MA S1081

Prohibits juvenile adjudications from being used as prior convictions to trigger enhanced mandatory minimum sentences for adults or juveniles under Massachusetts firearms laws (Chapter 269, Sections 10 and 10G)

Defines juvenile adjudications broadly to include delinquent child findings, youthful offender adjudications, out-of-state juvenile adjudications, and out-of-state adult convictions that would qualify as juvenile adjudications in Massachusetts

Eliminates mandatory minimum commitment periods for certain juvenile offenders by striking provisions from Chapter 119, Section 58

Requires retroactive resentencing for anyone currently serving a sentence, on probation, or on parole where a juvenile adjudication was used as a predicate conviction for sentence enhancement

Resentencing cannot result in increased committed time, probation, or parole beyond the original sentence
