Abstract: A SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE ARGUES THAT JUDGES HAVE A CONTINUING RESPONSIBILITY AFTER PLACEMENT DECISIONS TO REVIEW THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE CARE WHICH THEY HAVE ORDERED, AND THAT EACH STATE SHOULD HAVE A STATUTE MANDATING JUDICIAL REVIEW. THEN, A PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL DISTRICT ATTORNEYS ASSOCIATION SUGGESTS THAT PROSECUTORS SHOULD REPRESENT COURT SERVICES BEFORE THE COURT WHEN IT BECOMES CLEAR THAT A TREATMENT PROGRAM IS NOT FULFILLING THE COURT'S EXPECTATIONS. FINALLY, A STAFF COUNSEL FOR THE JUVENILE RIGHTS PROJECT OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION ARGUES THAT DEFENSE ATTORNEYS ALSO HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO SEE THAT PLACEMENT AGENCIES PROCEED WITH OCURT ORDERED SERVICES IN THE INTERESTS OF THEIR CLIENTS. NARRATED REFERENCES TO CASE HISTORIES PROVIDE EXAMPLES. THE AUDIOTAPE CASSETTE IS SUITABLE FOR A GENERAL AUDIENCE, A TABLE OF CONTENTS IS INCLUDED. NO FURTHER SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED.
