"Section 1. Section
8-321, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended to read:
START_STATUTE8-321. Referrals; diversions; conditions;
community based alternative programs
A. Except as provided in
subsection B of this section, before a petition is filed or an admission or
adjudication hearing is held, the county attorney may divert the prosecution of
a juvenile who is accused of committing a delinquent act or a child who is
accused of committing an incorrigible act to a community based alternative
program or to a diversion program administered by the juvenile court.
B. A juvenile is not
eligible for diversion if any of the following apply to the juvenile applies:
1. The juvenile committed a dangerous offense as
defined in section 13‑105.
2. The juvenile is a chronic felony offender as
defined in section 13‑501.
3. The juvenile committed an offense that is
listed in section 13‑501.
4. The juvenile is alleged to have committed a
violation of section 28‑1381, 28‑1382 or 28-1383.
5. The juvenile is alleged to have committed an
offense involving the purchase, possession or consumption of spirituous liquor
or a violation of title 13, chapter 34 and the juvenile has previously
participated in a community based alternative program or a diversion program
administered by the juvenile court at least two times within twenty‑four
months before the date of the commission of the alleged offense.
C. Except as provided in
section 8‑323, the county attorney has sole discretion to decide whether
to divert or defer prosecution of a juvenile offender. The county attorney may
designate the offenses that shall be retained by the juvenile court for
diversion or that shall be referred directly to a community based alternative
program that is authorized by the
county attorney.
D. The county attorney or
the juvenile court in cooperation with the county attorney may establish
community based alternative programs.
E. Except for offenses
that the county attorney designates as eligible for diversion or referral to a
community based alternative program, on receipt of a referral alleging the
commission of an offense, the juvenile probation officer shall submit the
referral to the county attorney to determine if a petition should be filed.
F. If the county attorney
diverts the prosecution of a juvenile to the juvenile court, the juvenile
probation officer shall conduct a personal interview with the alleged juvenile
offender. At least one of the juvenile's parents or guardians shall attend the
interview. The probation officer may waive the requirement for the attendance
of the parent or guardian for good cause. If the juvenile acknowledges
responsibility for the delinquent or incorrigible act, the juvenile probation
officer shall require that the juvenile comply with one or more of the
following conditions:
1. Participation in
unpaid community restitution work.
2. Participation in a
counseling program that is approved by the court and that is designed to
strengthen family relationships and to prevent repetitive juvenile delinquency.
3. Participation in an
education program that is approved by the court and that has as its goal the

4. Participation in an
education program that is approved by the court and that is designed to deal

5. Participation in a
nonresidential program of rehabilitation or supervision that is offered by the
court or offered by a community youth serving agency and approved by the court.
6. Payment of restitution
to the victim of the delinquent act.
7. Payment of a monetary
assessment.
G. If the juvenile
successfully complies with the conditions set forth by the probation officer,
the county attorney shall not file a petition in juvenile court and the
program's resolution shall not be used against the juvenile in any further
proceeding and is not an adjudication of incorrigibility or delinquency. The
resolution of the program is not a conviction of crime, does not impose any
civil disabilities ordinarily resulting from a conviction and does not
disqualify the juvenile in any civil service application or appointment.
H. In order to
participate in a community based alternative program the juvenile who is referred
to a program shall admit responsibility for the essential elements of the
accusation and shall cooperate with the program in all of its proceedings.
I. All of the following
apply to each community based alternative program that is established pursuant
to this section:
1. The juvenile's
participation is voluntary.

the participants in the community based alternative program may agree on any
legally reasonable consequences that the participants determine are necessary
to fully and fairly resolve the matter except confinement.

