If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes related to the juvenile court by updating the language regarding the release of information. Specifically, it would change the phrasing in two sections: in subsection C, the phrase "for the purpose of assisting" would be replaced with "to assist," clarifying the intent of the information release to aid in decisions regarding custody, bond, and pretrial supervision. Similarly, in subsection D, the phrase "for the purpose of determining" would be replaced with "to determine," streamlining the language related to the release of information concerning individuals under eighteen who have been transferred from juvenile court for criminal prosecution.

Additionally, the bill would modify subsection H by changing "rights" to "rights" and deleting "rights" from the phrase "family educational rights and privacy rights act of 1974." This adjustment aims to ensure compliance with federal regulations regarding the disclosure of educational records. Overall, these changes are intended to enhance clarity and precision in the juvenile court's information-sharing processes.
