Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“1. A youth is considered an absconder if he/she “goes in a clandestine manner out of the jurisdiction of the courts in order to avoid legal process[,”] or “to hide, conceal, or absent oneself clandestinely, with the intent to avoid legal process[.”] a. The juvenile probation officer must have cause to believe that the youth is deliberately avoiding supervision or has removed himselfiherself from the home or community to avoid supervision and the legal process. A youth reported by the parent(s)/guardian(s) to have run away without the parent(s’)/guardian(s’) knowledge of their whereabouts, is considered to be an absconder. b. There must be intent to avoid the legal process. Simple absence or not appearing for appointments does not constitute absconding, but may constitute a technical violation of the conditions of probation.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“It’s not like she was over, staying with her grandmother, where everybody knew where she was. She was avoiding her JPO. She was avoiding her mother. She was not available to be supervised, as she is required to be. And she was apparently, secreting herself, hiding herself, concealing herself in a clandestine-manner, out of the jurisdiction [of the] court, to avoid the legal process.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“It is not for us, as judges, to question the wisdom of the legislation. Rather, our task is simply to carry it out. Section 985.255 establishes the criteria for detaining a child, pending the outcome of a juvenile delinquency case. A decision to detain a child must be made according to the statutory criteria.”
