Description
Juvenile Law and Its Processes: Cases and Materials 3rd Edition Francis McCarthy ISBN 9780820558011
This book introduces students to the substantive areas of juvenile delinquency, child abuse, and status offenses while also providing historical and contemporary data to help them understand the theories underlying juvenile law and the impact of evolving legal systems. The Third Edition of Juvenile Law and Its Process is guided by several key objectives.
First, it familiarizes students with the structure and procedures of juvenile court proceedings.
Second, it equips students with factual and current data so they can meaningfully participate in the ongoing societal debate about the purpose and future direction of the legal system governing children.
Third, it develops students’ understanding of the substantive law, theories, and advocacy strategies needed to provide zealous and effective representation for children.
Finally, it offers opportunities for students to apply what they have learned through sophisticated juvenile law problems and simulations that also raise challenging ethical issues.
New areas of emphasis in this edition include an expanded chapter on third-party rights involving grandparents, de facto parents, relatives, and siblings; coverage of contemporary disposition alternatives such as Youth Court and Drug Court; and extensive empirical data on arrests, delinquency dispositions, child abuse and neglect filings, custody placements, and termination of parental rights.
A notable addition is the inclusion of two complete juvenile law case files. The first centers on a child dependency matter in which the state could proceed as an adult criminal case, a delinquency case, a status offense, or a dependency action. The second focuses on a juvenile delinquency proceeding and includes the petition, arrest reports, minute orders, and a probation officer’s report. The accompanying Teacher’s Manual (available to professors only) provides detailed guidance on using these case files in class discussions and simulations.

Rental Terms
Return by May 25, 2027 for Spring 2027 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it early and shipping it back within 30 days of your order date gets you a refund minus a 15% restocking fee and the label cost. After 30 days, an early return is free, with no refund.
- 30-Day Refund Window
- Changed your mind? Cancel before your book ships and it’s free: open the order under My Account → Orders and click Cancel next to the book. Once it has shipped, you can return a rental for a refund from My Account → My Rentals. To qualify, the book must be shipped back within 30 days of your order date. We refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable. A rental shipped back after 30 days is a regular end-of-semester return, with no refund.
