Advisement, First Appearance

(1) At the first appearance before the court after the filing of a petition, the juvenile and his or her parents, guardian, or other legal custodian shall be advised by the court of their constitutional and legal rights as set forth in rule 3 of the Colorado rules of juvenile procedure. Such advisement shall include the possibility of restorative justice practices, including victim-offender conferences if applicable. The advisement regarding restorative justice practices does not establish any right to restorative justice practices on behalf of the juvenile, and failure to provide an advisement regarding restorative justice practices does not constitute any legal error by the court.
