Juvenile Law--Exclusive Original Jurisdiction Of Juvenile Cases In Juvenile Courts, James O. Wilson Jr. Dec 1975

Juvenile Law--Exclusive Original Jurisdiction Of Juvenile Cases In Juvenile Courts, James O. Wilson Jr.

Mercer Law Review

In J.W.A. v. State, the Supreme Court of Georgia laid to rest a jurisdictional problem that had plagued the Georgia juvenile system for almost a half of a century when the court held that exclusive original jurisdiction of non-capital juvenile cases is vested in the juvenile courts with concurrent jurisdiction of the superior courts becoming effective only when activated by a proper transfer from the juvenile courts.


The Runaways, Richard David Young Oct 1975

The Runaways, Richard David Young

IUSTITIA

At the present stage of development, the varied literature on runaway children and adolescents provides little basis for firm conclusions. The apparent heterogeneity of runaways has yet to be fully realized in conceptual or research attempts, although efforts in that direction are beginning. There appears to be little utility or meaning in assigning runaway behavior solely to categories of delinquency or psychopathology. Such efforts have done little to clarify the meaning of running away or to define the important environmental factors and personality features involved in running away. To some extent their greatest impact has been on the restriction of …

Live Organ And Tissue Transplants From Minor Donors In Massachusetts, Charles Baron, Margot Botsford, Garrick Cole Feb 1975

Live Organ And Tissue Transplants From Minor Donors In Massachusetts, Charles Baron, Margot Botsford, Garrick Cole

Charles H. Baron

This article examines the system of providing court approval for organ and tissue transplants from minor donors as it operates in Massachusetts. It focuses principally on the substantive interests of prospective donors and on the extent to which the current procedures afford them adequate protection. It begins by examining the requirement of consent and demonstrates the necessity of judicial authorization of minor donors' participation in transplant procedures. Next, it analyzes the current Massachusetts practice and assess its capacity to afford minor donors adequate protection from the possible dangers of serving as an organ or tissue donor. It suggests that the …


Whose Needy Children?, David L. Bazelon Jan 1975

Whose Needy Children?, David L. Bazelon

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

As an appellate judge for twenty-five years, the author has been confronted daily with cases involving what we call "behavior problems." As a judge, he can tell you it is a distressing task to sift daily through the records detailing the wreckage of human lives. He does not speak only of criminal cases. He also refers to child abuse and neglect cases, welfare eligibility cases, civil commitment cases, and many others.


The Juvenile Court And Emotional Neglect Of Children, James B. Stoetzer Jan 1975

The Juvenile Court And Emotional Neglect Of Children, James B. Stoetzer

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

A primary function of the Juvenile Court is to assist in the protection of children from abuse and neglect. Juvenile court acts, child abuse reporting statutes, and child protective services legislation have incorporated provisions dealing with physical abuse and physical neglect of children. Such legislation enables state intervention into family life for the protection of children exposed to harmful environments. Statutory definitions of abuse and neglect provide a basis on which the community, frequently through the juvenile court, may pass judgment on the existence of child neglect and offer services or coerce family members to accept them. A few states, …


Juvenile Court And Arrest Records, Adrienne Volenik Jan 1975

Juvenile Court And Arrest Records, Adrienne Volenik

Law Faculty Publications

Recognizing the near impossibility of changing societal views toward juvenile offenders, many legislators have at- tempted instead to combat the harmful effects of a delinquency adjudication by providing for concealment of juvenile records, on the grounds that such concealment will aid the child's reintegration into society.


Expungement Of Arrest Records, Adrienne Volenik Jan 1975

Expungement Of Arrest Records, Adrienne Volenik

Law Faculty Publications

Contrary to the philosophy of the juvenile court, it is undoubtedly a rare occasion when a child benefits from his exposure to the juvenile court system. Even when a child is actually rehabilitated by the process, the invidious effects that flow from being labeled a "juvenile delinquent" may serve to negate any benefit that he may have received. Perhaps the most unjustifiable of all side effects is the stigma that attaches to a child who has been arrested and subsequently either released without prosecution or acquitted. In a society that espouses the idea that an individual is innocent until proven …


Notice In Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings, Adrienne Volenik Jan 1975

Notice In Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings, Adrienne Volenik

Law Faculty Publications

Despite these suggestions, the problem of what constitutes adequate notice continues to plague juvenile courts. Furthermore, by suggesting two criminal and two civil cases as examples, the Court added the issue of whether a civil or a criminal standard for notice should be applied. Courts that have addressed this issue have reached different conclusions.

Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings In Ohio: Due Process And The Hearsay Dilemma, Sara E. Strattan Jan 1975

Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings In Ohio: Due Process And The Hearsay Dilemma, Sara E. Strattan

Cleveland State Law Review

This comment will explore the extent to which the exclusion of hearsay evidence in a delinquency proceeding is a practical reality in the Ohio system. In so doing, the possibilities for abuse will be highlighted and suggestions for their elimination will be made, all in the spirit of the Supreme Court's mandate to provide fundamental due process safeguards to this procedure.


Juvenile Delinquent And Unruly Proceedings In Ohio: Unconstitutional Adjudications, Patricia Simia Kleri Jan 1975

Juvenile Delinquent And Unruly Proceedings In Ohio: Unconstitutional Adjudications, Patricia Simia Kleri

Cleveland State Law Review

This article will focus on the constitutional defects of juvenile court adjudications under Ohio juvenile law. The arguments presented, however, are equally applicable in other jurisdictions since every state has some type of legislation granting juvenile court jurisdiction over both criminals and noncriminal misconduct of children.
