Qué contiene
La explicación oficial está en inglés; todavía no hay resumen en palabras sencillas.
Under current law, in a case involving sexual abuse, human trafficking, incest, neglect or abandonment of a dependent person, child endangerment, or sexual exploitation of a minor, a prosecuting witness who is a child (under the age of years) is entitled to have the witness’s interests represented by a guardian ad litem at all stages of the proceedings in such cases. If a prosecuting witness is 14, 15, 16, or years of age and would be entitled to the appointment of a guardian ad litem if the prosecuting witness was under the age of 14, a court may appoint a guardian ad litem for such a prosecuting witness if the requirements for the appointment of the guardian ad litem are met and the guardian ad litem agrees to participate without compensation.
