All minors who appear in juvenile court must be represented by an attorney. Questions regarding your childs case should be directed to your childs attorney. It is improper for the States Attorney to discuss your childs case without your childs attorney being present. If you cannot afford an attorney, an attorney will be appointed who can answer your questions after the initial court hearing.
