Is Your Teen Son Or Daughter Facing Criminal Charges?
When a juvenile gets in trouble with the law in Colorado, the process is generally very different than in adult court. The juvenile offense is called an act of delinquency and is generally handled in the juvenile court. The juvenile court has its own special rules and procedures, and juveniles may not have all of the same due-process rights afforded to adults. More serious or violent crimes may cause young people to be subjected to the jurisdiction of adult court and face adult consequences.
