AZ HB2671

Establishes that juveniles 15 years or older who are "chronic felony offenders" (defined as having two or more prior felony adjudications) must be prosecuted as adults in criminal court for subsequent felony offenses

Repeals section 8-327 of Arizona Revised Statutes, which previously governed juvenile court transfer procedures to adult court

Expands adult court jurisdiction over juveniles by amending section 13-501, requiring prosecution as adults for chronic felony offenders and certain serious offenses committed by juveniles 14 years or older

Modifies juvenile detention provisions to reference the updated transfer statute (section 13-501 instead of repealed section 8-327) for determining where juveniles charged as adults may be held

Updates multiple cross-references throughout juvenile and criminal statutes (sections 8-201, 8-202, 8-305, 8-341, 13-610, 13-1206, 13-3967, and 36-520) to reflect the consolidation of juvenile transfer provisions under section 13-501
