Although juveniles are not entitled to all of the due process procedures provided in an ordinary criminal trial, they are entitled to receive sufficient due process to ensure fair treatment. Therefore, due process requirements for young people subject to the ICJ vary greatly depending upon whether they are being returned due to a warrant, as an accused delinquent, probation/parole absconder, or escapee; being retaken after a transfer of supervision; or being returned as runaway. Hearing requirements for each case type are outlined in the relevant ICJ Rules.
