Juvenile detention center
Jugendarrest stations ( JAA ) are institutions for the enforcement of Jugendarrest (short-term custodial up to 4 weeks) as the heaviest growth medium below the threshold of Jugendstrafe ( § 16 JGG ). The young people (14 up to and including 17 years of age) or adolescents (18 up to and including 20 years of age) in this area of the penal system did not show any harmful tendencies, nor did they attract attention with acts in which the severity of the guilt required the imposition of at least six months long juvenile sentence. In these special institutions, they should experience the normally first deprivation of liberty, with strict separation from the juvenile penal system and especially from the standard penal system for adults with special educational supervision. The prison judge is always the youth judge of the local court responsible for the place of execution ( Section 90 JGG ).
The execution of arrest in NRW is regulated in the Youth Arrest Act (JAVollzG), which contains special regulations for treatment, accommodation and care as well as daily routine and leisure activities, but also disciplinary measures and health care. Some of the other federal states still have youth arrest regulations, but these are also to be changed to a legal regulation.
