Answer 1

Adjudication, detention, and arraignment are terms used in both adult and juvenile court systems.

Step-by-step explanation:

Match the term in the adult court system with the corresponding term in juvenile court:

1. Adjudication: The process of making a judicial decision on a case in court. In the adult court system, this term refers to the final decision of guilt or innocence after a trial. In the juvenile court system, this term refers to the process of determining whether a juvenile is responsible for the alleged delinquent act.
2. Detention: The act of holding someone in a secure facility before trial or as a result of being found guilty. In the adult court system, this term refers to the pretrial confinement of a defendant. In the juvenile court system, this term refers to the temporary placement of a juvenile in a secure facility while awaiting further court proceedings.
3. Arraignment: The hearing where the charges against a defendant are read and the defendant is asked to enter a plea. In the adult court system, this term refers to the formal reading of charges and the defendant's plea. In the juvenile court system, this term refers to a similar process where the charges against a juvenile are read and the juvenile is asked to admit or deny the charges.
