HB 834 North Carolina House · 2023-2024 Session

Juvenile Justice Modifications.

This bill modifies North Carolina law to change the deadline for prosecutors to request a review of decisions not to file juvenile delinquency petitions. Currently, prosecutors must act within five calendar days, but the amendment extends this timeframe to ten working days unless the district attorney waives the extension. The change directly affects the procedural timeline for prosecutors, complainants, and victims involved in juvenile cases by allowing more time to evaluate whether a petition should be filed. This adjustment aims to provide additional time for prosecutors to assess cases before the review process concludes.
