New Jersey A327: Stolen Car Accountability Act allows juveniles charged with residential burglary and motor vehicle theft to be tried as adults under.

New Jersey A327, the Stolen Car Accountability Act, allows for the waiver of jurisdiction for juveniles charged with residential burglary and motor vehicle theft, enabling them to be tried as adults. This applies if the juvenile is a non-violent first-time offender and cooperates with prosecutors to arrest and convict an adult involved in an auto theft network or who recruited the juvenile. Such cooperation can lead to a plea bargain for a five-year sentence with three years of parole ineligibility and dismissal of the residential burglary charge.
