SHAW, Justice
(concurring in the result).
I concur in the result. While this case was pending on appeal, Act No. 2014-350, Ala. Acts 2014, became effective and retroactively granted the juvenile court subject-matter jurisdiction in this case. I believe that Act No. 2014-350 is clear and constitutional and that its application complies with numerous authorities approving the retroactivity of statutory law. See, e.g., Dickinson v. Cosmos Broad. Co., 782 So.2d 260 (Ala.2000), and Landgraf v. USI Film *208Prods., 511 U.S. 244, 114 S.Ct. 1483, 128 L.Ed.2d 229 (1994).
