5.01.110 Detention or Commitment to Adult Institution; Contact with Adults

When any juvenile is adjudicated delinquent under the Turtle Mountain Juvenile Court and it is determined by the Court that the juvenile must be detained or committed to any institution in which adults are confined, it shall be unlawful to permit such juvenile to come or remain in contact with adults. If a juvenile is waived into adult court for offenses, which if committed by an adult, constitutes a crime, and determination of guilt is proven to the Court, the juvenile is subject to the same incarceration procedures as would be an adult.
