County of Riverside. The lawsuit was filed in a federal court in Riverside County. The lawsuit claimed the County had placed unfair and illegal penalties against youth for misbehaving at school. The judge agreed that the lawsuit would be a “class action,” on behalf of a large group of people who were ever referred to the YAT program or put on a probation contract through the YAT program. You may be one of those people. The people involved in the lawsuit agreed on what changes need to happen and settled the lawsuit. If the judge thinks the settlement is fair and approves the settlement, you may have rights that you should know about. Before the Court approves the settlement, you can learn what was agreed to in the settlement, ask any questions you may have, and if you disagree with something, you can share your objections with the judge. You are a member of the “plaintiff class” if were ever referred to the YAT program under California Welfare & Instructions Code section 601. You can be a class member even if you were never placed on a YAT contract. “Section 601” usually includes behavior that is a “status offense,” meaning that it’s only an offense if done by someone under the age of 18. Examples of that kind of “offense” are being defiant to your teachers or parent, or being truant in school, or violating curfew. If you were referred to the YAT program by your school, you may have been referred for a “Section 601” offense. The proposed settlement is for injunctive relief. This means that Riverside County will have to make important changes to the YAT program that were identified in the lawsuit and do some things differently to protect youth’s rights. For example, the County will no longer accept referrals from schools to the YAT program for anything under section 601. As another example, the County will now make sure youth have a lawyer before they have to agree to anything in the YAT program. The settlement is for non-monetary relief and does not give any class member any money. The settlement does pay the plaintiffs’ lawyers for the costs related to the lawsuit and for the fees charged by the plaintiffs’ lawyers for their time spent on the lawsuit.

County of Riverside. The lawsuit challenges the constitutionality of the Youth Accountability Team (“YAT”) program, a juvenile diversion program run by Riverside County (the “County”). The lawsuit raised numerous concerns over the penalties imposed on children accused of certain actions like school misbehavior. The lawsuit alleged that the YAT program had placed thousands of children on onerous YAT probation contracts on the basis of common teenage behavior, including for children’s “persistent or habitual refusal to obey the reasonable and proper orders or directions of school authorities” under California Welfare & Institutions Code (WIC) Section 601(b). The lawsuit further alleged that the YAT program violated children’s due process rights by failing to give them adequate notice of their rights and failing to provide them with counsel. The lawsuit further alleged that the program imposed intrusive and unconstitutional contract terms that allowed officers to search children in violation of their rights to be free from unreasonable search and seizure and imposed supervision conditions that restricted their expressive and associational rights. The lawsuit also alleged that the YAT program’s referral practices led to racial disparities. The lawsuit primarily requested declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as nominal damages and Plaintiffs’ costs and attorneys’ fees. The lawsuit requested that the court: • declare Section 601(b) WIC, as well as the County’s application of Section 601 WIC, to be unconstitutionally vague and prohibit the County from enforcing Section 601 WIC in the future; • declare that the County’s placement of children on YAT probation without providing adequate notice and under coercive conditions to violate due process; • prohibit the County from placing children on YAT contracts without due process of law and without providing access to an attorney; • declare the County’s searches of homes, belongings, and persons and drug testing to violate children’s rights to be free from unreasonable searches; • prohibit the County from conducting similar searches in the future; • declare that the County had violated children’s free speech and associational rights by prohibiting children from associating with anyone not approved of by the County; • prohibit the County from prohibiting children placed on YAT from associating with others not approved of by the County; • declare that the County’s operation of the YAT program has a significant adverse impact on Black an...
