CA SB1004

Authorizes five counties (Alameda, Butte, Napa, Nevada, and Santa Clara) to establish pilot programs allowing defendants aged 18-20 to participate in deferred entry of judgment in county juvenile halls instead of adult jails for eligible felony offenses.

Requires eligible defendants to plead guilty, waive speedy trial rights, and meet criteria including no prior violent felony convictions, no sex offender registration requirement, and demonstrated ability to benefit from rehabilitative services such as cognitive behavioral therapy and education programs.

Mandates probation departments develop reentry service plans and submit effectiveness data to the Department of Justice, while limiting participation to no more than one year in custody and requiring complete separation between program participants and minors in the facility.

Establishes county multidisciplinary teams to oversee program implementation and requires Board of State and Community Corrections approval of facilities and evaluation of program outcomes, with results submitted to legislative public safety committees.

Sunsets the pilot program on January 1, 2020, unless extended by subsequent legislation.
