In most instances, it is up to the officer’s discretion to determine how they will handle the situation. The dangers in relying on these cues from an officer’s point of view could be deception.

It is possible for some juveniles to be transferred out of the juvenile justice system and into the adult or criminal court system but the process is multifaceted. Each state varies on the age in which a juvenile can be waived to the adult court system. Juveniles that are transferred to the adult court system have a number of reasons for this to happen. Generally they are transferred because it is believed that it is not appropriate for the juvenile to be processed in juvenile court and that they will be dealt with more to all intents and purposes in adult court.

Millions of juveniles are processed through the juvenile court system, and the number has been growing for years. Judges and court officials have been looking for many ways to come up with alternatives to incarceration. There are several different alternatives to incarceration for juveniles currently that will be discussed.
