Morgan was found guilty of harassment and petit larceny, and was ordered placed with the Department of Social Services for 18 months. Under § 3575(f), a "dangerous" offender is defined as an individual for whom, "a period of confinement longer than that provided for such [underlying] felony is required for the protection of the public from further criminal conduct by the defendant.". Cf. [Footnote 28] The burden at this hearing is on the presentment agency to call witnesses and offer evidence in support of the charges. From a legal point of view, there is nothing inherently unattainable about a prediction of future criminal conduct. §§ 353.1-353.5. He was 14 years old at the time and, therefore, came within the jurisdiction of New York's Family Court. Decided June 4, 1984. We conclude that preventive detention under the FCA serves a legitimate state. New York Jud.Law § 320.5 (McKinney 1983) (Family Court Act (hereinafter FCA)) provides, in relevant part: "1. Secure detention is more restrictive, but it is still consistent with the regulatory and parens patriae objectives relied upon by the State. The majority refuses to consider the circumstances of these 34 cases, dismissing them as unrepresentative, ante at 467 U. S. 272, n. 21, and focuses instead on the lurid facts associated with the cases of the three named appellees. By natellaizbaku Apr 13, 2004 330 Words. & Inst.Code Ann. But since new Article 3 contains a preventive detention section identical to former § 739(a)(ii), see FCA § 320.5(3), the appeal is not moot. This is known as ____ jurisdiction. The District Court struck down the statute as permitting detention without due process and ordered the release of all class members. § 45-421 (Supp.1983); Cal.Welf. Supreme Court Case Files. Wayburn v. Schupf, 39 N.Y.2d at 687-688, 350 N.E.2d at 908-909. See, e.g., Citizens' Committee for Children of New York, Inc., Juvenile Detention Problems in New York City 3-4 (1970); J. Schall v Martin. Sellers v. United States, 89 S. Ct. 36, 38, 21 L. Ed. So, in striking down on vagueness grounds a vagrancy ordinance, we emphasized the "unfettered discretion it places in the hands of the . § 304.1(2). Notice, a hearing, and a statement of facts and reasons are given to the juvenile prior to any detention, and a formal probable cause hearing is then held within a short time thereafter, if the factfinding hearing is not itself scheduled within three days. On the basis of this evidence, the District Court rejected the equal protection challenge as "insubstantial," [Footnote 11] but agreed with appellees that pretrial detention under the FCA violates due process. No. If the latter, the officer makes an additional recommendation regarding whether the juvenile should be detained. 467 U.S. 253. Robert ABRAMS, Attorney General of New York v. Gregory MARTIN et al. [Footnote 2/31] Second, § 320.5(3)(b) does not specify how likely it must be that a juvenile will commit a crime before his trial to warrant his detention. Id. [Footnote 2/32]. [Footnote 2/3] Section 320.5(3)(a) empowers a judge of the New York Family Court to order detention of a juvenile if he finds "there is a substantial probability that [the juvenile] will not appear in court on the return date." at 373. However, as Judge Newman observed, they could also be considered procedural flaws. 689 F.2d at 370-371, and nn. This discretion exercised by Family Court judges in making detention decisions gives rise to two related constitutional problems. The Court of Appeals affirmed. Second, it fosters arbitrariness and inequality in a decisionmaking process that impinges upon fundamental rights. 130-134 (describing the detrimental effects of pretrial detention of a juvenile upon the preparation and presentation of his defense); cf. [Footnote 8] He had been detained pursuant to § 320.5(3)(b), between the initial appearance and the completion of the factfinding hearing, for a total of 15 days. at 702, and does not determine whether there is probable cause to believe the juvenile committed the offense. But even if these practical difficulties could be surmounted, the majority's proposal would be inadequate. FCA § 305.2(3). First, does preventive detention under the. . this is a brief summary of important points in the juvenile case Schall v Martin. And, second, are the procedural safeguards contained in the FCA adequate to authorize the pretrial detention of at least some juveniles charged with crimes? § 321.1. 