An Act To Amend Title 10, Title 11, And Title 21 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Elimination Of Certain Fees. [HB-391]
Delaware relies on fees imposed as surcharges by the criminal legal system to generate revenue for government services. These criminal fees can be an unstable revenue generator, especially when there are recessions, pandemics, or other major economic events. This Act repeals three fees that currently fund videophone systems used by state and local agencies, personnel, equipment, and training expenses related to judicial branch security, and victim notification initiatives. The elimination of these fees was recommended by the Criminal Legal System (continued...)

An Act To Amend Title 10 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Appeals Of Superior Court Denials Of Reverse Amenability Orders. [HB-424]
Currently, if a child files an application in Superior Court to have their criminal case transferred to Family Court and the Superior Court denies the application, there is no recourse for appeal until the childs criminal case is finally adjudicated in Superior Court. In State v. Roberts, Del.Supr. 282 A.2nd 603 (1971) the Delaware Supreme Court stated its jurisdiction, over such appeals by an accused, may only be by operation of law. This Act permits the child to enter a plea of guilty or nolo contendere and appeal an amenability denial to the (continued...)

An Act Proposing An Amendment To Article I Of The Delaware Constitution Relating To Prohibition Of The Death Penalty. [HB-35]
This Act is the first leg of a constitutional amendment to prohibit the imposition of the death penalty. The Act also removes reference to capital offenses in Section 12 of Article I because that language is inconsistent with a constitutional prohibition on the death penalty. The words Section 11 and Section 12 are struck to accord with the passage of a first leg constitutional amendment on technical corrections in the 152nd General Assembly (HB430), and the expected passage of the second leg in the 153rd General Assembly.
