Tampa Juvenile Court Lawyer - Lawmakers Seeking Civil Citations for Juveniles

TBO is reporting Lawmakers in Tallahassee are pushing for a program that would give youthful law-breakers an opportunity to avoid arrest records by introducing civil citations instead of standard criminal arrests. These citations would be issued for non-violent crimes and would have children and teens enter social service programs rather than the criminal justice system. We will keep you up to date on this potential new policy here at the Advocate For You criminal law blog.
