Advisory Opinion 3-2012
For purposes of detention and return of a person serving a juvenile probation or parole sentence who absconds or flees to avoid prosecution (youth with a warrant from another state) and who has the status of an adult in the home/demanding state (in this case Michigan), but is still classified as a juvenile in the holding state (in this case Ohio), must the holding state treat that person as an adult or does the law of the holding state regarding the age of majority apply?
Advisory Opinion 4-2011
Can a non-adjudicated juvenile offender, such as a youth subject to a deferred adjudication, whose out-of-state placement under the Interstate Compact for Juveniles (ICJ) has failed, be placed in a secure detention center while awaiting return to the sending state?
August 2017: Voluntary Return - Absconder
The rules as well as terms & conditions of youth's probation played an important part to get the youth returned and to educate the youth's family as well.
Joy Swantz, DCA - WI
"In order to help a new ICJO colleague in another Midwest state learn JIDS and dig out from under a huge backlog of assignments, Joy asked to go on-site to the ICJO to assist in person. Joy spent two and a half days training, coaching and encouraging the new staff person, eventually reducing the JIDS assignments count from 286 to 93. Joy saw a need and selflessly shared her own time and skills to make the situation better." - Shelley Hagan, Commissioner, WI
Marisa Ruiz-Sabater, ICJ Supervisor and Emergency Backup - CT
"Marisa, who is my supervisor, is my ICJ emergency back up when I am out of the office or not available. While Marisa does not do the day to day ICJ work, she has worked very hard to understand and implement the Compact when I am out of the office, especially when dealing with runaway cases! She has done a stellar job over the past five years in dealing with the runaway cases. She always promises and tries so hard not to contact me with questions/issues when I am on vacation! She is a wonderful, supportive supervisor. I know that when I am out that the ICJ runaway cases are in good hands.
Robert (Bob) Anderson, Probation Officer - WY
"Robert (Bob) Anderson should be recognized because whenever there is a runaway needing returned or a runaway in his area of Campbell County, he is extremely forthcoming with information on the juvenile and is always willing to go out of his way to drop the juvenile off at the nearest airport which could be in his area or it could be an hour south of him.
Stephen Horton, Deputy Compact Administrator - NC
"I want to express my deep appreciation for the help and support that Stephen Horton and Rachel Johnson provided to me. I’m new to ICJ and had only been in my position for about two months at the time. My supervisor was out of the office for the week; although she made herself available to me at any time, I didn’t want to disturb her if I didn’t have to. Fortunately, I would have my first return by air the week she was out. Of course, I wanted my first return to be perfect but that wasn’t the case. Everything was going smoothly until the plane’s departure was delayed for several hours.
