SF 328: Relating to the modification of a bridge order issued pursuant to a previous child in need of assistance case

Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on April 19, 2024. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill relates to the ability of a juvenile court to close a child in need of assistance (CINA) case by transferring jurisdiction through modification of a bridge order issued pursuant to a previous CINA case. Under current law, a juvenile court may close a CINA case by issuing a bridge order that would transfer jurisdiction to the district court. If the child is subject to a subsequent CINA case, the juvenile court is required to issue a new order for the case and the court would have to rescind the previous bridge order.
