Arizona HB2623 amends juvenile offender proceedings to require timely notice to the prosecutor's office and victims.

Arizona HB2623 amends section 8-390 of the Arizona Revised Statutes to mandate that courts notify the prosecutor's office of any changes in scheduled juvenile offender proceedings. The court must provide at least five days' notice for all proceedings except detention hearings. If the court finds it unreasonable to provide this notice, it must document the reason in the record. Upon receiving notice from the court, the prosecutor's office must then notify the victim of scheduled proceedings, changes in the schedule, and the possibility of immediate predisposition or disposition proceedings.
