SB 320 - Under current law, any juvenile under the age of 17 who has been certified as an adult may be detained in an adult jail prior to trial. This act prohibits the detention of any juvenile certified as an adult in an adult jail until the juvenile has been sentenced. Instead, the juvenile must be detained in a juvenile facility that adheres to current state standards. This act is substantially similar to HB 708 (2015). MEGHAN LUECKE
