Among the multiple issues raised dealing with the future of the juvenile process, legal issues appear to predominate. These issues have taken on new momentum since the Gault case, but have become of increasing concern for at least the last decade (In re Gault, 1967). Such issues as a timely notice for a hearing, content of such notices, the vagueness and in-definiteness of statutes pertaining to pleadings, right to counsel, right to confrontation of witnesses, and the privilege against self-incrimination have been guaranteed to juveniles under due process. In connection with the question of this paper, it should be noted that Gault applied only to proceedings in which the determination of delinquency could result in a commitment to an institution in which the freedom of the juvenile would thus be curtailed. Additional legal issues can be raised as well, focused on the various stages of apprehension, intake, adjudication, and sentencing. Such matters in the juvenile process as discovery, right to a speedy trial, public proceedings, jury trial, and change of venue, are some related due process issues which still remain basically unsettled in different jurisdictions
