1 janv. 1899 - The Cook County Juvenile Court

Description:

The court was established through legislation reflecting a new attitude that children should be treated differently due to their underdeveloped cognitive and emotional status.

This court operated in a less formal manner than adult courts, discouraging what could be interpreted as intimidating features such as opposing attorneys, adversarial testimony, and merely objective legal terminology.
