A complaint is made to the intake counselor of the court who evaluates the case and determines if it should go to court. If so determined, the counselor approves the complaint. The juvenile is notified that a petition has been filed when a summons to appear in court and a copy of the juvenile petition are served on the juvenile and his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