286-287. The Supreme Court reversed the US District Court and the Second Circuit, and held the statute did not violate the Due Process Clause. Schall v. Martin general information. INTRODUCTION The constitutional domestication' of the juvenile justice system in America began with the philosophically sweeping 1967 decision in In re Gault,2 granting minors charged with committing criminal of- fenses the protection of the due process clause of the fourteenth amendment.' Brief for Appellees 93. The majority cites one case in which a detainee did obtain his release by securing a writ of habeas corpus. See n 9, infra. of HEW, Children's Bureau, Pub. The alternative purpose assigned by the State to § 320.5(3)(b) is the prevention of crime by the detained juveniles. In each of the cases in which the Court has countenanced reliance upon a prediction of future conduct in a decisionmaking process impinging upon life or liberty, the affected person had already been convicted of a crime. at 708. The Court of Appeals affirmed, holding that, since the vast majority of juveniles detained under the statute either have their cases dismissed before an adjudication of delinquency or are released after adjudication, the statute is administered, not for preventive purposes, but to impose punishment for unadjudicated criminal acts, and that therefore the statute is unconstitutional as to all juveniles. § 48.208 (1981-1982); Wyo.Stat. 467 U.S. 253. § 351.1. I. On the basis of the information derived from the interview and from an examination of the juvenile's record, the probation officer decides whether the case should be disposed of informally ("adjusted") or whether it should be referred to the Family Court. at 387 U. S. 31-57 (notice of charges, right to counsel, privilege against self-incrimination, right to confrontation and cross-examination); In re Winship, 397 U. S. 358 (1970) (proof beyond a reasonable doubt); Breed v. Jones, 421 U. S. 519 (1975) (double jeopardy). 437-1966). . CRIM. The provision indicates only that there must be a "serious risk" that he will commit an offense, and does not prescribe the standard of proof that should govern the judge's determination of that issue. 439 (1974); Ennis & Litwack, Psychiatry and the Presumption of Expertise: Flipping Coins In the Courtroom, 62 Calif.L.Rev. The findings reviewed in the preceding section lend credence to the conclusion reached by the courts below: § 320.5(3)(b) "is utilized principally, not for preventive purposes, but to impose punishment for unadjudicated criminal acts." Thus, the juvenile may oppose any recommended detention by arguing that there is not probable cause to believe he committed the offense or offenses with which he is charged. Martin, 467 U. S. 253, 255, 269 (1984); United States v. Salerno , 481 U. S. 739, 741, 746-747 (1987). REHNQUIST, J., delivered the opinion of the Court, in which BURGER, C.J., and WHITE, BLACKMUN, POWELL, and O'CONNOR, JJ., joined. But even if New York's experience were duplicated on a national scale, that fact would not lead us, as amici urge, to conclude that every State and the United States are illicitly punishing juveniles prior to their trial. it is almost 2 pages long. Schall v. Martin (1984) Schall v. Martin (1984) References Effects on Society Schall v. Martin (1984) Pretrial detention was criticized on the basis that future criminal behavior by individuals cannot be reliably predicted. [Footnote 2/28] Thus, to protect the rights of the majority of juveniles whose incarceration advances no legitimate state interest, § 320.5(3)(b) must be held unconstitutional "on its face.". No. Perhaps more significant is the fact that in consequence of lack of experience and comprehension the juvenile does not view the commission of what are criminal acts in the same perspective as an adult. If the juvenile has committed a designated felony, the court must order a probation investigation and a diagnostic assessment. But, as has been shown, that objective is advanced at best sporadically by the provision. In cases involving designated felonies or other serious crimes, adjustment is not permitted without written approval of the Family Court. A prediction of future criminal conduct may also form the basis for an increased sentence under the "dangerous special offender" statute, 18 U.S.C. However, the probation officer who prepared the report rarely attends the hearing. As the Court of Appeals acknowledged, 689 F.2d at 369, n. 18, there are defects in all of the available statistical studies. See Bell v. Wolfish, 441 U. S. 520, 441 U. S. 527, n. 6 (1979); Middendorf v. Henry, 425 U. S. 25, 425 U. S. 30 (1976). After examining a study of a sample of 34 cases in which juveniles were detained under § 320.5(3)(b), [Footnote 2/7] along with various statistical studies of pretrial detention of juveniles in New York, [Footnote 2/8] the District Court made findings regarding the. (footnotes omitted). That counsel for a juvenile ordinarily is not even appointed until a few minutes prior to the initial appearance, see supra at 467 U. S. 284 and this page, confirms this interpretation. McKeiver v. Pennsylvania Case Brief. The heart of the intake procedure is a 10-to-40-minute interview of the juvenile, the arresting officer, and sometimes the juvenile's parent or guardian. Media for Schall v. Martin. [Footnote 20] In the latter case, since the times for the probable cause hearing and the factfinding hearing coincide, the two hearings are merged. By contrast, under the District of Columbia statute, see 467 U.S. 253fn2/21|>n. Such a prediction is an experienced one based on a host of variables that cannot be readily