A bill for an act relating to parent, legal guardian, and legal custodian attendance in court-ordered classes due to the actions of the parent’s, legal guardian’s, or legal custodian’s child, and providing penalties.

Summary

The bill orders that when a juvenile court mandates a child to attend a class as part of a delinquency disposition, the child's parent, legal guardian, or custodian must also attend. Failure to do so is a criminal offense with escalating misdemeanor penalties, though a good‑faith affidavit can shield a parent from liability. It does not apply to non‑custodial parents or to guardians/custodians that are not individuals.
