CHAPTER 344
An Act to amend and reenact §§ 16.1-194 through 16.1-197 of the Code
of Virginia, relating to arrest, transportation, confinement or detention
and release of juveniles. [H 54]
Approved March 29, 1958
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That §§ 16.1-194 through 16.1-197 of the Code of Virginia be amended
and reenacted as follows:
§ 16.1-194. No child may be taken into immediate custody except:
(1) With a summons endorsed by the judge of the juvenile court in
accordance with the provisions of this law or with a warrant; or
__ (2) When, in the presence of the officer who makes the arrest, a
child has violated a city, town, or county ordinance or a State or federal
penal law and the officer believes that such is necessary for the protection
of the public interest; or
(3) When the officer finds a child in such surroundings or condition
that he considers it necessary that he take the child into immediate custody
for the child’s welfare; or
(4) When there is good cause to believe that a child has committed
an offense which if committed by an adult would be a felony * ; or
(5) When a child who has been committed to the State Board or some
other agency escapes from the custody of the agency to which he was com-
pitied. ie the officer has knowledge of such fact; in which case no process
is needed.
§ 16.1-195. No warrant of arrest shall be issued for any child known
or alleged to be under the age of fourteen years except when authorized
by the judge or clerk of a juvenile court or a judge or clerk of a court of
record, or for a child known or alleged to be between the ages of fourteen
and eighteen years except when use of such process is imperative.
§ 16.1-196. No person known or alleged to be under the age of
eighteen years shall be transported or conveyed in a police patrol wagon,
or confined in any police station, prison, jail or lockup, or be transpo
or detained in association with criminals or vicious or dissolute persons;
except that a child fourteen years of age or older may, with the consent
of the judge, clerk or the juvenile probation officer, be placed in a jail or
other place of detention for adults in a room or ward entirely separate
from adults.
§ 16.1-197. Whenever a child under the age of eighteen years is
taken into custody * the officer taking custody, depending upon the cir-
cumstances existing at the time custody is taken, shall use the following
procedure or such appropriate parts thereof:
(1) If it is during such hours as the court is open, take the child
immediately to the judge, clerk or probation officer, who may release the
child to the custody of a parent, guardian, custodian or other person used
by the court, either on bail or recognizance or otherwise; or the * said
judge, clerk or probation officer may order * the child * detained in such
manner as it determines, subject to further order of the court: or
(2) If at such hours when the court is not open, the child may be
released to the custody of a parent, guardian or custodian upon promise of
such parent, guardian or custodian to bring the child to the court at such
time as is fixed by rules of the court; or
(8) The officer may deliver the child to a probation officer, welfare
worker or police officer assigned to juvenile cases.
However, in any case where the child fourteen years of age or over
when taken into custody resists, or is in a drunken condition, or if the
officer taking custody deems it to be to the best interest of the child, or
in the best interest of the public, or it is otherwise impractical or inadvis-
able to follow the aforesaid steps, then said officer after obtaining a war-
rant from any person authorized to issue criminal warrants may take
said child to the special place of detention for juveniles or to a separate
cell of the jail apart from criminals or vicious or dissolute persons. .
Immediately upon a child being placed in a detention home or jaal
under this section, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical, the
officer taking the child into custody or another officer at his direction s
notify the judge of the juvenile court, its clerk, or probation officer of such
detention, and shall request that the judge or clerk issue a proper process
and order of commitment therefor; the officer shall thereafter notify or
cause to be notified as soon as is practical a parent, guardian, or other
person having custody of the child of said detention.
