Summary

The bill lets counties with at least 6 million residents assign many juvenile‑court responsibilities—like supervising probation, running juvenile halls, and making court recommendations—to a county youth‑development official. It also tightens who may view a juvenile’s case file, how long confidential information is kept, and requires courts to promptly inform a minor’s public‑school officials when the minor is convicted of certain offenses. The changes aim to improve coordination while protecting the privacy of young people.
