becoming eighteen years of age. Such a minor shall be dealt with
under the provisions hereof relating to children.

c.   To try, subject to the right of trial by jury unless waived, any
parent, guardian, or other adult for any wilful act or omission con-
tributing to, encouraging, or tending to cause any condition bringing
a child within the jurisdiction of the Court.

d.   For the commitment of a mentally defective child.

927. While sitting under the provisions of this sub-title, the Trial
[Magistrates] Magistrate for Juvenile Causes may exercise any [of
their] general criminal jurisdiction conferred upon a Justice of the
Peace at large designated
as a Trial Magistrate for Prince George's
County.

936 (f). The Division of Parole and Probation shall have super-
vision over all persons, children and adults, placed on probation by
the Judge, and shall keep the Court informed of the status and
progress of all children subject to the jurisdiction of [either] the
Judge [Trial Magistrates] sitting under the provisions of this sub-
title. The Division of Parole and Probation in performing these func-
tions shall work with and through the person, agency, or institution
which has been given custody of the child. They shall submit to the
Judge a report of any substantial violation of probation.

938. (Appeal.) Any interested party aggrieved by any order of
the Judge may, within thirty days after the entry of such order, ap-
peal therefrom to the Circuit Court for Prince George's County. At
the hearing on such appeal, the case shall be heard de novo, and any
issue of fact may be submitted to a jury for determination, or may
be determined by the Circuit Court, sitting as a jury. The Circuit
Court shall enter such order or judgment, within the jurisdiction of
the Trial Magistrate for Juvenile Causes sitting below, as it may
find proper.

The pendency of any such appeal or application therefor with
respect to a child shall not suspend the order of the Judge regarding
such child, nor shall it discharge such child from the custody of the
person, institution, or agency to whose care such child shall have
been committed; provided, however, the Circuit Court, after appeal
has been filed in said Court and on one days notice to the States
Attorney (or without notice if the Court so directs)) may suspend
the operation or effect of such Order of the Magistrate for Juvenile
Causes pending disposition of the appeal and impose such conditions
respecting bail and custody of such child as may by said Court be
determined proper.

SEC. 3. And be it further enacted, That the Governor shall ap-
point a Justice of the Peace at large for Prince George's County,
designated as Trial Magistrate for Juvenile Causes in accordance
with the provisions of this Act, such Magistrate to take office as
such as of the first Monday in May, DAY OF JUNE, 1957, or as soon
thereafter as such appointment is made and the appointee shall
qualify; provided that such appointee shall not receive or be entitled
to receive the salary provided in this Act except for services from
and subsequent to June 1, 1957.
