      Sec. 46b-151b. (Formerly Sec. 17-76a). Amendment to compact concerning interstate rendition of juveniles alleged to be delinquent. The Governor is authorized and directed to execute, with any other state or states legally joining in the same, an amendment to the Interstate Compact on Juveniles in the form substantially as follows:

AMENDMENT TO THE INTERSTATE COMPACT ON
JUVENILES CONCERNING INTERSTATE RENDITION
OF JUVENILES ALLEGED TO BE DELINQUENT
      (a) This amendment shall provide additional remedies and shall be binding only as among and between those party states which specifically execute the same.

      (b) All provisions and procedures of articles V and VI of section 46b-151a shall be construed to apply to any juvenile charged with being a delinquent by reason of a violation of any criminal law. Any juvenile charged with being a delinquent by reason of violating any criminal law shall be returned to the requesting state upon a requisition to the state where the juvenile may be found. A petition in such case shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction in the requesting state where the violation of criminal law is alleged to have been committed. The petition may be filed regardless of whether the juvenile has left the state before or after the filing of the petition. The requisition described in article V of section 46b-151a shall be forwarded by the judge of the court in which the petition has been filed.

      (P.A. 83-281, S. 1, 2; P.A. 91-406, S. 19, 29; P.A. 03-255, S. 5.) Repealed effective July 1, 2004, or upon enactment of the Interstate Compact for Juveniles by thirty-five jurisdictions, whichever is later.

      History: Sec. 17-76a transferred to Sec. 46b-151b in 1991; P.A. 91-406 confirmed the numbering of this section as Sec. 46b-151b, thereby correcting a typographical error; P.A. 03-255 repealed section, effective July 1, 2004, or upon enactment of the Interstate Compact for Juveniles by thirty-five jurisdictions, whichever is later.
