	SECTION __.  Section 51.08, Family Code, is amended by 
adding Subsection (e) to read as follows:
	(e)  A juvenile court may not refuse to accept the transfer 
of a case brought under Section 25.094, Education Code, for a child 
described by Subsection (b)(1) if a prosecuting attorney for the 
court determines under Section 53.012 that the case is legally 
sufficient under Section 53.01 for adjudication in juvenile court.
	(2)  On page 7, line 10, strike "The change" and substitute

before the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in 
effect when the transfer occurred, and the former law is continued 
in effect for that purpose.
