This study examines the empirical research on legal representation in delinquency proceedings and situates it in the broader investigation of how states provide legal assistance to juvenile defendants. Our review of empirical studies found that attorney presence was an aggravating factor in dispositional decisions. After closely examining state statutory provisions on legal representation in juvenile delinquency proceedings, we suggest that the penalty effect of attorney presence is an artifact of the variation in state laws governing access and oversight of juvenile counsel. We conclude with suggestions for future research, policy, and practice.

将法律代表权对少年犯罪结果的影响情境化:研究和政策回顾

这项研究审查了关于犯罪诉讼中法律代表的实证研究,并将其置于更广泛的调查中,以调查国家如何向少年被告提供法律援助。我们对实证研究的回顾发现,律师的存在是处分决策的一个加重因素。在仔细研究了有关青少年犯罪诉讼中法律代表制的国家法律规定之后,我们认为律师在场的处罚效果是国家法律中对未成年人律师的获取和监督的变化的产物。最后,我们提出了有关未来研究,政策和实践的建议。
