Status:
Killed

Chief Patron:
Mike Mullin (D)

Session:
2018 Regular Session

Summary

As Introduced. Pretrial appeal by the Commonwealth.

Allows an attorney for the Commonwealth to take a pretrial appeal on the constitutionality of an evidentiary ruling by a juvenile and domestic relations district court in a case in which a juvenile under the age of 14 is to be tried for an offense that would be a violent juvenile felony if committed by a juvenile 14 years of age or older. The bill provides that such appeal shall be heard by the circuit court. If the juvenile and domestic relations district court's ruling is affirmed, the attorney for the Commonwealth may appeal the circuit court's decision to the Court of Appeals, and such decision shall be final. If the circuit court finds that the juvenile and domestic relations court erred, the circuit court shall remand the case for trial consistent with the circuit court's ruling. (Less)
