  • Summary: Establishes procedures for checking and serving juvenile warrants.
  • Effective Date: 10-07-2008
  • See other versions

Policy

Anytime a juvenile is detained or arrested, officers shall check the juvenile for NCIC wants and local warrants. Officers may contact MECC or JDC Intake for local warrant checks. Juveniles taken into custody for a warrant and no other offense should be transported to JDC or other facility as directed on the warrant. Officers shall complete a CAPRS report coded WT.

In circumstances which juveniles are found to have an outstanding warrant from another county, officers shall contact JDC to determine where the juvenile will be placed.

Adults found to have an outstanding Hennepin County juvenile warrant (as the only offense) shall be booked at JDC. Officers encountering adults found to have an outstanding juvenile warrant from another county should contact JDC Intake to determine what facility the individual will be transported to. Officers shall complete a CAPRS report coded WT.

When a juvenile is arrested for a PC Pick-Up, prior to transport, the arresting officer(s) shall attempt to contact the appropriate investigative unit. If the investigative unit cannot be reached, the juvenile shall be transported directly to JDC. Officers will complete the JDC Authority to Detain form and note the original offense, not PCPKUP. Officers shall generate a new CCN and complete a CAPRS report coded PCPKUP. The original CCN shall be referenced in the “Related CCN” data field. In addition, the arresting officer(s) shall notify the Transcription Unit to cancel the PC Pick-Up.
