Juvenile Court

Show All Answers

1. How do I find out when my child is going to court?

Call Juvenile Court at (901) 405-8530 and give your name and the name of the child.

2. How do I handle my child who is not obeying the rules of probation?

Call the auxiliary probation officer who has been assigned to your child. Most problems can be resolved by working with that officer.

3. May I bring my child to Juvenile Court and drop them off?

No. Charges initially must be filed with a local law enforcement agency (such as the Memphis Police Department or the Shelby County Sheriff's Department) before a child can be brought to the court by that agency.

4. How do I locate a mental health or substance abuse provider?

The triage probation counselors have access to a resource directory that can sort providers according to your needs.

5. If I live in Shelby County, where do I go to get assistance with my unruly child?
