SB 288
(Leftwich/Paulk): Toughens state laws against juvenile
lawbreakers. The bill authorizes municipal conviction
records of minors, convicted of a host of crimes, opened for
public inspection. Also, provided in the bill is the
provision for those minors sentenced to community service
authorizing the court to fine the minor's parent or guardian
who "knew or should have known" that the youth failed to
perform his community service. The parent or guardian may be
fined an amount equal to the number of incomplete community
service hours multiplied by the hourly minimum
wage.
