Juveniles are not given all the constitutional rights that adults have when charged with a crime. They do have the right to remain silent, the right to testify in their own defense, the right to subpoena witnesses or other evidence, the right to cross-examine the witnesses against them, the right to proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and the right to a trial.nnJuvenile defendants do not have the right to a jury trial, however. If they take their case to trial, it will be a bench trial, and a family court judge will make the final decision in their case.
