Juvenile Civil Citation - The Juvenile Civil Citation Program, authorized by Florida Statute 985.12, is the pre-arrest diversion program that empowers Deputies to issue a civil citation to juveniles for community service hours in lieu of arrest and formal prosecution for misdemeanor offenses. The juveniles receive a timely consequence for their crime and have the opportunity to give back to their community.
