Juveniles are minors.
Juvenile Court is the court designated to handle juvenile delinquency cases and dependency cases. Delinquency cases concern charges of criminal law violations against a minor. Dependency cases involve allegations of child abuse or neglect against the parents or guardian of a minor. There is no set age.
