IN RE: | HB776 by Dutton (Relating to the delivery of a child taken into custody under the juvenile justice system to a school official.), As Engrossed |
The bill would amend Family Code, Section 52.02(a) by adding the provision that a person taking a child into custody may bring the child to the school campus to which the child is assigned if school is in session and the principal, the principal's designee or a peace officer assigned to the campus agrees to assume responsibility for the child the remainder of the school day. The Juvenile Probation Commission reports no fiscal impact if this bill is enacted.
