Initial Juvenile Delinquent (JD) Petitions Filed and Disposed by County
Family Courts handle cases involving youth who are 12-17 and have a juvenile
delinquency (JD) petition filed after a referral from a presentment agency: either the New York City
Corporation Counsel’s Office or a County Attorney’s Office in the counties outside of New York
City. These cases include those involving 16- and 17-year-olds charged with felonies (adolescent
offenders) and 13-, 14-, and 15-year olds charged with certain serious felonies (juvenile offenders)
that were removed from Youth Part of Criminal Court to Family Court.
