Court Overview
AN OVERVIEW OF THE court COMPONENT IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE The American court System is a popular topic. are two basic facts about state court systems (1) no two states are completely alike; creating specialized, speedy "drug courts " domestic violence "night courts " and teen courts.

Extractions: AN OVERVIEW OF THE COURT COMPONENT IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE At a basic level, courts are places where people bring disputes to be settled by law. In order for court systems to have legitimacy, they must responsibly exercise their governmental powers and obligations, for which there are many: the seizure of property and persons; the determination of legal family status; enforcement of economic obligations; protection of the average person from arbitrary governmental interference; and putting a non-bureaucratic face on justice. Among the population, courts must have unquestioned, widespread support, and to accomplish this, courts must be fair and impartial, granting each person equal access to an equal chance of presenting their case with an equal chance of success. Courts should be places of awe and majesty, resulting in at least the appearance of justice (Rubin 1976). Whether or not justice is actually done usually depends upon who wins and who loses. Courts may be primary examples of justice as a sporting event or morality play, but they are also places where you need professionals. Every year in the U.S., at least 30,000 new binding decisions are made in the court systems, and this in addition to more than 18,000,000 published decisions make up the body of

It does not necessarily guarantee a better entry job, however, the better the informal education , the higher you may go within a particular field. Of great importance today is job-related education. Teens that do not know how to properly apply for positions, fill out job applications, and conduct themselves properly during a job interview can still lose positions to others less qualified. A job-related education can be a great deterrent to juvenile crime, as the old saying goes, "idle hands...". It is extremely important that job-related education programs be provided in school settings or in special programs provided to juvenile offenders. Teen Court programs that make use of a job-related education program will find that the teenagers in question will have a better opportunity to turn their lives around. Teen Education, Jobs, and Crime, (October 72) Weaver, R. D. Teen Crime Reports 10, 1 Teenagers that cause problems in schools for other students are numbered in small quantities. It's true that at times one or two students can influence entire classes to misbehave or carry out actions that border on being troublesome. It is equally true, however, that the entire class can also influence the two with their actions.

Extractions: Teen Court Research 3 Continued stay up past their bed time. Small children in the primary grades need 10-12 hours of sleep and failing to get it can easily be noticed on their grade level. As the children get older, however, the effects are harder to notice particularly in high school teenagers. The effects are still there, however, and they can lead to many problems. Often times schools are then blamed for the children's lack of learning when in reality it's the parent's fault. There are other factors that parents are responsible for. Do they love and care for their children and show the emotions in a way the children can understand. Do they yell and get after them the night before school day or in the morning on the way to school. Do parents argue in front of children. Do they blame the children for the parent's problems. Do they teach the children discipline and respect, not only for the school system, but society in general. Do they give the children the same respect they demand for themselves. No, parents aren't entirely to blame for students that fail to do well or that get into trouble. They are, however, part of the problem as is the school system, and poorly operated judicial court systems. No one individual or system need point the finger of blame on anyone else without first looking into their own house.

Extractions: Ms. Zehner is the Director of Bay County Teen Court in Panama City, Florida. Teen Court augments traditional juvenile courts by providing a forum for first-time youthful offenders to be judged by their peers. Newspaper headlines and television broadcasts have chronicled the ominously sharp rise in juvenile crime that occurred during the past several years. While everyone agrees that rising levels of juvenile crime represent a serious threat to the quality of life in communities around the country, little consensus exists regarding the best way to respond to this profound problem. The debate, no doubt, will continue for years to come. However, some promising programs already have proven effective in curtailing youth crime. Among these is Teen Court, a program that uses the undeniable power of peer pressure as a positive, rather than negative, force to help convince youthful troublemakers that crime yields serious consequences. Teen Court also provides law enforcement agen- cies a unique opportunity to help guide at-risk youths away from crime at a time when they are particularly impressionable. In states where Teen Court is in place, youths who complete the program re-offend at a much lower rate than do youths tried and sentenced in juvenile courts.1 The program also represents a cost-effective alternative to traditional court processing because Teen Court relies largely on volunteers. While Teen Court is not designed to replace municipal juvenile courts, it does offer a highly structured and effective means to guide some youths away from trouble by showing them that criminal activity has both immediate and long-term consequences.

Extractions: Let me start with the background of the story. A small Texas town known for it's High School Football team. A normal High School of course. It has it's jocks, it has it's "freaks" (as you all like to call them). It started with the usual game of jocks pick on freaks for being "different" as you all like to say they are! Well of course not one person in the school system, not one steps forward to stop this baby game as usual in ANY school system (as seen in the Colorado shootings!) It was a cold December Saturday night. The usual hang out places were filled with people. The jocks and "Freaks" (notice the quotes!" met face to face yet again. And what occurs could have been stopped if you sick and twisted people stop being so damn closed minded and leave those "Freaks" (notice the quotes) alone! The arguing started in the local Ihop. Management kicked them out and said take it outside. Someone called 911 to alert them of a fight about to break out. What happened next is just a total shame and humiliating and sad for America. Child against child in a parking lot. Precious life against precious life! What are we fighting for? Brian (one of the freaks) after getting beat on by several jocks at once got to his feet and began to walk away. Meanwhile Dustin (local jock) got in his car to leave. Before he did he drove his car through the crowds swirving at "freaks" and finally drove to leave. Then he made a decision. He turned his car around and aimed right for Brian. Witnesses said he sped in a straight line at Brian as he ran to get away. Elise (a good friend of Dustin's in the car at the time) said she felt two bumps as Dustin ran his precious teen body over. Cold blooded murder took place. Dustin is quoted by Elise as saying the following: "I am a Ninja in my caddy. I bet he liked that." What a sick child!

Extractions: Florida Takes Teen Smokers to Court [07/20-6] Excerpts from FLORIDA GIVES TEEN-AGE SMOKERS A DAY IN COURT By MIREYA NAVARRO, New York Times [07/20/98] Once a month for a couple of hours, Judge Steven Shutter of Broward County clears his courtroom of lawyers and defendants to make room for restless teen-agers and their inconvenienced parents for what is known as Teen Smoking Court. The judge sometimes has to order quiet more than once, and sometimes he even removes a few people to emphasize his point, but the crowd recoils into silence on its own when Earl Mogk stands up to talk about his larynx cancer, the product, he said, of 40 years of smoking. "When I was your age, there was nobody out there to tell me about the dangers of smoking," Mogk, 60, said at a recent court session, talking through an electronic device he has used since his larynx, or voice box, and vocal cords were surgically removed. "The reason I'm here today is for a reality check." In Florida's fight against teen-age smoking, Shutter's courtroom in Plantation, a suburb just west of Fort Lauderdale, is a new weapon that combines education, health warnings and parental nagging with the weight of the law. The Teen Smoking Court is part of a large-scale campaign against underage smoking that the state is financing with $200 million of the $11.3 billion settlement it reached with tobacco companies last year after suing to recover Medicaid payments for smoking-related illnesses.
