NOTES ON JUVENILE JUSTICE CODE

Abstract

The report deals with the important issues of the Juvenile Justice Code, such as methods of age determination and electronic monitoring. The focus is set on determining the age with the X-rays, which is not namely foreseen in this Code and negative results of the electronic monitoring on the physical and psychological development of a young offender, as well as technical and legal issues of electronic monitoring. The author concludes that these both technical measures are unacceptable for the newly created Georgian Juvenile Justice Criminal code.
