A juvenile who accepts responsibility for the charge (guilty or no contest) in a first time misdemeanor case may be referred to Teen Court and become the defendant in a prosecutor, defense attorney, judge and jury setting. Every defendant serves on at least one Teen Court jury (as a sanction) and, once all other sanctions are met, the juvenile (defendant) can become a member of the Teen Court. Teen Court members are students from area schools who have volunteered to serve in this judicial setting. Any student can serve on Teen Court. The requirements to serve are age, no pending charges or sanctions, and interest. Prior to actual participation, they receive extensive training in Courtroom Procedures, Juvenile Justice Procedures and Sanction Philosophy.
