The bill would amend the Family Code to prohibit a juvenile court from modifying the disposition of a child on probation to order placement of the child in a juvenile facility based solely on a finding the child engaged in non-criminal conduct, unless the conduct indicates the child may be a danger to themselves or threaten public safety.

Based on the analysis of the Office of Court Administration and the Juvenile Justice Department, it is assumed that duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the bill could be accomplished utilizing available resources. In addition, no significant fiscal impact to the state court system is anticipated with the implementation of the bill.
