 22        8-705.  WAGE  ASSIGNMENT  FOR SUPPORT AND CARE OF DELINQUENT CHILD. In any
 23    proceeding where the court has ordered a parent, legal guardian, or  custodian
 24    to  pay any amount for the care, support or maintenance of a child adjudged to
 25    be within the purview of chapter 185, title 1620, Idaho Code, and through  the
 26    adjudication  has rendered a liability upon the parent, legal guardian or cus-
 27    todian to pay damages or to pay for the child's support and care, the  follow-
 28    ing  procedure may be utilized for collection. The court may order the parent,
 29    legal guardian or custodian to assign a sum as the court may determine  to  be
 30    equitable or as may otherwise be provided by statute or contract to the county
 31    clerk, probation officer or other office of the court or county officer desig-
 32    nated by the court to receive such payment.  The assignment shall be that por-
 33    tion  of  salary or wages of the parent, legal guardian or custodian the court
 34    deems would be due in the future to apply on the amount ordered by  the  court
 35    for  the care, support or maintenance of the delinquent child or for breach of
 36    contract caused by the child's delinquency. The order shall be binding upon an
 37    employer and until further order of the court. Any such order may be  modified
 38    or  revoked  at  any  time  by the court. Any such assignment made pursuant to
 39    court order shall have priority as against any attachment, execution or  other
 40    assignment, unless otherwise ordered by the court. All sums collected pursuant
 41    to the provisions of this section shall be remitted as may be provided by law.
                                                                        
 42        SECTION  2.  That  Section 18-113B, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby

  1    amended to read as follows:

  6    may, in the discretion of a court  or arresting officer, be placed in a  juve-
  7    nile  detention  facility  or  juvenile shelter care facility rather than in a
  8    county jail pending arraignment or trial, if arrested or  held  on  bond.  The
  9    option  of  placing  a juvenile in such a facility shall not affect the misde-
 10    meanor or felony status of the offense.
 11        (2)  Juveniles committing offenses which lie  outside  the  scope  of  the
 12    youth rehabilitation juvenile corrections act, chapter 185, title 1620,  Idaho
 13    Code,  and  not charged under section 16-1806 20-508 or 16-1806A 20-509, Idaho
 14    Code, may, in the discretion of the court, be sentenced:

 18        minimum period of incarceration is not required by statute.

 20    misdemeanor or felony status of the offense.
                                                                        
 21        SECTION  3.  That  Section  18-216, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby
 22    amended to read as follows:
                                                                        
 23        18-216.  CRIMINAL TRIAL OF JUVENILES BARRED  --  EXCEPTIONS  --  JURISDIC-
 24    TIONAL  HEARING -- TRANSFER OF DEFENDANT TO DISTRICT COURT. (1) A person shall
 25    not be tried for or convicted of an offense if:
 26        (a)  At the time of the conduct charged to constitute the offense  he  was
 27        less than fourteen (14) years of age; or
 28        (b)  At  the  time of the conduct charged to constitute the offense he was
 29        less than eighteen (18) but not less than  fourteen  (14)  years  of  age,

 31             1.  A  court  of  this state has no jurisdiction over him pursuant to
 32             chapter 185, title 1620, Idaho Code, or
 33             2.  The court having jurisdiction  pursuant  to  chapter  185,  title
 34             1620,  Idaho Code, has entered an order waiving jurisdiction and con-
 35             senting to the institution of criminal proceedings against him.
 36        (2)  No court shall have jurisdiction to try or convict  a  person  of  an
 37    offense  if  criminal  proceedings against him are barred by subsection (1) of
 38    this section. When it appears that a person charged with the commission of  an
 39    offense  may  be  of such an age that criminal proceedings may be barred under
 40    subsection (1) of this section, the court shall hold a  hearing  thereon,  and
 41    the burden shall be on the prosecution to establish to the satisfaction of the
 42    court  that  the  criminal  proceeding is not barred upon such grounds. If the
 43    court determines that the proceeding is barred, custody of the person  charged
 44    shall be surrendered to the court having jurisdiction pursuant to chapter 185,
 45    title  1620,    Idaho  Code,  and the case, including all papers and processes
 46    relating thereto, shall be transferred.
                                                                        
 47        SECTION 4.  That Section 18-1502B, Idaho Code, be, and the same is  hereby
 48    amended to read as follows:

 21    amended to read as follows:
                                                                        
 22        33-207.  PROCEEDINGS  AGAINST  PARENTS  OR GUARDIANS. Whenever it has been

 33        33-1404.  DISTRICTS TO RECEIVE PUPILS. Every school district shall receive
 34    and  admit pupils transferred thereto, where payment of their tuition is to be
 35    paid by the home district, or waived by the receiving  district,  except  when
 36    any  such  transfer  would  work  a  hardship  on the receiving district. Each

  9    trict of such pupils. In all other cases, the creditor district may submit  to
 10    the  parent  or guardian of any nonresident pupil attending school in its dis-
 11    trict a bill of tuition of such pupil, and such parent or  guardian  shall  be
 12    liable  for  the  payment of said tuition, if so billed. Tuition reimbursement
 13    for nonresident pupils who are placed by court order under provisions  of  the
 14    Idaho  youth  rehabilitation juvenile corrections or child protective acts may
 15    be obtained by the creditor district through procedures established in section

 21    certificate.

 13        of another person, his release prior to becoming sixteen (16) years of age
 14        may be conditioned upon the consent of his parent or guardian, or
 15        (3)  if the director of the facility determines that the patient should be
 16        hospitalized  under  the  provisions  of  this chapter, the patient may be

Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                         STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                              RS 13561

This bill amends various sections of the Idaho Code to correct outdated 
references to the Youth Rehabilitation Act, which formerly covered 
offenses committed by juveniles.

The Youth Rehabilitation Act was superseded in its entirety and replaced 
by the Juvenile Corrections Act in 1995.  Present references to the 
obsolete Youth Rehabilitation Act in various sections of the Idaho Code 
cause confusion and should be corrected to reflect the Juvenile Corrections 
Act.

                               FISCAL NOTE

This bill implements clerical changes and will not affect the state general 
fund or local funds.