alternative program, and the juvenile shall complete the consequences within
ninety days after the matter is referred to the community based alternative
program. The county attorney or the juvenile probation officer may extend the
time in which to complete the consequences for good cause. If the community
based alternative program involves a school, the deadlines for determination
and completion of consequences shall be thirty and ninety school days,
respectively.
L. The community based
alternative program, the juvenile, the juvenile's parent or guardian and the
victim may sign a written contract in which the parties agree to the program's
resolution of the matter and in which the juvenile's parent or guardian agrees
to ensure that the juvenile complies with the contract. The contract may
provide that the parent or guardian shall post a bond payable to this state to
secure the performance of any consequence imposed on the juvenile pursuant to
subsection J of this section.
M. If the juvenile
successfully completes the consequences, the county attorney shall not file a
petition in juvenile court and the program's resolution shall not be used
against the juvenile in any further proceeding and is not an adjudication of
incorrigibility or delinquency. The resolution of the program is not a
conviction of crime, does not impose any civil disabilities ordinarily
resulting from a conviction and does not disqualify the juvenile in any civil
service application or appointment.
N. The county attorney or
juvenile court shall assess the parent of a juvenile who is diverted pursuant
to subsection A of this section a fee of fifty dollars unless, after
determining the inability of the parent to pay the fee, the county attorney or
juvenile court assesses a lesser amount. All monies assessed
pursuant to this subsection shall be used for the administration and support of
community based alternative programs or juvenile court diversion programs. Any
amount greater than forty dollars of the fee assessed pursuant to this
subsection shall only be used to supplement monies currently used for the
salaries of juvenile probation and surveillance officers and for support of
programs and services of the superior court juvenile probation departments.
The clerk of the superior court shall pay all monies collected from this
assessment to the county treasurer for deposit in the juvenile probation fund,
to be utilized as provided in section 12‑268, and the county attorney
shall pay all monies collected from this assessment into the county attorney
juvenile diversion fund established by section 11‑537.
O. The supreme court
shall annually establish an average cost per juvenile for providing diversion
services in each county, based on the monies appropriated for diversion
pursuant to section 8‑322, excluding the cost of juvenile intake services
provided by the juvenile court, and the number of juveniles diverted the
previous year. On the county attorney's certification to the supreme court of
the number of juveniles diverted to a county attorney community based
alternative program each quarter, the annual average cost per juvenile for each
juvenile diverted shall be reimbursed to the county attorney juvenile diversion
fund established by section 11‑537 out of monies appropriated to the
supreme court for diversion programs.
P. If the juvenile does
not acknowledge responsibility for the offense, or fails to comply with the
consequences set by the community based alternative program, the case shall be
submitted to the county attorney for review.
Q. After reviewing a
referral, if the county attorney declines prosecution, the county attorney may
return the case to the juvenile probation department for further action as
provided in subsection F of this section. END_STATUTE

and the portion of wages of either existing or provided work that is to be
credited toward satisfaction of the restitution or assessment, or the nature of
the work to be performed and the number of hours to be spent working. The
number of hours to be spent working shall be set by the court based on the

and the county attorney of the county from which the juvenile was committed.
N. Notwithstanding any
law to the contrary, if a person is under the supervision of the court as an
adjudicated delinquent juvenile at the time the person reaches eighteen years
of age, treatment services may be provided until the person reaches twenty‑one
years of age if the court, the person and the state agree to the provision of
the treatment and a motion to transfer the person pursuant to section 8‑327
has not been filed or has been withdrawn. The court may terminate the
provision of treatment services after the person reaches eighteen years of age

immunodeficiency virus. If the victim is a minor the prosecuting attorney
shall file this petition at the request of the victim's parent or guardian. If

would be a sexual offense or the court determines that sufficient evidence
exists to indicate that significant exposure occurred, it shall order the
department of juvenile corrections or the department of health services to test
the juvenile pursuant to section 13‑1415. Notwithstanding any law to the
contrary, the department of juvenile corrections and the department of health

pertinent information. If a juvenile has been committed to the department of
juvenile corrections the department shall provide the fingerprints and
information required by this subsection to the Arizona automated fingerprint
identification system. If the juvenile's fingerprints and information have
been previously submitted to the Arizona automated fingerprint identification
system the information is not required to be resubmitted.
Q. Access to fingerprint
records submitted pursuant to subsection P of this section shall be limited to
the administration of criminal justice as defined in section 41‑1750.
Dissemination of fingerprint information shall be limited to the name of the
juvenile, juvenile case number, date of adjudication and court of adjudication.

adjudicated delinquent for a violation of section 13‑1602, subsection A,
paragraph 5, the court shall order the juvenile to pay a fine of at least three
hundred dollars but not more than one thousand dollars. Any restitution
ordered shall be paid in accordance with section 13‑809, subsection A.
The court may order the juvenile to perform community restitution in lieu of
the payment for all or part of the fine if it is in the best interests of the
juvenile. The amount of community restitution shall be equivalent to the
amount of the fine by crediting any service performed at a rate of ten dollars
per hour. If the juvenile is convicted of a second or subsequent violation of
section 13-1602, subsection A, paragraph 5 and is ordered to perform community
restitution, the court may order the parent or guardian of the juvenile to
assist the juvenile in the performance of the community restitution if both of

