Can you appear in juvenile court with someone other than your legal guardian?


And if you do what will happen? How would they even know?

need answers today!

Generally, no.

In most states, a juvenile court complaint is actually filed against your parents or legal guardian. They have to go to court to tell the judge why you should not be made a temporary ward of the court, subject to the court's jurisdiction, so that you can be tried on criminal charges.

How will they know? They check ID and backgrounds.

**** don't do that . i do know . first your a minor ..second a minor don't have any rights in the court thats what the judge told me so i tried him on it . let me tell u something u don t do that ......... you can have a attorney if u can get one . if not they will happly give u one .. but remember that attorney works for the system. i know because i had one and she got me locked up more than my smartass mouth did.

They're more than likely going to check for ID, and if you aren't there with your legal guardian, they'll reschedule your court date.

if ur doing it to get out of letting ur parents know u can get contempt of court and jail time if ur parents just won't be there for you they will go to jail. they will know and or ask for ID
