Opening juvenile hearings changes Maryland court reporting
A Maryland newspaper explains why juvenile court proceedings, once sealed, have been open for about ten months. The change followed a 1996 General Assembly act and Governor Glendening signature, allowing public access to delinquency cases that would be felonies if adults. The paper notes limited staff to attend all hearings, but emphasizes accountability for youths and victims.
