Parental Function

Critics of the contemporary juvenile court have claimed that its failure to make rehabilitative dispositions necessitates extending to children the same constitutional safeguards accorded to adults accused of crime. Supporters of the court argue that its exercise of the parental function of the state (parens patriae) generally works in the child's behalf and therefore lessens the need to define and protect the constitutional rights of juvenile delinquents.

An Automobile Accident Is Reconstructed From Photographs Taken At The Scene By The California Highway Patrol. The Plaintiff Attorney Claimed That There Should Have Been A Protected Left Turn Lane. The State Claimed That The Accident Was Not Caused By The Absence Of A Left Turn Pocket And Was The Result Of Driver Error. This Paper Describes How The Accident Was Reconstructed By The Author Using Only Photo-Graphs Taken By The Chp And First Principles Of Physics. This Reconstruction Is Compared To That Of The Plaintiff Expert Who Used The Commercial Computer Program Pc-Crash.

On behalf of the City of Lockhart (the City), TRC Environmental Corporation (TRC) recently conducted an intensive archeological survey for the City’s sidewalk improvements project located in Lockhart, Caldwell County, Texas. According to design plans, the project will entail the construction of a 10-foot (ft) wide by 2,220 ft long concrete sidewalk that will enhance connectivity and accessibility through Lockhart City Park (Figures 1-1 and 1-2). The Area of Potential Effects (APE) is 0.98 acres in size (Appendix A: Design Plans). Concrete path construction will cause disturbance of up to one foot below the existing grade along the alignment of the path. As the project will be located on lands under purview of an entity of the State of Texas, the project is subject to compliance with the Antiquities Code of Texas (ACT). During coordination with the Texas Historical Commission (THC) it was determined that the APE located east of State Highway (Hwy) 183 would require survey prior to construction (Appendix B: Regulatory Correspondence). Archeological survey was conducted on October 8, 2019 by Benjamin Johnson and Steven Sarich and on October 17, 2019 by Pollyanna Clark, Josh Haefner, Benjamin Johnson and Steven Sarich. During the survey, five shovel tests were excavated and four no dig locations were recorded. Due to the proximity of the APE to marked graves, the presence of the broken grave marker deposited downslope, and the inaccuracy of the currently mapped cemetery boundary on the THC Atlas, TRC recommended that the portion of the APE that coincides with the Lockhart Cemetery be subject to machine scraping. On November 5, 2019 the survey area was revisited to conduct mechanical scraping where the APE was noted to be in proximity to marked burials. No evidence of any cultural materials or grave shafts were encountered during monitoring of scraping.

Abstract Using speeding citations from the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, this paper examines whether out-of-state drivers face different enforcement standards than in-state drivers. Discrimination effects are identified by assuming exogenous differences in license plate design affect troopers’ abilities to identify out-of-state drivers. The pattern of citations for difficult to identify out-of-state drivers is significantly different from (indeed, stricter than) the pattern for more easily identifiable out-of-state drivers. I take this as evidence of troopers attempting to apply different enforcement standards to out-of-state drivers. One explanation is troopers attempting to deter in-state speeders whose behavior may be more sensitive to enforcement.

O estudo pretende compreender a dinâmica dos diversos tipos de ocupações implantadas no entorno da Rodovia Estadual GO- 060, entre a cidade de Goiânia (GO) e Trindade (GO), e os seus reflexos na mobilidade urbana. O problema se identifica na relação causa e efeito no conflito entre o espaço urbano e o sistema de transportes, em áreas conurbadas da Região Metropolitana de Goiânia (GO). O objetivo consiste em analisar as áreas de ocupação do recorte espacial, o fluxo veicular dos modos de transportes e o índice de mobilidade, em função das tipologias de ocupação, caracterizadas como polos geradores de viagens (PGVs). Para se identificar tais ocorrências, foram utilizadas metodologias adaptadas para análise espaço-temporal e redes. Os resultados mostraram as diferenças em áreas de ocupação nos PGVs Tipo Comércio/Indústria 25,74% e 30,77% e Tipo Residencial 11,41% e 38,78% para as Regiões Oeste/Mendanha e Trindade 2, para os períodos (2011/2016) e (2009/2015), respectivamente.  Essa dinâmica ocupacional gerou um aumento de +87% no total de viagens do fluxo dos diversos modos de transporte e um acréscimo de +79% no índice de mobilidade para o período de 2013 a 2016, mostrando a tendência de motorização das regiões e os reflexos na mobilidade urbana.

The problem is identified in the cause and effect relationship in the conflict between urban space and the transport system in conurbated areas of the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia (GO). The objective is to analyze the areas of occupation of the spatial area, the vehicular flow of the modes of transport and the mobility index, according to the types of occupation, characterized as travel generating poles (TGPs). To identify such occurrences, methodologies adapted for spatiotemporal analysis and networks were used. The results showed the differences in occupation areas in the Trade / Industry Type 25.74% and 30.77% and Residential Type 11.41% and 38.78% for the West / Mendanha and Trindade 2 Regions for the periods (2011/2016) and (2009/2015) respectively. This occupational dynamic generated an increase of + 87% in the total travel flow of the different modes of transport and an increase of + 79% in the mobility index for the period from 2013 to 2016, showing the trend of motorization in the regions and the reflexes in urban mobility.  Keywords: Spatial occupation.

Le problème s’identifie dans la relation de cause à effet dans le conflit entre espace urbain et système de transport, dans les aires urbanisées de la Région Métropolitaine de Goiânia (GO). L’objectif est d’analyser les zones d’occupation du découpage spatial, le flux routier des modes de transport et l’indice de mobilité selon les typologies d’occupation, caractérisées comme pôles générateurs de voyages (PGVs). L’identification de ces faits s’est réalisée par l’utilisation de méthodologies adaptées à l’analyse spatio-temporelle et de réseaux. Les résultats montrent des différences de PGVs dans les zones d’occupation du type Commerce/Industrie 25,74% et 30,77% et du type résidentiel 11,41% et 38,78% pour les régions Ouest/Mendanha et Trindade 2, respectivement pour les périodes (2011/2016) et (2009/2015). Cette dynamique d’occupation révèle une augmentation de +87% du total de voyages de flux des différents modes de transport et une croissance de +79% de l’indice de mobilité pour la période de 2013 à 2016, montrant la tendance de motorisation des régions et ses reflets sur la mobilité urbaine.

Several U.S. states are considering setting or raising a minimum age of juvenile court jurisdiction. However, there is scant evidence to suggest if a state minimum age law would protect children from developmentally inappropriate proceedings beyond existing capacity and competency statutes. To address this central question, this case study focuses on the state of California and considers (a) existing state laws, (b) state juvenile crime data, and (c) opinions of diverse juvenile justice stakeholders. Triangulated analysis found that a low number of California children below the age of 12 years are petitioned in juvenile court and most are referred for misdemeanor or status offenses. Existing legal protections are present yet inconsistently implemented. A minimum age law would address some of these policy gaps.
