SB 2142 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Juvenile Offenders - As introduced, deletes an obsolete statute requiring the administrative office of the courts, department of children's services, and the commission on children and youth to jointly submit a report on juvenile justice data collection by January 1, 2019. - Amends TCA Title 36; Title 37 and Title 39.

SB 2142 deletes an outdated requirement that previously mandated three Tennessee state agencies - the administrative office of the courts, department of children's services, and commission on children and youth - to jointly submit a report on juvenile justice data collection by January 1, 2019. This procedural bill removes a statute from Tennessee law that had no current application, as the reporting deadline passed years ago. The change affects only the agencies previously required to submit the report, with no new obligations or policy changes. The bill takes effect July 1, 2026, and is a routine cleanup of obsolete legal language.
