Introduction
The Nebraska Juvenile Justice System 2019 Statistical Annual Report meets the requirements of Nebraska Revised Statute § 24-1007 (2014). This report is compiled by the Administrative Office of the Courts and Probation (AOCP). The report contains statistics on Juvenile Justice (status offense and juvenile delinquency) cases and on juveniles prosecuted in the adult court system. A status offense is an act that is prohibited because of the juvenile status of the person, but is not illegal if committed by an adult. Juvenile delinquency cases involve a violation of a law applicable regardless of juvenile or adult status. This report provides statistical information on juveniles in the justice system. The data presented show caseload statistics by case type, geography and demographics.
The data in this report was extracted from the Supreme Court’s Judicial User System to Improve Court Efficiency (JUSTICE), a case-based data storage system comprised of clerk entries of information from relevant court documents. Tables with court data report statistics on cases for youth ages 17 and under at the time of the offense. The Part (d) Juvenile Probation Activity tables are provided from the case management system, Nebraska Probation Application for Community Safety (NPACS). These tables report activity for juveniles ages 18 and under receiving probation services in the year.
The report contains a statewide section and 12 judicial district sections. Each district section has district summary tables followed by county data for that judicial district. If there is no data for a county, that county is not included in the table. All geographic tables include demographic statistics by age, gender and race/ethnicity if there is data for that group. If not expressly written on trial court forms, age, gender and/or race/ethnicity may be unknown to court personnel responsible for JUSTICE data entry and will be included as “Unknown” in this report.
For the majority of the report, age demographic groupings are based on the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Exceptions are noted in the report. Age groups used in this report are: 10 & Under; 11-13; 14-15; 16; and 17 and are based on Nebraska Revised Statutes 43-246.01 and 43-247 regarding allowable ages in juvenile court jurisdiction.
The number of "Unknown" demographics are not included in the percentage calculation in tables where percentages are calculated for demographic groups as a percentage of the total. This allows the "valid" percent to be displayed where demographics are known. In these instances, the percent column remains blank for the "Unknown" category. The "Unknown" group will have a percent value in tables where the percentage is calculated using the total cases for the demographic group.

Part (a) Juvenile Petitions and AdjudicationsNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (a) Juveniles prosecuted in juvenile court under subdivision (1), (2), (3)(b), or (4) of section 43-247, including the total number of filings and adjudications.
The Juvenile Petitions and Adjudications tables report the number of new juvenile cases and corresponding percent of adjudications by case type and demographic group for cases filed in 2019. The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December of 2019 may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.
Out of 3,910 juvenile cases statewide, there
are 2,703 (69%) adjudications in 2019.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case Type Nebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2017. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Part (c) Motions to Transfer Cases and Cases TransferredNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (c) The number of motions to transfer and the number of cases transferred to adult court from juvenile court and from adult criminal court to juvenile court.
The data represents motions to transfer filed in 2019 and transfers between court jurisdiction which occurred in 2019. Therefore, the exact same set of cases may not be represented in both columns. There can be multiple motions to transfer within a single case which, if filed in the same calendar year, would all be included in the counts below. Some cases may have a motion to transfer, but no transfer actually occurs or it occurs in a subsequent year. Transfers occur once per case.

Part (d) Juvenile Probation - Risk Level and Length of ProbationNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (d) Juveniles placed on juvenile probation, the number of juveniles on probation in out-of-home care, the number of juveniles completing probation, the number of motions to revoke probation and probation revocations, and the average length of time on probation.
Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results for youth who entered probation in 2019, and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in 2019. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to Counsel
Nebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during calendar year 2019. Cases filed in 2019 may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

Part (f) Juvenile Rates of RecidivismNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (f) Rates of recidivism.
The recidivism table is based on probation youth that were successfully discharged in 2018 and whether or not the youth received a new adjudication and/or adult conviction within one year of their probation discharge date. See Appendix III § 1-1001. Uniform definitions of recidivism for Nebraska State Probation and Nebraska Problem-Solving Courts for a complete definition of recidivism. The data is a combination of the Administrative Office of the Courts and Probation’s separate databases. Probation youth recidivism is counted once per youth with the most serious offense reported.
Overall, 1,426 (78%) youth did not
recidivate in 2019.

Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case TypeNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

Part (a) Juvenile Petitions and AdjudicationsNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (a) Juveniles prosecuted in juvenile court under subdivision (1), (2), (3)(b), or (4) of section 43-247, including the total number of filings and adjudications.
The Juvenile Petitions and Adjudications tables report the number of new juvenile cases and corresponding percent of adjudications by case type and demographic group for cases filed in 2019. The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case TypeNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Part (d) Juvenile Probation - Youth Risk Level and Length of ProbationNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (d) Juveniles placed on juvenile probation, the number of juveniles on probation in out-of-home care, the number of juveniles completing probation, the number of motions to revoke probation and probation revocations, and the average length of time on probation.
Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The Juvenile Petitions and Adjudications tables report the number of new juvenile cases and corresponding percent of adjudications by case type and demographic group for cases filed in 2019. The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The Juvenile Petitions and Adjudications tables report the number of new juvenile cases and corresponding percent of adjudications by case type and demographic group for cases filed in 2019. The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case TypeNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Part (d) Juvenile Probation ActivityNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (d) Juveniles placed on juvenile probation, the number of juveniles on probation in out-of-home care, the number of juveniles completing probation, the number of motions to revoke probation and probation revocations, and the average length of time on probation.
The Juvenile Probation Activity - Youth data is provided from the case management system, Nebraska Probation Application for Community Safety (NPACS). The table reports the number and percent of youth with various activity in 2019. Youth are counted once in each category, regardless of the number of out-of-home placements, motions to revoke, or cases they may have in the court system. Age groups are calculated specific to the activity as footnoted.

Part (d) Juvenile Probation - Youth Risk Level and Length of ProbationNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (d) Juveniles placed on juvenile probation, the number of juveniles on probation in out-of-home care, the number of juveniles completing probation, the number of motions to revoke probation and probation revocations, and the average length of time on probation.
Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case TypeNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables include criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. All sentencing types are included where multiple sentencing types occur within a case (ex. probation/jail). Youth who are sentenced to probation in Adult Court are supervised by Adult Probation.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

The Juvenile Petitions and Adjudications tables report the number of new juvenile cases and corresponding percent of adjudications by case type and demographic group for cases filed in 2019. The data consists of both county court and separate juvenile court cases. Only the most serious offense is counted for cases with multiple offenses, pleas or findings. Cases are counted in the Adjudicated column if at least one offense was admitted to in court. Supplemental petitions are not included in this data set. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense. Cases filed in November or December may not have reached the adjudication stage of proceedings. Juvenile cases where the age is unknown, if any, are included in the report.

Part (b) Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court - Case TypeNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (b) Juveniles prosecuted in adult criminal court for felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic offenses. The information shall include juveniles sentenced to terms in adult jails and prisons and juveniles placed on adult probation.
Juveniles Prosecuted in Adult Criminal Court tables consist of criminal and traffic cases in county court and criminal cases in district court that reached the point of sentencing in 2019. Cases with multiple charges are counted once per case and reported as the most severe offense. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense.

Part (d) Juvenile Probation ActivityNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (d) Juveniles placed on juvenile probation, the number of juveniles on probation in out-of-home care, the number of juveniles completing probation, the number of motions to revoke probation and probation revocations, and the average length of time on probation.
The Juvenile Probation Activity - Youth data is provided from the case management system, Nebraska Probation Application for Community Safety (NPACS). The table reports the number and percent of youth with various activity in 2019. Youth are counted once in each category, regardless of the number of out-of-home placements, motions to revoke, or cases they may have in the court system. Age groups are calculated specific to the activity as footnoted.

Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) is an assessment tool used to systematically measure risk for recidivism and appropriate supervision intensity for youth on probation. The following table shows the classification results of youth who entered probation in the year and a separate set of youth that discharged from probation in the year. Youth that are assessed at low or moderate low risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) supervision and those assessed at high or moderate high risk are matched to Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) supervision intensity.

Part (e) Juveniles Access to CounselNebraska Revised Statute 24-1007 (e) juveniles with and without access to counsel in juvenile and adult court, both appointed and retained.
The Juveniles Access to Counsel table displays the percent of juveniles represented by an attorney in criminal cases from county court and district court and juvenile cases from county court and separate juvenile court. Data includes new cases filed and cases transfered from one county to another during the calendar year. Cases filed in the year may not have reached the sentencing/adjudication stage of proceedings. Cases for juveniles ages 13 and below must be filed and stay in juvenile court. Exceptions are some traffic case types where the county attorney has the option to file in criminal or juvenile court and instances where the offense was discovered after the juvenile was an adult. Therefore, the vast majority of juvenile cases appearing in adult criminal court data are for ages 14 through 17 at the time of the offense. Age is reported as the age of the juvenile at the time of the offense.

