Summary:Since 2002, the families who wish it have had the possibility to read “their” record at the juvenile court. These pre-trial conferences are scheduled so as to respect the principle of an adversarial process and to mobilize families. Observing these scenes for more than a year allows to question the way the parents take note of “their” record, their reactions and defense.
