S. 1075--A 13
1 (iii) Where the indictment does not charge a crime specified in

4 tion the district attorney shall submit a subscribed memorandum setting
5 forth: (1) a recommendation that the interests of justice would best be
6 served by removal of the action to the family court; and (2) if the
7 indictment charges a thirteen year old with the crime of murder in the

15 of which reasonably supports the recommendation, showing, (i) mitigating
16 circumstances that bear directly upon the manner in which the crime was
17 committed, or (ii) where the defendant was not the sole participant in
18 the crime, that the defendant's participation was relatively minor
19 although not so minor as to constitute a defense to the prosecution, or
