Youth records; authorize member of Legislature to inspect upon written release.

SB 2509 would have amended Mississippi law to allow members of the legislature to inspect certain youth court records when a parent, guardian, or custodian provides written consent. Currently, youth court records are confidential except under specific court orders or for certain agencies like child protection services. This bill created a new exception permitting legislative review of these records only with explicit, prior written permission from a child's parent or guardian. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, so it did not become law.
