Abstract

The Law (LO 5/2000, January 12th) regulates the young responsibility, the law is a guarantor that replaces the paternalistic orientation of the Law of 1948 of the Juvenile Court, by a non-repressive regime, it is sanctioning and educational. The law ultimate objective is the «superior interest of the child» which has to evaluate a technical, professional, specialized and multidisciplinary team. The Law regulates the responsibility of persons over 14 and under 18, and imposes «measures» (not penalties) that are applied with great flexibility. The direction of the procedure is placed in the hands of the prosecutor, not the judge.
