Amends the definition of "child" or "juvenile" in the Juvenile Justice Code.

This bill amends the definition of "child" or "juvenile" in the Juvenile Justice Code to exclude certain individuals based on their age and the severity of the charges they face. Specifically, it excludes those who are seventeen years of age or older and charged with certain serious felonies, as well as those who are sixteen years of age or older and charged with specific violent crimes. This change affects how these individuals are processed within the juvenile justice system.
