Legal Question in Juvenile Dependency in California
minor..
my son was taken in by police officers,two days prior to e-mail. police claim he was kept for grandtheft. they notified me of the incident and I said arrest him,without knowledge of details of the incident. police later the same day,rang me to come and retrive my child.
I was notified by a woman,that my child was photographed and is now contained in the system of naughty children.
My son is to see a public defender in july.
what questions,should I prepare for him or her?
What are my rights?
what are my son's rights?
Thank-you,
parent..

Re: minor..
You demanded that your -son- be arrested?? Without any knowledge of the incident or even listening to his side of the story? You couldn't just starve him or leave him in a snowbank to freeze to death? Now you are going to leave him to the public defender instead of hiring a private lawyer to defend him??!? Do you understand that the public defender is for people who want to plead guilty? You do realize that it is possible that with a serious crime on his record he will never be able to get a job, ever??
