New Changes to Teen Driving Laws Effective January 1, 2004 , the GDL law will change to reflect new passenger limitations for beginning teen drivers. For the first six months of a person's license or until the driver is age 18, whichever occurs first, the number of passengers in a vehicle is limited to one person under the age of 20, unless the additional passenger(s) is a sibling, step-sibling, child or step-child of the driver. These restrictions reduce the likelihood a driver will be distracted by a car full of fellow teens. A conviction for this offense (Section 6-107(g) of the Illinois Vehicle Code) will be entered to the driving record as a non-point assigned violation, similar to a seat belt violation, and is not used to initiate any license sanction by this office. For more information on the GDL program, see our GDL publications BETTER TRAINING for NEW RESPONSIBILITIES "GRADUATE TO SAFETY" GRADUATED LICENSING SYSTEM Getting a driver's permit or license is one of the most exciting events in a teenager's life. But along with this new privilege comes a lot of responsibility. Although teenagers make up only six percent of Illinois drivers, they account for 16 percent of all crash fatalities. The Graduated Licensing System gets young people who have proven to be poor drivers off the road and into further training, and keeps parents more involved in preparing their teens to drive responsibly.

Requires a Java Enabled Browser. Overview of the Fifth District Court Selection of Judges The Constitution of the State of New Mexico provides for the qualifications and selection of district judges. To hold the office of district judge a person must be at least thirty-five years old and been in the actual practice of law at least six years preceding assumption of office. A district judge is initially appointed by the Governor of the State of New Mexico. The judge must stand for one partisan election. After that, each judge shall be subject to retention or rejection on a nonpartisan ballot. Retention of the judicial office shall require at least 57 percent of the vote cast on the question of retention or rejection. Each district judge shall be subject to retention or rejection at the general election every sixth year. Every judicial district has a chief judge selected by the judges of that district for a term of three years. Jurisdiction THE DISTRICT COURT is a court of general jurisdiction charged with the responsibility of adjudicating all felony offenses, all domestic relations matters, civil litigation, such as personal and property damage suits, probate matters, property actions, mental illness hearings, processing of all juveniles referred to the court, and other actions where citizens may seek judicial relief. The district court has supervisory control and appellate jurisdiction over inferior courts and tribunals.

Into The Abyss: A Personal Journey into the World of Street Gangs by Mike Carlie Ph.D. Michael K. Carlie Table of Contents Foreword Preface Orientation What I Learned ... Up-To-Date Gang-Related News Topic 3: Court Solutions A juvenile gang member's first appearance in court is often a pivotal event because he or she will cause a "record" of their appearance to be created. That record will then follow the juvenile until he or she becomes an adult. In some states, juvenile records are sealed when juveniles become adults - their record can not be opened or used against them should they reoffend and appear in criminal (adult) court. Adults' records, on the other hand, are not sealed. The trip to court is pivotal for adults and juveniles alike because, in addition to creating a "record" on the individual which may be used in future proceedings, the court determines, through its sentencing decisions, whether offenders are to be incarcerated , sentenced to treatment in the community, or given some alternative sentence. For juveniles, a trip to juvenile court is likely to result in a sentence to

Philosophy of Teen Court Our contention is that if peer pressure can be used to exert a negative influence, it likewise can be used as a positive force. Those who work with youth know just how instrumental peer pressure can be in the decision-making process of all young minds. Teen Court is based upon the premise that most young people want to do what is right when making decisions. Even those who may make the wrong choice due to external factors such as peer pressure are often gratified to learn that they have an opportunity to make amends. What better way to impress upon a young offender than to be judged by a jury of his/her peers? Peer pressure in this court setting will have a more immediate and meaningful effect upon the individual than the more traditional juvenile justice approach. The message given by a peer jury will be long remembered by those seeking to fit within a group and be accepted. Criteria First time misdemeanor offenders (ages 10-17) who have pled guilty or have been found guilty by juvenile judge qualify. Teen Court cases include offenses such as:

Return to Federal Citizen Information Center Home Page About..... Taking Legal Action Life Advice Helping You Make Sense of It All "You'll be hearing from my lawyer!" This sounds great on television. People with clear-cut complaints hire legal eagles who make mincemeat out of the opposition. And, of course, the good guy always wins. But television isn't real life, and all legal cases aren't quite so simple. Becoming embroiled in legal action can be draining both emotionally and financially. So before contacting a lawyer, take a brief look at what's involved. This Life Advice Program pamphlet about Taking Legal Action was produced by the MetLife Consumer Education Center and reviewed by the Division for Public Education of the American Bar Association and the Legal Services Corporation. Editorial services provided by Meredith Custom Publishing. What Type of Complaint Do I Have? In our justice system, complaints come in two categories: Criminal complaints may be signed by victims but typically are brought by a state or federal prosecutor, such as a state's attorney or district attorney, against an individual who has been accused of committing a crime such as theft, arson or murder. Even if you are the victim of a crime, you cannot bring criminal charges yourself. Only a government prosecutor can file such complaints.

2004 Advocacy/Legislative Agenda The 2004 Prevent Child Abuse Illinois Legislative agenda draws from the leadership and direction of Voices for Illinois Children and our collaboration with them. We have also adopted along with Voices, the Illinois CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) imperative to seek state support for the network of volunteer trained advocates serving abused and neglected children in court systems across the state. Our 2004 agenda also reflects several familiar home visitation, early learning, and healthcare priority issues. Healthy Families Illinois is a voluntary program of intensive home visiting to support parents of newborns and reduce the risk of child abuse and neglect. It is modeled after Healthy Families America, a national initiative of Prevent Child Abuse America. Its goals are to promote positive parenting, encourage child health and development, and prevent child abuse and neglect. Begun in 1997 with state funding, HFI grew to an $11 million statewide program in 51 different communities serving 3,000 families annually by 2001. There has been no additional funding since then and the program has not been able to grow toward serving the thousands more needing its services. Our vision is to see this program reach full scale in Illinois through incremental growth every year. In 2004, we will seek a $2 million increase in funding for Healthy Families Illinois.

About LRE History of LRE in Georgia What is Law-Related Education (LRE)? It can be defined as education for non lawyers about the law, legal processes, and the legal system. It does not seek to make lawyers. Rather, LRE seeks to improve the citizenship skills of youth and adults. It focuses on issues that can be translated into real and personal experiences, and it seeks to improve understanding, build skills, and create constructive attitudes. It provides a broader perspective for examining the principles and structure of government and society. Why is LRE important? Why should it be in the school curriculum? Experience with LRE in schools throughout the country since the early 1970s shows that LRE can help build knowledge of our laws and legal system. expand awareness and appreciation of principles basic to our democratic system. students increase their understanding of government, the judicial system, and their rights and responsibilities as citizens. develop skills in critical thinking, communication, and participation.

C.J. Lucksinger is teaching a teen law class at Fairway to give students exposure to the court system. To help students understand the complexities of judges, juries, and trials, attorneys Billy Ray Hall Jr., Cari Starritt-Burnett, Jamey Secrest, and Brett Tate walked through a jury selection process with two Fairway classes. At the end of the first class, the two attorneys said the students reacted much the same as adults do in actual jury selections. Prior to the exercise, students had filled out questionnaires to build a fictitious identity, complete with family, career, and background experiences.
