the case within
40 days after receipt of the referral. This bill requires the intake worker to request,
rather than recommend, that a petition be filed.
Under the current code, if a deferred prosecution agreement is entered into, the
juvenile court may terminate the agreement upon the request of the juvenile, parent,
guardian or legal custodian. This bill permits a juvenile, parent, guardian or legal
custodian to terminate a deferred prosecution agreement, other than a deferred
prosecution agreement placing the juvenile in a youth village program, without
requesting the juvenile court to do so.
Under the current code, the district attorney, corporation counsel or other
appropriate official may refer a case back to the intake worker for further
investigation. This bill permits the district attorney, corporation counsel or other
appropriate official to refer a case directly back to the law enforcement agency
investigating the case.
Under the current code, subject to certain exceptions, the general public is
excluded from hearings under the code and the records of the juvenile court are not
open to inspection and their contents may not be disclosed. The current code,
however, permits the general public to attend a hearing and permits the records of
the juvenile court to be open for inspection by a requester if the hearing or records
relate to a juvenile who is alleged to be delinquent for committing an act that would
be a serious felony for purposes of increased penalties for repeat criminal offenders
(3 strikes and you're out), or for abducting another person's child or for conspiracy
to commit any violation. This bill eliminates public hearings and open records
relating to juveniles who are alleged to be delinquent for committing those violations

and instead provides for public hearings and open records relating to juveniles who
are alleged to have committed a delinquent act for which a juvenile may be placed
in the serious juvenile offender program, that is, a Class A or Class B felony if
committed by an adult. The bill also provides that if a public hearing is held, any
person may disclose to anyone any information obtained at the public hearing.
Under the current code, upon the request of the parent, guardian or legal
custodian of a juvenile who is the subject of a record of the juvenile court, or upon the
request of the juvenile, if 14 years of age or over, the juvenile court must open for
inspection by the parent, guardian, legal custodian or juvenile the records of the
juvenile court relating to the juvenile, unless the juvenile court finds that inspection
by the juvenile, parent, guardian or legal custodian would result in imminent danger
to the juvenile. Under the current code, on the written permission of the parent,
guardian or legal custodian of a juvenile who is the subject of a record of the juvenile
court, or on the written permission of the juvenile, if 14 years of age or over, the
juvenile court must open for inspection by the person named in the permission the
records of the juvenile court relating to the juvenile. This bill permits a juvenile court
to refuse to open its records to a person named in such a permission if the juvenile
court finds that inspection by the person named in the permission would result in
imminent danger to the juvenile.
Similarly, the current code permits the department of health and family
services (DHFS), a county department or a child welfare agency to open its records
relating to a juvenile, upon the request of the juvenile's parent, guardian or legal
custodian or upon the request of the juvenile, if 14 years of age or over, for inspection
by the parent, guardian, legal custodian or juvenile and to open its records relating
to a juvenile, on the written permission of the juvenile's parent, guardian or legal
custodian or on the written permission of the juvenile, if 14 years of age or over, for
inspection by the person named in the written permission. This bill permits DHFS,
a county department or a child welfare agency to refuse to open its records for
inspection under the circumstances described in this paragraph if that inspection
would result in imminent danger to the juvenile.
Under the current code, subject to certain exceptions, a juvenile and his or her
parent, guardian or legal custodian may request the substitution of a judge in a
proceeding under the code. The current code, however, prohibits a juvenile in a
delinquency proceeding and a juvenile and his or her parent, guardian or legal
custodian in a proceeding for a juvenile in need of protection or services under the
code from requesting the substitution of a judge if the juvenile, parent, guardian or
legal custodian has requested the substitution of a judge in a previous proceeding
under the code or if the judge assigned to the proceeding has entered a dispositional
order with respect to the juvenile in a previous proceeding under the code. This bill
also prohibits the substitution of a judge if the juvenile, parent, guardian or legal
custodian has requested the substitution of a judge in a previous proceeding under
the children's code or if the judge assigned to the proceeding has entered a
dispositional order with respect to the juvenile in a previous proceeding under the
children's code.

4. Sanctions. Under the current code, if a juvenile who has been adjudged
delinquent, to be in need of protection or services based on habitual truancy or to
have violated a civil law or municipal ordinance violates a condition of his or her
dispositional order, the juvenile court may impose certain sanctions on the juvenile.
Those sanctions include placement in a secure detention facility for not more than
10 days, suspension or limitation of the juvenile's operating privilege (driver's
license) for up to 3 years, home detention for not more than 30 days, with or without
electronic monitoring, and not more than 25 hours of community service work. This
bill permits a juvenile court to impose those sanctions on a juvenile adjudged to be
in need of protection or services for uncontrollability, truancy from home, being a
dropout, being under 10 years of age and committing a delinquent act or being not
responsible for a delinquent act by reason of mental disease or defect, if the juvenile
violates a condition of his or her dispositional order. The bill also specifies that the
juvenile court must find by a preponderance of the evidence that the juvenile has
violated a condition of his or her dispositional order before the juvenile court may
impose a sanction. Finally, the bill requires that, if the juvenile court orders secure
detention or home detention with electronic monitoring for a juvenile who has
violated a condition of a municipal court dispositional order, the juvenile court must
order the municipality of the municipal court to pay the county for the cost of
providing the secure detention or electronic monitoring.
5. Other. Under the current code, a juvenile who has been taken into custody
may be held in a secure detention facility if the intake worker determines that
certain conditions apply. One of those conditions is that probable cause exists to
believe that the juvenile has committed a delinquent act and presents a substantial
risk of physical harm to another person or of running away so as to be unavailable
for a court hearing or a revocation of aftercare hearing. Currently, for a juvenile on
aftercare supervision, that is, supervision following release from a secured
correctional facility, the delinquent act may be the act for which the juvenile was
adjudged delinquent. This bill provides that for all juveniles who have been
adjudged delinquent, not just juveniles on aftercare, the delinquent act may be the
act for which the juvenile was adjudged delinquent.
Under current law, effective July 1, 1996, if a child fails to pay restitution as
ordered by a juvenile court or municipal court or as agreed to in a deferred
prosecution agreement, or if it appears unlikely that the child will pay, the victim,
the victim's insurer, the district attorney, corporation counsel or municipal attorney
or the agency supervising the child under the dispositional order may petition the
juvenile court to order that the amount of restitution unpaid be entered and docketed
as a judgment against the child and the parent with custody of the child. This bill
provides that such an order is entered and docketed not only against the child and
parent, but also in favor of the victim or victim's insurer, or both. The bill also
provides that the rendering of a judgment for restitution does not bar the victim or
victim's insurer from commencing another action seeking compensation from the
child or parent, or both, if the amount of restitution ordered is less than the total
amount of damages claimed.

Similarly, if a child fails to pay a forfeiture, the amount of the forfeiture may be
entered and docketed as a judgment against the child and parent with custody of the
child. This bill provides that such an order is entered and docketed not only against
the child and parent, but also in favor of the county or appropriate municipality.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
