Suspend deadlines for the further consideration of HB 938; extend repealers on several youth court statutes.
This bill pauses the legislative deadlines for House Bill 938, which would extend the expiration of several laws related to youth court operations in Mississippi. The underlying act aims to keep in place rules about sharing youth court records, requiring intake officers to enter data into a state system, maintaining youth court support funding, and restricting access to that system for individuals convicted of sex offenses. It also extends a provision allowing parents to delegate child care powers to another person. By suspending these deadlines, the bill ensures that these specific policy changes can be fully considered and passed before they expire.
