Juvenile delinquency cases are cases involving a minor under the age of 18 who has been accused of committing an offense that would be considered criminal if committed by an adult.
Status Offenses
Other juvenile offenses may be referred to as status offenses. Status offenses are those acts that are unlawful only because they are committed by a minor.
Cases Involving Family Matters
In addition, this court handles other matters involving the family such as custody, support and visitation.
