  4  2                           EXPLANATION
  4  3    This bill provides that the offenses of public intoxication
  4  4 and possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages are
  4  5 excluded from the jurisdiction of the juvenile court and makes
  4  6 related conforming changes.  Minors who commit those offenses
  4  7 will be prosecuted as adults.
  4  8    The bill also provides that school officials are to be
  4  9 notified by a juvenile court officer or a peace officer when a
  4 10 minor is taken into custody for an alleged delinquent act
  4 11 which would be an indictable offense if committed by an adult.
  4 12 Currently, school officials are notified by a juvenile court
  4 13 officer of a minor's adjudication for an act which would be an
  4 14 indictable offense if committed by an adult.
  4 15    The bill may contain a state mandate under chapter 25B.  A
  4 16 political subdivision is not required to comply with a mandate
  4 17 contained in this bill unless an appropriation is made under
  4 18 section 25B.2, subsection 3, fully or proportionately funding
  4 19 the cost of the mandate.
