In the Matter of the Welfare Of: D.j.f.-D., Child

Summary

The court held that the governing juvenile-procedure rule permits the State to file multiple timely notices of intention to prosecute while a child remains incompetent. Each notice may extend the suspension for one year, subject to the child aging out of juvenile jurisdiction, a failure to timely file, or the juvenile court's discretion to dismiss. The court therefore affirmed the denial of the motion to dismiss.
