Under which condition can a juvenile be taken into custody?

A juvenile can be taken into custody under a capias, which is a type of warrant issued by a judge that directs law enforcement to take a specific individual into custody. This legal document allows officers to apprehend a juvenile who is wanted for failing to appear in court or for any other legal obligations. The issuance of a capias signifies that there is a judicial determination that warrants the juvenile’s apprehension, making it a lawful basis for taking a juvenile into custody.

In the context of this question, parental consent, notification of school, and a warning by an officer do not provide the necessary legal authority for the police to take a juvenile into custody. While these factors may play roles in other processes or interactions, they do not constitute the formal legal basis required for custody as defined by law. The proper procedure must be followed, and a capias serves that purpose effectively in cases involving juveniles.
