An Act amending Titles 18 (Crimes and Offenses) and 42 (Judiciary and Judicial Procedure) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in burglary and other criminal intrusion, further providing for burglary; in robbery, further providing for robbery; and, in juvenile matters, further providing for definitions, for inspection of court files and records, for conduct of hearings and for transfer to criminal proceedings.

HB 2203 amends Pennsylvania law to increase penalties for burglary and robbery involving controlled substances, designer drugs, or firearms, classifying these as first-degree felonies. It also revises juvenile court definitions by removing certain serious offenses - like first-degree robbery and burglary - from "delinquent act" status when committed by juveniles aged 15+ with prior adjudications. This means juveniles aged 15+ who commit these specific crimes (e.g., stealing drugs/firearms) will now face transfer to adult criminal court instead of juvenile proceedings. The bill directly affects juvenile offenders in cases involving these high-level offenses and alters sentencing classifications under Titles 18 and 42.
