Answer:

True

Explanation:

A Juvenile according to the law, is a person under the age of 18 years involved in an Illegal act. They are not regarded as adults under the law as they are not tried in an open court or given the same punishments as adult criminal offenders. Instead, they go through a process of rehabilitation. The process of rehabilitation begins with obtaining a Predisposition Report.  

A Predisposition Report is predominantly used in cases of juvenile delinquency to ascertain the right rehabilitation program for the Juvenile. The report is drafted by a probation officer and subsequently given to the judge to rule on. The report contains all the information on the Juvenile, which includes a medical history, the offence committed, social records, etc.  However, it is important to note that, the process differs in states.  This process helps the court adjudicate the matter as all the necessary facts and evidence are before it.
