SB 91-DETENTION OF MINORS
6:25:33 PM
CHAIR SHOWER announced the consideration of SENATE BILL NO. 91
"An Act relating to the duties of the commissioner of
corrections; relating to the detention of minors; relating to
minors subject to adult courts; relating to the placement of
minors in adult correctional facilities; and providing for an
effective date."
[CSSB 91(HSS) was before the committee.]
6:26:12 PM
At ease
6:27:04 PM
CHAIR SHOWER reconvened the meeting and moved Conceptual
Amendment 1 to SB 91.
CONCEPTUAL AMENDMENT 1
Adds a new Section 1 that amends AS 18.85.100(a) by
inserting "or at a review hearing under AS
47.12.105(f)" following "Child in Need of Aid Rules".
Renumber subsequent sections.
He read subsection (a) with the new language.
SENATOR HOLLAND objected for discussion purposes.
6:28:22 PM
CHAIR SHOWER asked Ms. Meade for an explanation and why it was
requested.
6:28:29 PM
NANCY MEADE, General Counsel, Administrative Staff, Office of
the Administrative Director, Alaska Court System, Juneau,
Alaska, described the proposed amendment as somewhat conforming.
She directed attention to page 8, lines 25 and 26 of CSSB
91(HSS), version I. It is the provision about minors who have
been waived into adult court. She explained that if the judge
determined that the minor should be held in an adult
correctional facility, the minor is entitled to a review hearing
every 30 days to make sure they still need to be held in an
adult facility. Lines 25 and 26 say the minor is entitled to
counsel at the review hearing and the amendment clarifies who
provides that counsel. It authorizes the public defender to do
what the bill says a waived minor is entitled to have.
6:30:52 PM
CHAIR SHOWER asked if this had been discussed with the public
defender.
MS. MEADE confirmed that the public defender had no opposition,
and the sponsor and administration were aware of this.
6:31:31 PM
SENATOR HOLLAND withdrew his objection.
CHAIR SHOWER found no further objection and Conceptual Amendment
1 passed. Finding no further comments or questions, he solicited
a motion.
6:32:03 PM
SENATOR REINBOLD moved to report SB 91 as amended, work order
[32-GS1576\I] as amended, from committee with individual
recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
6:32:43 PM
CHAIR SHOWER found no objection and CSSB 91(STA) was reported
from the Senate State Affairs Standing Committee.