codified. LOCATION:Spofford Juvenile Center. App. Surely there is a qualitative difference between imprisonment and the condition of being subject to. The argument that § 320.5(3)(b) serves "the State's parens patriae interest in preserving and promoting the welfare of the child,'" ante at 467 U. S. 265 (citation omitted), now appears particularly hollow. To decide the cases before us, we need not consider either the feasibility of such a scheme or its constitutionality. [Footnote 2/23], The rarity with which invocation of § 320.5(3)(b) results in detention of a juvenile who otherwise would have committed a crime fatally undercuts the two public purposes assigned to the statute by the State and the majority. By: Leanne Alcoser, Elena Espinoza, Gary Norris, Stephen Ramirez, and Cody Springer Impact Case had on Today's Society Before/After Impact on Todays Society Before/ After Martin v. Strasburg (1994) Argued unfair to punish the Juveniles until trial Congressed passed the Violent [Footnote 2/35] This kind of parody of reasoned decisionmaking would be less likely to occur if judges were given more specific and mandatory instructions regarding the information they should consider and the manner in which they should assess it. The Family Court judge cannot be expected to anticipate such developments at the initial hearing. At the time of his initial appearance, on March 15, 1978, Rosario had another delinquency petition pending for knifing a student, and two prior petitions had been adjusted. Section 320.5(3)(b) of the New York Family Court Act authorizes pretrial detention of an accused juvenile delinquent based on a finding that there is a "serious risk" that the child "may before the return date commit an act which if committed by an adult would constitute a crime." The court therefore concluded that § 320.5(3)(b) must be declared unconstitutional as to all juveniles. FCA § 320.2. 7, supra, the studies are sufficient to support the three findings enumerated in the text. Bell v. Wolfish, 441 U.S. at 441 U. S. 564-565 (MARSHALL, J., dissenting), it requires affirmance in these cases. [Footnote 2/6] The typical hearing lasts between 5 and 15 minutes, and the judge renders his decision immediately afterward. § 43-255 (Supp.1982); Nev.Rev.Stat. Only if, as in Martin's case, the Family Court is not in session and special circumstances exist, such as an inability to notify the parents, will the child be taken directly by the arresting officer to a juvenile detention facility. . Strictly speaking, "guilt" is never adjudicated under the Act; nor is the juvenile ever given a trial. Review of the transcripts of the hearings in those cases reveals the actual number to be 9 and 23, respectively. In addition, there was testimony concerning juvenile proceedings from a number of witnesses, including a legal aid attorney specializing in juvenile cases, a probation supervisor, a child psychologist, and a Family Court Judge. Certainly the public reaps no benefit from incarceration of the majority of the detainees who would not have committed any crimes had they been released. § 15-11-19 (1982); Haw.Rev.Stat. § 169B:14 (Supp.1983) N.J.Stat.Ann. In light of these cases, I agree with the Court that “the Due Process Clause protects a pretrial detainee from the use of excessive force that amounts to punishment.” See, e.g., Brief for American Bar Association as Amicus Curiae 23; Brief for Association for Children of New Jersey as Amicus Curiae 8, 11; Brief for Youth Law Center et al. § 14-6-206 (1977). "Pretrial detention is by nature temporary, and it is most unlikely that any given individual could have his constitutional claim decided on appeal before he is either released or convicted. These time frames seem suited to the limited purpose of providing the youth with a controlled environment and separating him from improper influences pending the speedy disposition of his case. It is conceivable that some of those persons are so crime-prone that they would have committed an offense if not detained. The Court will not sift through the entire class to determine whether the statute was constitutionally applied in each case. And the judgment of that court is appealable as of right and may be taken directly to the Court of Appeals if a constitutional question is presented. at 285; Testimony of Mr. Benjamin, id. We have already seen that detention of juveniles on that ground serves legitimate regulatory purposes. Wayburn v. Schupf, supra, at 686, 350 N.E.2d at 908, the court declined to dismiss an appeal from the grant of a writ of habeas corpus despite the technical mootness of the case. E.g., Brief for American Bar Association as Amicus Curiae 9-14. Schall established the acceptability of detentions based on the discretion of an expert decision maker. Ante at 467 U. S. 271. Because of the possibility of juvenile delinquency treatment and the absence of second-offender sentencing, there will not be the deterrent for the juvenile which confronts the adult. Supra at 467 U. S. 287-288. (a) Preventive detention under