Summary

Existing law requires each party demanding a jury trial to deposit advance jury fees in the amount of $150 with the clerk or judge. Existing law requires the court to transmit the advance jury fees to the State Treasury for deposit in the Trial Court Trust Fund within 45 calendar days after the end of the month in which the advance jury fees are deposited with the court. This bill would instead require that at least one party demanding a jury on each side of a civil case pay a nonrefundable fee of $150, unless the fee has been paid by another party on the same side of the case. The bill would make that fee due on or before the date scheduled for the initial case management conference in the action, except in specified circumstances. The bill would make related and conforming changes to those provisions. Existing law authorizes the juvenile court to retain jurisdiction over a ward of the court, until the ward attains 21 years of age, except in certain circumstances. Existing law further authorizes the court to retain jurisdiction over a ward who has committed specified serious offenses or other offenses requiring registration as a sex offender, until age 25, if committed to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities, or to a state hospital or mental health facility. Existing law also requires, on and after July 1, 2012, every person committed by the juvenile court to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities, by reason of committing specified offenses, to be discharged after a 2-year period of control, or when that person reaches 23 years of age, whichever occurs later, except as specified. This bill would remove specified offenses requiring registration as a sex offender from those provisions that allow the court, in certain circumstances, to retain jurisdiction over a ward until that person attains either 25 years of age or 23 years of age. The bill would state that these changes apply retroactively. Existing law authorizes the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to develop and implement a system of graduated sanctions for wards that distinguishes between minor, intermediate, and serious misconduct. Existing law further requires the department to promulgate regulations to implement a table of sanctions to be used in determining discharge consideration date extensions. Existing law also authorizes the department to extend a ward's discharge consideration date, subject to appeal, to not more than 12 months, for a sustained serious misconduct violation if all other sanctioning options have been considered and determined to be unsuitable in light of the previous case history and circumstances of the misconduct. This bill would delete the above provision requiring the department to promulgate regulations to implement a table of sanctions, in certain circumstances. The bill would also revise the above provision regarding a ward's discharge to instead prohibit the department from extending a ward's discharge consideration date for incidents occurring after September 1, 2012. The bill would appropriate $1,000 from the General Fund to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for administration. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget Bill.
