Third Circuit Court of Appeals Holds Juvenile Detention Centers Can Be Liable for Deficient Policies and Practices. On June 10, 2004 the Third Circuit Court of Appeals found that there is potential liability for a county juvenile detention center in a JLC case involving a 13-year-old, with serious mental health problems, who was maltreated by other youth in juvenile detention. The Court found that the plaintiff raised serious issues, and that a county can be liable for deficient hiring and staffing policies and practices; lack of an adequate training program for the detention center's staff; lack of established protocols to ensure youth safety; and lack of established policies to address the mental and physical health needs of youth residents.
Amendment to Adoption Act Limits Time Birth Parents Can Reconsider An amendment to the Pennsylvania Adoption Act, approved by the Governor on March 24, 2004, now limits the time birth parents have to reconsider an adoption. For the father (birth or putative), consent to an adoption is irrevocable 30 days after birth or execution of the consent (whichever event happens later); for the birth mother, consent is irrevocable 30 days after execution of the consent.
US Supreme Court Fails to Extend Juvenile Rights On June 1, 2004, the United States Supreme Court decided that a California state court was not wrong in refusing to consider the defendant's age when considering whether he was "in custody." Miranda warnings must be given when suspects are "in custody," if statements are to be admissible at trial.
