[QUOTE="Steely, post: 47511, member: 3301"] I do not have any experience with the legal system in this capacity either, but I do have a thought. It would seem to me - although I am not sure I am accurate - that if you were able to prove that your son's issues and misconduct were due to a pyschiatric disorder, that this would change the nature of his punishment. Another words, sort of like the Andrea Yates situation, could your son plead "mentally incompetent", so that these charges were being handled more inline with a mentally ill patient rather than a straight juvy case. This would be something your lawyer could implement I would think, and then you would be able to demand that your son receive medications in juvy. Just a thought.....................keep us posted, and I am so sorry you are going through this. [/QUOTE]
