DATE OF OFFENSE:

NATURE OF OFFENSE: ____

DEAR__________________________:

I HAVE REVIEWED THE FACTS CONCERNING THE OFFENSE
REFERRED TO ABOVE AND HAVE DECIDED NOT TO AUTHORIZE JUVENILE
COURT ACTION. THIS DECISION INCLUDED CONSIDERATION OF THE
FACTS OF THE CASE AND THE JUVENILE'S INVOLVEMENT. HOME,
SCHOOL, AND COMMUNITY ADJUSTMENT ALONG WITH PARENTAL CONCERN
AND CONTROL WERE EXAMINED. PAST HISTORY WITH THE POLICE AND
COURT WAS ALSO CONSIDERED.

THE REASONS FOR THIS DECISION ARE AS FOLLOWS:

__________THE JUVENILE WAS ISSUED A REPRIMAND AND WARNED

AGAINST FUTURE INVOLVEMENT IN DELINQUENT
ACTIVITIES.

_________THE JUVENILE IS CURRENTLY UNDER SUPERVISION OF THE

JUVENILE COURT.

_________ THE JUVENILE WILL RECEIVE INFORMAL SUPERVISION BY

THIS INTAKE OFFICER. THIS WILL INCLUDE
COUNSELING, AND POSSIBLY REFERRAL TO A PROGRAM OR
AGENCY TO FURTHER WORK WITH PROBLEMS SEEN AS
IMPORTANT TO THE JUVENILE'S FUTURE ADJUSTMENT.

_________ THE JUVENILE HAS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED A

PRETRIAL PROGRAM OF INTENSIVE COUNSELING AND
SUPERVISION OF 45 TO 90 DAYS, AND HAS SHOWN A
SATISFACTORY ADJUSTMENT DURING THIS TIME.

THIS CASE IS NOT LEGALLY SUFFICIENT.
