SMOOT. Attorney 1911 JUVENILE Copyrighted, 1911, by PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION of Chicago NOTE. This book is intended to aid all social workers, either in the field or in court. The text in most instances is a condensed statement of the law. The marginal references indicate where the law in full may be found. Persons who use this manual should consult the full text cited whenever there is any doubt as to the application or construction of the law in question.

Before an information is filed by any 82 person other than the state's attorney, one of the judges shall examine the same and may ex- amine the person presenting it and require other evidence and satisfy himself that there is probable cause for filing the same and so endorse the same. Every information shall set forth the offense with reasonable certainty, sub- stantially as required in an indictment, and the proceedings thereon shall be the same, as near as may be, as upon an indictment in the criminal court of Cook county, excepting as is by this act otherwise provided. Any person com- mitted for a supposed criminal offense and not admitted to bail and not tried within four months after the date of arrest, shall be set at liberty by the court, unless the delay shall hap- pen on the application of the prisoner, or unless the court is satisfied that due exertion has been made to procure the evidence on the part of the people and that there is reasonable ground to believe that such evidence may be procured within the next sixty days, in which case the court may continue the case for such time as may be necessary, not exceeding said sixty days; provided, however, that if said person be not tried within sixty days, no further continuance shall be granted and said person shall be set at liberty PRACTICE IN CASES OF FIFTH CLASS SUM- sec. 312.

A warrant may issue in the first instance if the facts constituting the offense also constitute a violation of the criminal code, and if some person files a complaint under oath. A warrant may issue in the first instance upon 83 the affidavit of any person that an ordinance has been violated and that the person making the complaint has reasonable grounds to be- lieve that the person charged is guilty thereof, and will escape unless arrested, and stating the facts upon which such belief is based. The judge must be satisfied, however, that the arrest should be made. Any police officer may arrest, on view, any person seen in the act of violating within the city any ordinance, whenever such violation is made punishable by fine or otherwise. sec. si3b.
