Under Art. 42.12 sec. 15, the Judge is required to grant community supervision for certain state jail felony drug cases as long as the defendant has not been convicted of a felony. Does this include juvenile adjudications?? | ||

Just as juveniles don't have the mandatory incarceration on DWIs. Remember - we don't punish them, we rehabilitate them. Disposition of a juvenile is still supposed to at least offer lip service to the progressive sanctions guidelines, which would mean that a state jail felony committed by a first offender would generally be a level 3 offense which is normally court ordered probation. If there is a reason to deviate, it may include placement, boot camp, or something like that. See Chapter 59 of the Family Code. | |||