the statute serves the legitimate state objective, held in common with every State, of protecting both the juvenile and society from the hazards of pretrial crime. In Gerstein v. Pugh, 420 U. S. 103, 420 U. S. 113-114 (1975), we relied in part on the severity of "[t]he consequences of prolonged detention" in construing the Fourth Amendment to forbid pretrial incarceration of a suspect for an extended period of time without "a judicial determination of probable cause." an equitable remedy. Even a finding that there is probable cause to believe a juvenile committed the offense with which he was charged is not a prerequisite to his detention. FCA § 308.1(2). The judge ordinarily does not interview the juvenile, id. 31-32, the District Court found that, Id. The Defendant was convicted thereafter for being drunk on a public highway, and he appeals. The juvenile appears accompanied by his parent or guardian. Wayburn v. Schupf, 39 N.Y.2d at 688-689, 350 N.E.2d at 909-910; Aubrey v. Gadbois, 50 Cal. categorical argument in these cases because, even if the purposes identified by the majority are conceded to be compelling, they are not sufficiently promoted by detention pursuant to § 320.5(3)(b) to justify the concomitant impairment of the juveniles' liberty interests. Id. Separation of the properly detained juveniles from the improperly detained juveniles must be achieved through "case-by-case" adjudication. . at 708, makes no inquiry into the truth of allegations in the petition, id. First, Family Court judges are incapable of determining which of the juveniles who appear before them would commit offenses before their trials if left at large and which would not. The concerns that powered these decisions are strongly implicated by New York's preventive detention scheme. Second, after a review of the pertinent scholarly literature, the court noted that, "no diagnostic tools have as yet been devised which enable even the most highly trained criminologists to predict reliably which juveniles will engage in violent crime.". [Footnote 2/16] The majority concedes, as it must, that this principle applies to juveniles. The maximum detention for less serious crimes, again assuming a 3-day extension for good cause shown, is six days. Furthermore, the 34 case histories on which the court relied were hand-picked by appellees' counsel from over a 3-year period. In re Gault, 387 U. S. 1, 387 U. S. 13-14 (1967). The evidence supportive of this finding is overwhelming. . [Footnote 2/24] The benefits even to those few juveniles who would have committed crimes if released are not unalloyed; the gains to them are partially offset by the aforementioned injuries. Held that Gregory Martin’s right of Due process was not violated at any time. The juvenile's countervailing interest in freedom from institutional restraints, even for the brief time involved here, is undoubtedly substantial as well. Such an infrequent and haphazard gain is insufficient to justify curtailment of the liberty, interests of all the presumptively innocent juveniles who would have obeyed the law pending their trials had they been given the chance. [Footnote 5], A petition of delinquency was filed, [Footnote 6] and Martin made his "initial appearance" in Family Court on December 14th, accompanied by his grandmother. Nor is the complainant likely to appear. at 420 U. S. 123. Every Court of Appeals considering the question has rejected that claim. The information on which the judge makes his determination is very limited. DOCKET NO. The court must find, based on a preponderance of the evidence, § 350.3(2), that the juvenile is delinquent and requires supervision, treatment, or confinement. Held that Gregory Martin’s right of Due process was not violated at any time. § 340.1. Judge Newman, in his concurrence below, offered a list of statutory improvements. In New York, a child over the age of 7 but less than 16 is not considered criminally responsible for his conduct. § 325.2. § 2A:4-56 (Supp.1983-1984); N.M.Stat.Ann. Decided June 4, 1984. Appellants argue, however, that there was no occasion to contest their representativeness, because the case histories were not even offered by appellees as a representative sample, and were not evaluated by appellees' expert statistician or the District Court in that light. 513 F. Supp. Exhaustion of state remedies, therefore, would be "an exercise in futility." The first step in the process that leads to detention under § 320.5(3)(b) is known as "probation intake." Although the pretrial detention of the class representatives has long since ended, see infra at 467 U. S. 257-261, this case is not moot for the same reason that the class action in Gerstein v. Pugh, 420 U. S. 103, 420 U. S. 110, n. 11 (1975) was not mooted by the termination of the claims of the named plaintiffs. 