When an inmate is arraigned in a Municipal Court and the court finds the new booking to be under 18 years of age, the court will certify the inmate to Juvenile Court. The Court Lockup Deputy, upon receipt of the Juvenile Certification (Appendix XV), will notify the Transportation Bureau Watch Sergeant of the situation.
The certified juvenile shall be segregated from the adult inmates and dealt with as a juvenile. The juvenile and the Juvenile Certification will be delivered to Eastlake Juvenile Hall, by the first available transportation.
An inmate who is remanded to the Sheriff's custody and later in court determined to be a juvenile, will be returned to the custody facility along with the Juvenile Certification papers. The transporting Deputy will inform the custody facility Receiving Deputy that the inmate has been certified as a juvenile and is to be processed for release to Eastlake Juvenile Hall.
