Establishes concurrent juvenile jurisdiction on military installations in West Virginia.
West Virginia HB4364 amends the state code to establish concurrent juvenile jurisdiction on military installations. This bill allows the transfer of exclusive federal legislative jurisdiction back to the state with respect to juveniles. It specifies that if a juvenile commits an act that would be a crime if committed by an adult, and the juvenile is adjudicated delinquent, the jurisdiction of the court continues until the juvenile becomes 21 years of age. The court has the same power over that person as it had before the juvenile became an adult.
