Item 1

 
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:

 
Sec. 1. 34-A MRSA §3814, as enacted by PL 1991, c. 314, §65 and
amended by PL 1999, c. 401, Pt. J, §4, is further amended to
read:

 
§3814. Transportation

 
All court-ordered and court-related transportation of juvenile
detainees to and from the Southern Maine Juvenile Facility
between a correctional facility authorized by the department to
house juvenile detainees and a courthouse is the responsibility
of the sheriff of the county in which the court is located.

 
SUMMARY

 
This bill would relieve the county of the cost of transporting
juveniles other than to a courthouse. The cost of other court-
ordered transportation would be the responsibility of the State.
