A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
 
AN ACT
  relating to the testing of a juvenile for a sexually transmitted
  disease or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) following the filing
  of a petition and a finding of probable cause that the juvenile has
  engaged in certain delinquent conduct.
         BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
         SECTION 1.  Section 54.033(a), Family Code, is amended to
  read as follows:
         (a)  If a petition is filed alleging that a [A] child has
  [found at the conclusion of an adjudication hearing under Section
  54.03 of this code to have] engaged in delinquent conduct that
  included a violation of Sections 21.11(a)(1), 22.011, or 22.021,
  Penal Code, and the juvenile court finds probable cause that the
  child engaged in the conduct, the child shall undergo a medical
  procedure or test at the direction of the juvenile court designed to
  show or help show whether the child has a sexually transmitted
  disease, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), human
  immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, antibodies to HIV, or
  infection with any other probable causative agent of AIDS. The
  court may direct the child to undergo the procedure or test on the
  court's own motion or on the request of the victim of the delinquent
  conduct.
         SECTION 2.  The changes in law made by this Act apply only to
  a petition filed or a finding of probable cause made by a juvenile
  court on or after the effective date of this Act. A petition filed
  or finding of probable cause by a juvenile court that occurs before
  the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in effect when
  the petition was filed or the finding of probable cause was made,
  and the former law is continued in effect for that purpose.
         SECTION 3.  This Act takes effect September 1, 2015.
