Highlight

A statute is ambiguous if it is susceptible to meanings that are different, but rational.
Under N.D.C.C. 27-20-34, a juvenile court is to automatically transfer a case involving gross sexual imposition or attempted gross sexual imposition only if the gross sexual imposition or attempted gross sexual imposition charge is "by force or by threat of imminent death, serious bodily injury, or kidnapping."
