Juvenile Curfew Ordinances And The Constitution, Michigan Law Review
Juvenile Curfew Ordinances And The Constitution, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Recognizing that a legislature must decide whether to enact a juvenile curfew without the benefit of conclusive data on the effectiveness of such laws, the remainder of this Note will focus primarily upon the constitutional issues raised by such ordinances. The freedom of movement that is limited by a curfew is, it will be argued, an unenumerated right protected by the ninth and fourteenth amendments. The constitutional rights of juveniles, however, -are not necessarily coextensive with those of adults. Certain characteristics of juveniles-in particular, their lesser capacity for reason and self-control-imply that the strength of their right to freedom of …
Juvenile Court: The Legal Process As A Rehabilitative Tool, Bobbe Jean Ellis
Juvenile Court: The Legal Process As A Rehabilitative Tool, Bobbe Jean Ellis
Washington Law Review
The author's study, reported in this comment, had two objectives. First, it attempted to determine whether a juvenile's experience with the traditional sociological model or with the legal due process model is more likely to motivate him to feel positively toward the legal system. Second, this study attempted to measure the attitudes of the professionals in the juvenile system (judges, attorneys, and caseworkers) toward the two models. The results of the study, although not all were statistically significant, indicated that although the professionals favored the traditional sociological model, the use of the legal-due process model was more likely to result …
National Study Of The Aftermath Of Apprehension, Martin Gold, Jay R. Williams
National Study Of The Aftermath Of Apprehension, Martin Gold, Jay R. Williams
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
It appears, unfortunately, that what legal authorities now commonly do upon apprehending a juvenile for his delinquent behavior is worse than not apprehending him at all. Two independent studies demonstrate that apprehension itself encourages rather than deters further delinquency. Such a conclusion constitutes a serious indictment of current procedures. This article documents that conclusion and, together with the reactions to these data of men professionally concerned with the problem of delinquency, suggests what might be done about this problem.
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Juvenile Court Judge's Response, John P. Steketee
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Juvenile Court Judge's Response, John P. Steketee
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
It would appear that juveniles find apprehension to be a reinforcement of their delinquent behavior. Being apprehended and questioned by the police, referred to juvenile court, meeting a probation officer, and going before a judge, not to mention the status one gains in one's group from police and/or court contact, can be a very significant chain of events for many adolescents who have never known the excitement of personal recognition by parents, school officials or even friends. For the first time, they are recognized and listened to, albeit for the wrong reasons. The attention need not be positive; shouting, scolding, …
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Family Lawyer's Response, Robert F. Drinan S.J.
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Family Lawyer's Response, Robert F. Drinan S.J.
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
It is contended here that Gold and Williams' statement of their thesis in National Study of the Aftermath of Apprehension that "apprehension itself encourages rather than deters further delinquency" is not what their research proves. The research proves rather that the revelation of the apprehension to the delinquent's parents without the consent of the youth apprehended is the real cause of the youth's further delinquency. Stated more precisely, it is the attitude of the parents towards the youth who has been apprehended by the police which is the critical factor in encouraging or deterring the youth from further delinquency.
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Social Scientist's Response, Richard B. Stuart
Aftermath Of Apprehension: Social Scientist's Response, Richard B. Stuart
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Gold and Williams suggest in National Study of the Aftermath of Apprehension that "It appears, unfortunately, that what legal authorities commonly do upon apprehending a juvenile for his delinquent behavior is worse than not apprehending him at all." If this conclusion is correct, and it is the result of two interrelated studies, then it should influence sweeping programmatic reforms in the social institutions concerned with promoting and safeguarding the development of youth. The intent of this article is to suggest avenues available for this reform both within and beyond the juvenile justice system. Before addressing the implications of the research, …
A Critical View Of The Uniform Crime Reports, Sophia M. Robison
A Critical View Of The Uniform Crime Reports, Sophia M. Robison
Michigan Law Review
No one would deny that the FBI performs a vital function in investigating, identifying, and tracking down suspects who may endanger the life, liberty, and property of Americans. However, this writer feels that the Uniform Crime Reports published by the FBI should be subjected to a very critical analysis. Of primary concern are the indiscriminate acceptance of the official data by legislators and social science investigators and the doubtful inferences which a frightened public draws from news releases proclaiming that "the U.S. is sitting on a seething volcano of crime."
