Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Juvenile Delinquency and Protection Act
Respondent, a 13-year-old minor, was charged as a juvenile with 2 counts of possession of a controlled substance, based on illegal drugs which police officers confiscated from Respondent's person. A 13-year-old would not have believed he could have denied officer's 2 requests to "come here" and avoid police without raising further suspicion. Thus, Respondent did not consent to police encounter; but his violation of curfew ordinance made intrusion reasonable, given Respondent's young age and late hour.(HOFFMAN and CUNNINGHAM, concurring.)