knowingly provided the juvenile with the means to engage in the conduct that
gave rise to the violation.
T. If a juvenile is adjudicated delinquent for an
offense involving the purchase, possession or consumption of spirituous liquor
or a violation of title 13, chapter 34 and is placed on juvenile probation, the
court may order the juvenile to submit to random drug and alcohol testing at
least two times per week as a condition of probation.
U. A juvenile who is adjudicated delinquent for
an offense involving the purchase, possession or consumption of spirituous
liquor or a violation of title 13, chapter 34, who is placed on juvenile
probation and who is found to have consumed any spirituous liquor or to have
used any drug listed in section 13‑3401 while on probation is in
violation of the juvenile's probation. A juvenile who commits a
third or subsequent violation of a condition of probation as prescribed by this
subsection shall be brought before the juvenile court and, if the allegations
are proven, the court shall either revoke probation and hold a disposition
hearing pursuant to this section or select additional conditions of probation
as it deems necessary, including detention, global position system monitoring,
additional alcohol or drug treatment, community restitution, additional drug or
alcohol testing or a monetary assessment.

I of the crime control act of 1973, and to all agencies that interact with or
receive criminal justice information from or through the central state
repository and through the Arizona criminal justice information system.

section does not apply to criminal history record information contained in:
1. Posters,
arrest warrants, announcements or lists for identifying or apprehending
fugitives or wanted persons.

administrative proceedings.
4. Announcements
of executive clemency or pardon.

T. Nothing
in this section prevents a criminal justice agency from disclosing to the
public criminal history record information that is reasonably contemporaneous
to the event for which an individual is currently within the criminal justice
system, including information noted on traffic accident reports concerning
citations, blood alcohol tests, intoxilyzer tests or arrests made in connection
with the traffic accident being investigated.
U. In
order to ensure that complete and accurate criminal history record information
is maintained and disseminated by the central state repository:
1. The
arresting authority shall take legible fingerprints of all persons arrested for
offenses specified in subsection C of this section and, within ten days of the
arrest, the arresting authority shall forward the fingerprints to the
department in the manner or form required by the department. On the issuance
and service of a summons for a defendant who is charged with a felony offense,
a violation of title 13, chapter 14 or title 28, chapter 4 or a domestic
violence offense as defined in section 13‑3601, the court shall order
that the defendant be fingerprinted by the appropriate law enforcement agency
and that the defendant appear at a designated time and place for
fingerprinting. At the initial appearance or on the arraignment of a summoned
defendant who is charged with a felony offense, a violation of title 13,
chapter 14 or title 28, chapter 4 or a domestic violence offense as defined in
section 13‑3601, the court shall order that the defendant be
fingerprinted at a designated time and place by the appropriate law enforcement
agency if the court has reasonable cause to believe that the defendant was not
previously fingerprinted.
2. In
every criminal case in which the defendant is incarcerated or fingerprinted as
a result of the charge, an originating law enforcement agency or prosecutor,
within forty days of the disposition, shall advise the central state repository
of all dispositions concerning the termination of criminal proceedings against
an individual arrested for an offense specified in subsection C of this
section. This information shall be submitted on a form or in a manner required
by the department.
3. Dispositions
resulting from formal proceedings in a court having jurisdiction in a criminal
action against an individual who is arrested for an offense specified in
subsection C of this section or section 8‑341, subsection T V
shall be reported to the central state repository within forty
days of the date of the disposition. This information shall be
submitted on a form or in a manner specified by rules approved by the supreme
court.
4. The state department of corrections or the department of
juvenile corrections, within forty days, shall advise the central state
repository that it has assumed supervision of a person convicted of an offense
specified in subsection C of this section or section 8‑341, subsection T V. The state department of corrections or
the department of juvenile corrections shall also report dispositions that
occur thereafter to the central state repository within forty days of the date
of the dispositions. This information shall be submitted on a form
or in a manner required by the department of public safety.
5. Each
criminal justice agency shall query the central state repository before
dissemination of any criminal history record information to ensure the
completeness of the information. Inquiries shall be made before any
dissemination except in those cases in which time is of the essence and the
repository is technically incapable of responding within the necessary time
period. If time is of the essence, the inquiry shall still be made
and the response shall be provided as soon as possible.
V. The director shall adopt rules specifying that any agency
that collects, stores or disseminates criminal justice information that is
subject to this section shall establish effective security measures to protect
the information from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification or
dissemination. The rules shall include reasonable safeguards to protect the
affected information systems from fire, flood, wind, theft, sabotage or other
natural or man‑made hazards or disasters.
W. The
department shall make available to agencies that contribute to, or receive
criminal justice information from, the central state repository or through the
Arizona criminal justice information system a continuing training program in
the proper methods for collecting, storing and disseminating information in
compliance with this section.
