In the state of Wisconsin aren't juveniles entitled to a waiver hearing before going to adult court?

This document I found on the internet lists ways they might get past the waiver..\n\nhttp://www.wicourts.gov/forms/JD-1723.DOC

Children have no rights. A child, under a JD Petition doesn't go to what a court considers jail. They are also not housed with criminals or adults. i saw a case in Indiana regariding the same when a child broke probabation.\n\nSome children in some states are tried as adults, some at different ages. Some of them have been executed in Texas when they became 18 or older.\n\nUsually children must meet a test, ours is a three pronged one, at least in this state , before a judge, prior to being bound over as an adult. The Superior Court does not have to accept the judges decision, the decision is reversed and the child is transfered back to it's origibal jurisdiction..\n\nIf they are tried as an adult, they have all the remedys available to them that adults do, including a jury trial. i don't see how anyone can say they can participate in their defense adequately when they are still children, but they do it anyway. Adult courts are not geared for kids.\n\nI am not looking up case law as it is too difficult. You can look at any JD law in any state and most of the cites are going to be at the end of the section. Each state is different.

You can be charged with a state crime at any age.  It is simply a matter of whether you will be tried as an adult or as a juvenile.  Children as young as 10 have been charged as adults.

sounds like a homework question..  the biggest difference in the systems is terminology.. instead of a juvenile being called a criminal they are called delinquent, they attend hearings... so on. another big difference is the fact that most juvenile hearings aren't open to the public, unlike adult criminal trials. the records of the juveniles are usually confidential, and all can be sealed. The juvenile justice system is based off of the idea that juveniles can be rehabilitated. Most programs, and any possible incarceration, are majorly composed of rehabilitation efforts, and this is all an attempt to make the juvenile a productive member of society.

I'm a probation officer, and here in Indiana, juveniles can stay on probation as long as the court wants to order them to be on probation.  It doesn't matter if they turn 18 or 21 while they are on probation.  What's important is that they were under 18 when they committed their offense.  As far as the court is concerned, the person is still legally a juvenile until he or she completes all his terms of probation or is unsuccessfully terminated from probation.\n\nI can refuse to allow a juvenile probationer to move out of his/her parent's home even if the probationer has turned 18. I can also insist on the probationer following the established curfew even though he/she is over 18.\n\nYou really need to discuss these issues with your probation officer.  The standards may be different for your state, or your officer might be more lenient or more strict.

Not only does this criteria differ from state to state but it can also differ from one location to another within the same state. You would have to check the local codes or restrictions. Some areas have a curfew and minors cannot work past those times. The local courthouse should know or try checking online for your location.

Where you on probation as a minor or adult?  If you are currently on probation and violated your probation terms, they may request that you serve your probation term in prison.  Juvenile record might have an impact on the terms that the judge set for your prison time.

Most courts usually consider the childs request at about 11-12 yrs old, but that doesn't mean you will get your wish. There is not a "law" per se, but rather the merits of each individual situation. It is really up to the judge.

First of all, nothing is ever "off your record" for the military, even juvenile. That is a myth. We unseal all records and treat all offenses as an adult offense. Anyone that thinks we enlist the dregs of society needs to take themselves to the local recruiting office and find out how many times that they personally are disqualified. 1 out of 13 people a recruiter talks to is qualified to enlist. Criminal records are the number 1 disqualifier.\n\nAlso, the Air Force is going through another drawdown and are not accepting Prior Service or waivers.\n\nDepending on what your charge is (I'd need to know thely need a  exact charge, and teh sentence), you'll probably need a waiver to enlist as a convincted criminal. It is also a 45 day wait after your probation is terminated to begin any processing.

You would need to go to the clerk of the court in which the hearing was held.  I'm not sure where you are, but there might only be a limited amount of information available.  If it involved a minor, you will get no identification whatsoever of the minor.

Well, put quite simply, Juveniles should not be tried as adults in court.  But the system is grossly misjudging both adults and children in their capacities to make decisions.\n\nPhysiologically speaking, humans do not fully develop their critical thinking skills until they are adults!  According to developmental psychologists, males' brains do not finish in their development of critical thinking until the age of approximately 21-23.  Women's brains mature a bit earlier, between the ages of 18-21.  \n\nSo this would explain a lot!  Why don't teenagers and young adults seem to make good choices?  Why do many young adults take risks without considering the consequences of their actions?  Because they are physiologically unable!  They have not yet finished developing the mental processes which allow them to do so.  Until the medical community brings forth research to the contrary you will be hard pressed to find juveniles consistently tried as adults...simply for the reason that they are *not* adults! \n\nHave a great day!

The first answer is correct for deposition.\n\nYou might be thinking about a disposition.  This is another word for sentencing.  In Indiana, we use the word "disposition" for juveniles, and use "sentencing" for adults.

There are a number of situations where a juvenile can go to the court and get the judge to approve something, rather than going to their parents. The most traditional is emancipation, where the court acknowledges the minor is mature enough to leave home and be legally distinct from the parents. \n\nThis concept has also come up with many health-related laws, where a minor can get the court's approval for certain medical procedures, if they are scared of their parents' reaction. The judge is sometimes empowered to authorize the procedure based on the child's mature decision, even absent parental approval.\n\nEach state's laws are different. Check your local listings.

If you were found guilty as a minor, then you're good to go.  If found guilty as an adult, you should contact the nursing board and ask them.

"The court does not give a final judgment regarding the case. The defendant is given probation, a program or community service in which they have a specified amount of time to complete. If the defendant complies, the case may be dismissed, depending on the county/state. If they do not dismiss in that particular county/state, then the disposition remains adjudication withheld and the case is closed. However, if the defendant is found in violation, the case disposition may be changed and the defendant can be found in guilt."

Each court will be different,\n\nAre you sure they will try it in juvenile court ?  In our area, they most likely would try it in adult court.\n\nBut I would say that since the parents would not be supporting you, you would be sent to juv detention till you are 18 to 21 \nThat is about the max they can do.

In no state does an underage child have the right to decide which parent he wants to live with.  Most states by law or by practice have a rule of thumb as to when a child will be listened to.  Some states will allow the judge to listen to a child as young as 6 or so, other states don't have the child address the judge until 15 or 16.\nThe judge may then give the child's preference such weight as the judge feels it deserves, based on the judge's evaluation of the maturity of the child, the reasoning and reasons given by the child, and all the other facts in the case.\nRegardless of the wishes of the child or the child's age, in every state the ultimate decision is made by the judge.
