Summary

Existing law provides that a person who is under 18 years of age and who commits a crime is within the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, as specified. If the juvenile court declares a person to be a ward of the court, the court issues an order with the disposition of the case. Under existing law, the court may, in some cases, commit the ward to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities. Existing law prohibits a court from committing a ward to the Division of Juvenile Facilities under certain conditions unless the ward's most recent admitted or adjudicated offense is a specified serious or violent offense or a sex offense. This bill would expand the class of persons who may be committed to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities to include a ward who has committed a specified sex offense, or who was previously found to have committed a specified serious or violent offense or a specified sex offense. Additionally, this bill would authorize the chief of the Division of Juvenile Facilities to enter into contracts with counties for the Division of Juvenile Facilities to provide housing to a ward who was in the custody of the Division of Juvenile Facilities on December 12, 2011, and whose commitment was recalled under specific circumstances. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