Appendix II Probation Definitions
The Probation information was collected from the Nebraska Probation Application for community Safety (NPACS) case management system. Traditional probationers and Problem Solving Court probationers are included in this analysis. The following are explanations of the data.
1. Youth Level of Service/ Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI) score: Youth Placed on Probation – Initial Classification based on YLS/CMI Level provides an analysis of the number of youth whose first YLS/CMI score would place them in the Juvenile Community-Based Resource (JCBR) classification, or the Juvenile Community-Based Intervention (JCBI) classification. JCBR are commonly referred to as the low risk youth and their cases are managed accordingly, while the JCBI youth have scores of moderate high, high or very high. JCBI youth have more supervision requirements to address their high risk. Some youth do not have an YLS/CMI assessment completed before their probation is terminated. This can be due to a brief probation term, or successful completion of pre-adjudicated services.
2. Placed on Probation: the count of all youth that were formally placed on Probation between January 1 and December 31 of the previous year.
3. Placed Out of Home: this information is a count of all youth who were placed in an out of home placement (OHP) at some point during the calendar year. This information represents the number of youth that were out of home, not the number of placements. For example, one youth may be out of home in detention, move to a shelter and eventually transition home. The youth would be counted once even though they had two different OHP. If a youth is placed in OHP on their 19th birthday prior to being released from Probation, the youth is included in the placed at 18 years old age bracket and the appropriate gender, race and ethnicity group.
4. Motion to Revoke: the count of all youth that received a motion to revoke on any of their active cases in the report year. A youth may have multiple court cases being processed concurrently, but the youth would only be counted once in this report.
5. Revocations Only: the number of youth that had probation revoked on one or more cases. Individual youth are counted and not the number of cases that were revoked. When a motion to revoke is filed, the court has several options that they can pursue including: revoking the probation case and terminating the probation term, extending the probation term, sending the youth to YRTC and continuing probation after that placement, or dismissing the motion to revoke. For this category, only those youth whose cases were revoked and terminated in the reporting period are included. Further details regarding revocations can be found in the Juvenile Probation’s Detailed Analysis.
6. Successful Discharge: the number of youth who were successfully discharged from Probation, during the year, on one or more court cases. Successful completion includes completion of pre-adjudication, pre-disposition, traditional probation, early release and YRTC probation. Length of Probation is provided in months. Some youth may be listed as discharged from probation without an official start date. These are youth that may have completed pre-adjudication or pre-dispositional services. These youth are not officially disposed to probation but there is a court case completion/discharge date entered because the court case is closed. Some youth will also appear to be discharged at 19 or later due to the time lapse between court proceeding and case closure. Youth can also be discharged past 19 years old if Nebraska Probation is providing interstate probation supervision.
7. All Discharges YLS: this information contains a listing of youth that were discharged during the report year. Age is presented at time of probation start (which may be prior to the report year), and age at time of discharge. Length of probation is displayed in months. Some youth may be listed as discharged from probation without an official start date. These are youth that may have completed pre-adjudication or pre-dispositional services. These youth are not officially disposed to probation but there is a court case completion/discharge date entered because the court case is closed. A final YLS/CMI score and classification is also provided for any analysis on the number of youth that were discharged at each level. It is not uncommon for there to be more youth at a JCBR level discharged as opposed to JCBI. This is due to the process of stepping high risk youth down to a lower supervision level before discharging them from probation.
274 Nebraska Juvenile Justice System Statistical Annual Report: 2019
Age calculations
1. Youth placed on probation: age at which their probation term began during that calendar year.
2. Out of home placement: age at the first admission to out of home placement during that calendar year.
3. Motions to Revoke: age at which the motion to revoke was filed/created during that calendar year.
4. Probation Revoked: age on the date which the disposition for the motion to revoke was applied during that calendar year.
5. Satisfactory Release: age on the date which the disposition for discharge from probation occurred during that calendar year.
6. Initial Risk Level: age at which their probation term began during that calendar year. Youth are assessed just prior to or after they begin their probation term. For consistency, the age when they began their probation term was calculated.
7. Final Risk Level: age on the date which the disposition for discharge from probation occurred during that calendar year. Youth may be assessed within six months of their release. For consistency, the age when they were discharged from probation was calculated and reported in regards to their final risk assessment level.
8. Length of Probation: age on the date which the disposition for discharge from probation occurred during that calendar year.

Appendix III § 1-1001. Uniform definitions of recidivism for Nebraska State Probation and Nebraska Problem-Solving Courts
For the purpose of accurately assessing post-program recidivism across justice programs, Nebraska State Probation and Nebraska Problem-Solving Courts shall utilize the following uniform definitions of recidivism for all adults and juveniles within their respective programs.
(A) Adults:
As applied to adults, recidivism shall mean a final conviction of a Class I or II misdemeanor, a Class IV felony or above, or a Class W misdemeanor based on a violation of state law or an ordinance of any city or village enacted in conformance with state law, within 3 years of being successfully released.
(B) Juveniles:
(1) As applied to juveniles, recidivism shall mean that within 1 year of being successfully released from a probation or problem-solving court program the juvenile has:
(a) an adjudication pursuant to Neb. Rev. Stat. § 43-247(1) or (2).
(b) for a juvenile 14 years or older, a final conviction for a Class W misdemeanor based on a violation of state traffic laws or ordinances of any city or village enacted in conformance with state law; or
(c) a prosecution and final conviction as an adult for any crimes set forth in subsection (A) above.
(2) For juveniles that age out of the juvenile system within 1 year of program exit and who did not recidivate post-program as juveniles, the adult definition of post-program recidivism, including any drug-related or alcohol-related conviction, shall apply.
§ 1-1001 adopted September 25, 2013.
