Describe a detention hearing and the purpose of the hearing.
What will be an ideal response?
A detention hearing determines whether a juvenile will be detained. The hearing must be held shortly after arrest, generally within 48–72 hr, not including weekends and national holidays. In large urban areas, 24-hr intake units may make detainment decisions within a few hours of arrest. These hearings can occur at three points: (1) at the time youths are brought in by law enforcement; (2) during or after a review to determine if referral to juvenile court is appropriate; or (3) after the adjudicatory hearing
