MI HB5324

Changes definition of "department" from Family Independence Agency to Department of Health and Human Services in the Juvenile Facilities Act.

Requires the department or county juvenile agency to conduct pre-sentencing investigations for juveniles committed to facilities pending trial, examining the juvenile's antecedents, character, and circumstances.

Mandates pre-sentencing reports include evaluation of community adjustment prospects, recommendation on whether juvenile is better suited for adult or juvenile programs, and recommendation on disposition serving public welfare and safety.

Applies only until section 606 of the Revised Judicature Act of 1961 is repealed, creating a temporary provision.

Takes effect 90 days after enactment and is contingent on passage of House Bill 5317 or an unspecified Senate Bill.
