Different types of Wake North Carolina Juvenile Petition — Delinquent: 1. Initial Petition: This is the first petition filed by the district attorney or juvenile court counselor to initiate the legal proceedings against the juvenile who is suspected of committing delinquent acts.

Amended Petition: In certain circumstances, the initial petition might be amended to include additional charges, modifications to existing charges, or corrections of any errors or omissions. The amended petition provides updated information regarding the case and ensures that all relevant details are properly addressed. 3. Transfer Petition: If the alleged delinquent act is of a severe nature or if the juvenile has a prior history of delinquency, the district attorney or the juvenile court counselor might file a transfer petition. This petition aims to transfer the case from the jurisdiction of the juvenile court to the adult criminal court, where the juvenile will be treated as an adult offender. 4. Disposition Petition: Once the court has determined the guilt or innocence of the juvenile, a disposition petition may be filed. This petition provides recommendations and proposed consequences for the juvenile's delinquent behavior. It outlines the appropriate actions the court should take to address the matter, such as probation, counseling programs, community service, or placement in a juvenile facility. 5. Review Petition: In cases where the disposition petition does not have a final disposition, a review petition can be filed to reassess the progress of the juvenile's rehabilitation or to modify the disposition if necessary.
