The Standard Of Proof In Juvenile Proceedings: Gault Beyond A Reasonable Doubt, James Hillson Cohen Jan 1970

The Standard Of Proof In Juvenile Proceedings: Gault Beyond A Reasonable Doubt, James Hillson Cohen

Michigan Law Review

Some of those who have studied the question of the appropriate standard of proof in juvenile proceedings have determined that the "preponderance of the evidence" standard-the standard applied in civil cases-is sufficient, and that the criminal standard should not be applied in such cases. Others have suggested that the standard-of proof question is unimportant since the particular standard which is required will seldom, if ever, make a difference to the outcome of a case. The first of these views is the subject to which the bulk of this Article is addressed; the second can be rebutted by the observation that …

Faculty Scholarship

The purpose of this article is to set out, in summary fashion, the law concerning juvenile offenders in Ethiopia.

Aftermath Of Apprehension: Juvenile Court Judge's Response, John P. Steketee Dec 1969

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. Dec 1969

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.

National Study Of The Aftermath Of Apprehension, Martin Gold, Jay R. Williams Dec 1969

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: Social Scientist's Response, Richard B. Stuart Dec 1969

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, …

Due Process And The Juvenile Offender., Carlos Cadena Mar 1969

Due Process And The Juvenile Offender., Carlos Cadena

St. Mary's Law Journal

For over sixty years, courts consistently found notions of due process inapplicable in juvenile proceedings. The goal of the juvenile court movement was to establish systems of education and protection of errant children, rather than deterrence and retribution. To accomplish these results, the juvenile court was shorn of all resemblance to criminal courts. Public hearings were to be avoided and the intervention of counsel was not required, since the juvenile judge represented both the child and the state. However, it became clear that children were receiving the protection of the state because they engaged in criminal conduct and with little …

Right To Counsel In Virginia Juvenile Proceedings Jan 1969

Right To Counsel In Virginia Juvenile Proceedings

University of Richmond Law Review

The juvenile court, representing the parens patriae power of the state, was created in order to remove juveniles from the stigmatizing and punitive atmosphere of adult criminal courts. Divorced from this atmosphere, the juvenile court, by administering individualized justice' in an informal, civil-natured proceeding, could measure the juvenile's social maladjustment and subject him to state supervision in such a manner as to correct his delinquent attitude and lead him to a correct life. Many forums, however, have found that the functioning juvenile system inadequately promulgates the enlightened principles which led to its creation. Scholars have attacked the non-criminal label as …

Publicity In The Juvenile Court Jan 1969

Publicity In The Juvenile Court

University of Richmond Law Review

With few exceptions a public trial is granted, under the sixth amendment, to adults accused of crimes. Correspondingly, what takes place in the courtroom is generally held to be public property available for dissemination by the press. In juvenile proceedings, however, privacy has "typically been among the few unchallenged keynotes." Characteristic of the juvenile court system have been procedures aimed at maintaining the anonymity of juvenile offenders.

Role Of The Attorney In Juvenile Court, Julian Greenspun Jan 1969

Role Of The Attorney In Juvenile Court, Julian Greenspun

Cleveland State Law Review

An attorney once commented that the effect of Gault was to place him in his proper role, that of an advocate whose sole purpose was to defend constitutional rights, and that he did not have to be a social worker or psychologist. But the effect of Gault is to bring counsel into the Juvenile Court, which is a court with compassion. Thus, being a special court, it requires special skills, so that the client may not only receive due process, but if needed, will receive proper care.
