JUVENILES -- Amends existing law to provide for a juvenile probation fee.

JUVENILES

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The Idaho Juvenile Corrections Act allows the court to place juvenile offenders on probation for up to three years. In some cases judges have ordered juvenile offenders to pay a probation supervision fee for the time the offender is on probation. Currently there is no statutory fee for juvenile probation; however, some counties have been collecting court ordered juvenile probation fees through Odyssey. Judges and counties were notified in November that effective June 2019, Odyssey would no longer be configured to allow court orderedjuvenileprobationfeestobecollected. Asaresult,countieswouldberequiredtocreatenewtracking and collection portals outside of Odyssey. The proposed legislation amends Section 20-520, Idaho Code to establish a statutory juvenile probation supervision fee to be paid to the clerk of the court, amends Section 19-4708, Idaho Code, to allow for the collection of debts owed by juvenile offenders to the court, and Section 20-529, Idaho Code, to specify that revenues from juvenile probation fees are to be used exclusively for county juvenile probation services.