142. Partly for similar reasons, we have consistently held violative of the First Amendment ordinances which make the ability to engage in constitutionally protected speech "contingent upon the uncontrolled will of an official -- as by requiring a permit or license which may be granted or withheld in the discretion of such official." § 325.3(3). Wayburn v. Schupf, 39 N.Y.2d 682, 350 N.E.2d 906 (1976). Juvenile proceedings are, thus, civil rather than criminal, although because of the restrictions that may be placed on a juvenile adjudged delinquent, some of the same protections afforded accused adult criminals are also applicable in this context. We have stressed before that crime prevention is "a weighty social objective," Brown v. Texas, 443 U. S. 47, 443 U. S. 52 (1979), and this interest persists undiluted in the juvenile context. If the juvenile is charged with one of a limited number of designated felonies, the factfinding hearing must be scheduled to commence not more than 14 days after the conclusion of the initial appearance. Wayburn v. Schupf, 39 N.Y.2d at 690, 350 N.E.2d at 910. Preventive detention, in any form, had never been upheld by the nation's highest Court. Court. [James W Brown; Robert E Shepherd; Andrew J Shookhoff] Detained juveniles are also entitled to an expedited factfinding hearing. See State v. Gleason, 404 A.2d 573, 580 (Me.1979); People ex rel. Again, therefore, we have no occasion to reach the question. Many other observers of the circumstances of juvenile detention in New York have come to similar conclusions. Id. For example, at least 5 of the 34 juveniles in the sample had no prior contact with the Family Court before being detained, and at least 16 had no prior adjudications of delinquency. Wolfish was exclusively concerned with the constitutionality of conditions of pretrial incarceration under circumstances in which the legitimacy of the incarceration itself was undisputed; the Court avoided any discussion of the showing a State must make in order to justify pretrial detention in the first instance. "Because the situation is likely to recur . The effect of the lack of procedural safeguards constraining detention decisions under § 320.5(3)(b) is that the liberty of a juvenile arrested even for a petty crime is dependent upon the "caprice" of a Family Court judge. Judge Quinones testified that detention at disposition is considered a "harsh solution." at 695-700, appellants did not dispute before the Court of Appeals the representativeness of the 34 cases, see Martin v. Strasburg, 689 F.2d 365, 369, n.19 (CA2 1982). For example, Tyrone Parson, aged 15, one of the members of the sample, was arrested for enticing others to play three-card monte. By Lewis F. Powell, Jr., Published on 10/01/83. Preventive detention, in any form, had never been upheld by the nation's highest Court. In my view, the absence of these constraints is most relevant to the question whether the ends served by the statute can justify its broad reach, see 467 U. S. supra. But it is worth recalling that we are neither a legislature charged with formulating public policy nor an American Bar Association committee charged with drafting a model statute. schall v. martin and the transformation of judicial precedentt jean koh peters* i. introduction 642 ii. 160, 164 (1971). The sufficiency of a petition may be tested by filing a motion to dismiss under § 315.1. Jurek v. Texas, 428 U. S. 262, 428 U. S. 274 (1976) (opinion of Stewart, POWELL, and STEVENS, JJ. An additional reason for not reaching appellees' categorical objection to the purposes relied upon by the State is that the Court of Appeals did not pass upon the validity of those objectives. of Probation), App. In view of this scarcity of relevant information, the District Court credited the testimony of appellees' expert witness, who, "stated that he would be surprised if recommendations based on intake interviews were better than chance, and assessed the judge's subjective prognosis about the probability of future crime as only 4% better than chance -- virtually wholly unpredictable. Brief Fact Summary. Family Court judges are not provided information regarding the behavior of juveniles over whose cases they have presided, so a judge has no way of refining the standards he employs in making detention decisions. A police officer arrested the Defendant at his home and took him onto a public highway. Lawaspect.com PETITIONER:Ellen Schall, Commissioner of New York City Department of Juvenile JusticeRESPONDENT:Gregory Martin, et al.LOCATION:Spofford Juvenile Center DOCKET NO. § 39.032 (Supp.1984); Ga.Code Ann. v.

[Footnote 21] But even assuming it to be the case that "by far the greater number of juveniles incarcerated under [§ 320.5(3)(b)] will never be confined as a consequence of a disposition imposed after an adjudication of delinquency," 689 F.2d at 371-372, we find that to be an insufficient ground for upsetting the widely shared legislative judgment that preventive detention serves an important and legitimate function in the juvenile justice system. Rptr. [Footnote 23] We find no justification for the conclusion that, contrary to the express language of the statute and the judgment of the highest state court, § 320.5(3)(b) is a punitive, rather than a regulatory, measure.
