AI-generated summary, not yet reviewed by Better Utah staff. Please consult the bill text.
Under current law, once a juvenile court orders a minor into detention, that time must be served in full and cannot be suspended. This bill would allow a judge to suspend up to five days of a minor's detention order on conditions the court sets, and would allow suspension of up to the full 30-day maximum if the minor previously had a detention order where part of the time was suspended and then later required to be served after the minor didn't meet the conditions. Before any suspended detention time can be reinstated and actually served, the minor must be given notice and a court hearing.
