执法机构将大约三分之二的被捕青年移交具有少年管辖权的法院进行进一步审理。与执法一样,法院可能会决定将一些青少年从正式的司法系统转移到其他机构服务。检察官可以直接向刑事(成人)法庭提起一些未成年人案件。最终结果是,少年法庭每年正式审理100多万起犯罪和身份犯罪案件。少年法庭裁决这些案件,并可下令缓刑或安置住处,也可放弃管辖权,将某些案件从少年法庭移交刑事法院。在他们的案件正在处理期间,青少年可能会被安全拘留。
Law enforcement agencies refer approximately two-thirds of all youth arrested to a court with juvenile jurisdiction for further processing. As with law enforcement, the court may decide to divert some juveniles away from the formal justice system to other agencies for service. Prosecutors may file some juvenile cases directly in criminal (adult) court. The net result is that juvenile courts formally process over 1 million delinquency and status offense cases annually. Juvenile courts adjudicate these cases and may order probation or residential placement, or they may waive jurisdiction and transfer certain cases from juvenile court to criminal court. While their cases are being processed, juveniles may be held in secure detention.
