Pursuant to § 26-7A-125 , the Supreme Court hereby adopts the following juvenile graduated response grid and rules to guide court services officers in determining the appropriate response to a violation or compliance with the conditions of juvenile probation. It is the policy of the Unified Judicial System that violations of probation be addressed in a timely, consistent and reasonable manner by use of a graduated response grid. The use of graduated sanctions and incentives is intended to achieve public safety by holding juvenile offenders accountable for their behavior and reinforcing positive behavior.
